VCCUCINE Best Modern Commercial Brushed Nickel Stainless Steel Single Lever Pull Out Sprayer Kitchen Faucet, High Arch Spring Pull Down Kitchen Sink Faucet

The media could not be loaded. I've always liked the pre-rinse style kind of sink faucet, I like the way they look and function in a more utilitarian sense. I decided to order this one because it had two faucets, the pre rinse style faucet and the pot filler spout. I was aware that I was buying a Chinese knock off faucet, but I had high hopes after the positive reviews this faucet had, and my experience buying other stuff like this in the past, my kitchen sink is also a Chinese knock off but it rocks. I have attached one photo and one video to this review to illustrate the problems I encountered.Anyway. When I received the faucet and opened up the box I was impressed with the weight and heft of the product. It felt more solid than I'd expected so my hopes got even higher. Installation was very easy, (I installed my sink and faucet on a temporary wood stand for now as I am in the middle of a kitchen remodel and my cabinets have not arrived yet, but this temporary install could not have effected the faucet in any way as it was still installed in to a solid piece of wood.)Immediately when I sent water through the faucet for the first time it started to leak from the area right above the pot filler, which leads me to explain the design flaw of the faucet that I found that I feel you should be aware of. This is where you should refer to the photo (not the video) attached to my review.The Design Flaw: The pre-rinse faucet is attached to the sink with a hose, but the fittings on this hose are super cheap ones and they do not rotate without unscrewing. On a slightly more expensive hose the part of the fitting marked "A" in my photo would rotate independently of the area marked "B", allowing the pre rinse to be moved around without loosening the nut ("B") and causing a water leak. The whole point of having the pre-rinse is to be able to move it around, and on this faucet moving the pre rinse around loosens the hose connection and causes a water leak. As it came from the factory the hose was not tightened down much at all, which caused a huge leak at first. I tightened the connection, but it came loose again after moderate use. The stock factory hose seemed like it would have required tightening every day.Had the faucet not broken a different way after 48 hours, I might have bought a nicer hose with nicer fittings to permanently solve this problem, but well, the thing broke so I just gave up and ordered a different faucet.How my unit broke: This is the place to refer to the video attached to my review. As you hopefully can tell, the pre-rinse sprayer started to sound like, I kid you not, a dolphin, about 48 hours after I installed the faucet. It didn't do it on the first night, but when I was doing dishes on the second night, it started to do this and never stopped. It's really annoying, and you can feel the whole faucet vibrating when the sprayer does this.I briefly looked in to finding a different, higher quality sprayer to attach to the end of, but by this point I was looking at replacing two of the parts of this sink with new ones that would add to the cost of this faucet, and decided that I should just return it and get a different faucet from a more reputable manufacturer.I had to leave this faucet installed while I waited for the new one to arrive, but now I've removed the VCCUCINE and will be returning it.

I have always wanted this type of faucet to cut down time rinsing dishes but I was worried that this faucet was going to look too industrial in a modern kitchen, but it actually looks pretty sleek! The next day after install, I saw that on current home renovation shows, that this faucet style is actually "on trend"!Packaging was very attractive (gift-able) sturdy and secure.The tubing for the sprayer is plastic covered, although on this "commercial" model it is very thick and looks as though it will stand up to the frequent friction. The sprayer has plenty of force and width to blast through a pile of dirty dishes, pots and pans in no time. If you're not familiar with this type of sprayer nozzle it's important to understand that when you depress the lever to spray there will be a little bit of pull/recoil on the hose from the extreme water pressure. (This is why there isn't a "stay on" function, if you were to let go, it would soak everything in a 360 degree radius as well as your ceiling.)Instructions were a little sparse but the pictures were nice and clear and I would have appreciated a few more steps shown. Installation on this was still a a breeze although even after using the thread/pipe tape we still had to really torque down on the hot/cold water connection to prevent any sprays or slow drips. We couldn't figure out what the plumber's silicone epoxy was intended for, so if we develop any leaks again we'll be slapping some of that on the outside of those connections. We also didn't have quite enough clearance to fully rotate the faucet handle backward, so we mounted the faucet with the handle "center front". We actually prefer it there, it's a shorter reach no matter which side you're working from.I love the pot-fill faucet, it has good height for filling tall pots without being too high, although this may depend on your sink depth.Removing the previous faucet proved to be bit trickier because our sink is a deep well on thick granite. Most tools we're the wrong angle, too short or too bulky to maneuver in such a small area. We discovered there is a tool designed for the job and purchased a "basin/faucet wrench" to fit over the long bolt to remove the nut attaching our current faucet. It was inexpensive and totally effective, so I'm glad to have it in my tool box.I can't speak for longevity as this is newly installed.

Unfortunately due to circumstances that have delayed my house construction this was just recently installed in my outdoor enclosed living area. It has not yet even been used but it leaks and has fallen completely apart. Some of the pieces inside the faucet crumbled which caused it to fail. I’m worried because I have one other one of the same brand that also was just installed and I hope it doesn’t fail too. Because it’s past the window of time I can no longer return it and no longer have the box it came in. I will not buy anything else this brand. It is attractive but if it doesn’t work it doesn’t matter how it looks. Its turned around backwards because the leak was staining the granite countertops that were standing in water. Wish I would have known not to buy this.

Great Faucet! Well built, very solid and heavy. Installed on our new black granite sick and it looks and works wonderful. Somehow the design seems to have also increased our water pressure by double. There was nothing wrong with our water pressure before but now it flows out with real force. The spray head is almost too strong! I did have to contact Vccucine because the sprayer started to leak water without pulling the sprayer handle and they send a new one that arrived in about a week and cured the issue. No hassle, no problem! Very happy with the purchase and also at a great price. Buy and be happy!!
