Most "chrome faucets" are actually chrome plated plastic. These are solid brass. Plastic is OK for some fixtures but if you want a really substantial faucet you'll have to pay for it.I bought two sets for a bathroom remodel. Despite having flushed the lines before installing the valves, one of the four valves leaked. AS sent a replacement cartridge, no problem. Replacement is simple. After that, no leaks at all, perfect. Also, be sure to remove the aerator and flush everything for a few minutes if you don't want it to begin its life already clogged - there was some junk in the brass castings. To be fair, the instructions direct you to do this, but it would be nice if they arrived already clean from the factory.The cable operated popup drain idea is superb. I wouldn't want anything else ever again. Installation and adjustment was ridiculously easy.The instructions say you can install the drain with just the included foam washer and no need for plumber's putty. Nice idea in theory, but it might not work in practice. One of my drains sealed well using just the foam washer, the other one didn't. Identical sinks. Not a big deal since I expected to use putty anyway.Pros:- Cable operated popup drain. This is its best feature, beyond question.- Good quality, solid brass construction.- Clever splined and keyed valve inserts make it easy to align the handles within a couple degrees.Cons:Minor complaints amount to crud in the casting, having to get a replacement cartridge, and the need for putty despite the instructions. The popup drain seal isn't perfect but I haven't found any recent designs that are.One more thing. It would be nice to include a large washer for each valve body. Once the plastic valve body nut contacts the underside of a granite countertop, the resulting friction makes the nut difficult to tighten further. If it's not tight enough the valve body will rotate while turning the handle. The solution is to have a helper push down on the valve from above the countertop. This compresses the rubber washer as you rotate the nut from below, making it tighter than would be possible if the rubber weren't compressed. If they included a washer to go between the valve body nut and countertop, it would be easier to tighten the nut, compressing the rubber seal, without additional help.American Standard is offering a 10% rebate on purchases of 2 or more products through 12/6/11 - check their website.

I like this faucet because it feels substantial and not plastic. It really dresses up our bathroom and gives a real classy look and feel. Easy to clean too. I also like the styling of it. Get this....I was able to find towel bars and a new toilet paper holder that have the same shape so everything looks put together and complete.Thanks so much!
