American Standard 7298.252.002 Heritage Wall-Mount 8-Inch Swivel Spout Kitchen Faucet with Porcelain Lever Handles, Chrome

We have a 1940ties era house with the original tiled kitchen sink that requires a wall mount faucet. This model is to only one I've found that suits the style of the house and is reasonably attractive.

Bought this to replace an identical one that was leaking and had reached the end of its useful life after perhaps 25 years. I had replaced the original valve cartridges once and was now periodically replacing the rubber O-rings that sit under the valve cartridge on the hot water side. The ceramic valves do not last forever - they are contained in fragile plastic housings and are expensive and hard to find when you need to replace them. Corrosion had also broken through the chrome on one of the wall escutcheons. There are O-rings in the spout swivel that will also need periodic replacement or the joint will drip when you run the water.

Good quality, perfect look for an antique farmhouse sink. Our plumber thought it was a bit tricky to install to our sink situation, but said it would have been easy to mount to a wall. But it is in, and is working great. The swivel arm is nice and the fixture has a heavy duty feel to it.

When we received this the porcelain taps had previously been broken and replaced with stainless steel. It didn't say anything about this in the description so we were very disappointed when it arrived. Amazon was very good about the refund but as we couldn't wait to fix our broken kitchen faucet any longer we ended up having to buy a different faucet which wasn't as nice from a local hardware store.
