American Standard 7298.152.002 Heritage Wall-Mount 8-Inch Swivel Spout Kitchen Faucet with Metal Lever Handles, Chrome

I replaced the original faucet on my 100 yr old home twenty years ago. The one I bought had a soap holder and a less elevated spout. When you turned the handles for water, they interfered with the spout (poor design). The most annoying problem was that they always leaked calling for the plumber or do-it-yourself fixes that were never permanent. They finally failed by stripping the threads on the handles after twenty years of annoying use.
This faucet has a taller spout that doesn't get tangled up in the handles. It has ceramic disk 1/4 turn handles that easily turn water on and off (PRAISE THE LORD!) and sadly, no soap dish. It looks great (nicely vintage), cost 100 dollars to install, and hopefully will give me some years of service with no further plumbing visits. I use an Aquasana water filter with it, and that was the hardest thing to install because this new faucet only has two threads to turn it on to. The plumber got it on and I pray I won't have to ever take it...Read more
