Product Technologies and Benefits:
- Precision Kerox Cartridges: The cartridge’s job is to deliver smooth handle operation and water flow, throughout hundreds of thousands of uses, without ever leaking – all while under a punishing 60 pounds-per-square-inch of pressure. For these reasons, it is quite literally what “makes or breaks” the faucet. Kraus understands this, so they take no shortcuts here, importing their cartridges from the world’s leading manufacturer of high-end precision ceramic disc cartridges, Kerox in Hungary.
- Swiss-Made NeoPerl Aerators: Aerators are possibly the most under-appreciated component within faucets. Not only do they soften the stream (preventing splashing), but they also control the straightness, diameter, overall delivery of water. Fortunately, like their cartridges, Kraus recognizes this and chooses to takes no gambles here – they import their aerators from NeoPerl in Switzerland, the world’s leading manufacturer for high-end and specialty aerators.
- Heavily Certified: Kraus has gone to great lengths to be able to provide you, the homeowner, the rest-easy satisfaction knowing that your faucet is certified and listed by all the major product testing boards in the U.S. and Canada. This means that this faucet is deemed safe to use and that it meets all applicable building codes. Certifications and listings include: UPC, cUPC, CSA, IAPMO, ANSI and SCC.

Does the KPF-1612 faucet show water spots? Is there an instruction for maintenance: what to clean it with, etc?
A. Good morning Esther, the Kraus KPF-1612 will not show water spots, however if you have hard water it may show spots and also perhaps leave residue from the hard water. But if clean regularly it will hold, cleaning suggestions are after every use with mild soap warm water, no bleach no corrosive chemical cleaners. I hope this helps!

Love it so far
After a few weeks, still loving this faucet. The installers guessed it cost $800 and couldn't believe we bought it for $200. They said the materials were not 'amazing' but were very good, so they expect it to last. You won't find another faucet with this kind of design for anywhere close to this price. Super fast shipping along with the sink we ordered as well.

Worked Great!

Quality faucet
Chose this faucet for two features: single hole design, because cleaning around one small site is so easy, and its spring feature. My husband is a remodeling contractor and said that the installation was quite straight forward and simple. The handle function is extremely smooth allowing for infinite positions. It is a sleek, heavy, professional looking faucet, which produces an impressive regular water flow as well as a great spray which does not allow for splashing on you when you place something under it, like my old Moen would do. Have only had it installed in my new kitchen for a few weeks, so time could tell a different story, but for now its perfect. Comes in its own protective, cloth bag too! Loved that!

Faucet looks great, functionality appears to slip
Beautiful faucet, looks expensive and has a clean chrome finish. We have been using this faucet for approximately 2 months and the quality appears to be slipping. It appears to be leaking near the handle causing water to build up behind the kitchen stink. The hose appears to be leaking slightly as well; however, it drips in the sink so it is not a big deal. We are moving and have ordered the faucet again... hoping this time it holds out as it's worth the chance for the price!!

awesome faucet
My whole family loves this faucet. We installed it a few days ago and it was simple. It looks amazing. The guys putting in the granite just loved it. It works great, is very sturdy, heavy duty construction, and adds great character to the kitchen.

Good value !
The faucet arrived very timely and was installed without a glitch. It looks beautiful with the Kraus sink and works great. The quality is superb and the price was very reasonable. I would recommend to everyone ! It looks great in my "cottage " style kitchen.

Beautiful item
I purchased this because it was cheaper than anyplace else I found. Wasn't expecting much for the money, but was really suprised at the quailty of it. Its a beautiful faucet, real heavy well made.
Can't wait to get it installed. I am remodeling my kitchen with new tile countertops and new sink, this will look beautiful with it.
Thanks fauctet direct.

Beautiful!
We purchased this Krause faucet for our kitchen remodel. About a week away from installing it yet - but out of the box this faucet is just beautiful. It's heavy and solid and big. Found this on faucetdirect for about 1/2 the cost of a discounted box store. The shipping was fast and it came packaged in it's own shipping "sock". When I showed it to my contractor - he was floored. Cannot wait to see it installed.
