Review: LOUD when turned beyond 30% water flow (update:fixed!) - It's beautiful and feels extremely high quality, but we bought and installed two of these in our bathroom and they are insanely loud with a higher pitched whine if you turn them up around 20-30% flow. It has been working fine to just not turn them up very much and you can still have enough pressure to get the job done, but this is a major defect if you ask me. Edit: There is a little plastic flow limiter in the tip of the faucet causing all this noise. Unscrew the metal piece, remove the plastic piece, and reassemble.
Review: Beautiful and Solid- LOVE this faucet - Finally installed this baby on a new white Carrera marble vanity in a Vintage bathroom. It's beautiful, solid and easy to install. I went with it because I have a chrome wall mount kitchen faucet in the same vintage style and we have been happy with it (for the same reasons) as well. For us the kingston brass products have been terrific. They have convincing vintage style, solid and sturdy for modern performance and they are a fraction of the cost of the big names that you find making other Vintage/retro plumbing fixtures. Now if only they would make an antique tub/shower system that's just as good ! So happy I had to share a picture
