CREA Single Handle Bar Faucet with Pull Out Sprayer - Chrome, 3 Hole, Deck Plate, Mini Prep Faucet for Kitchen, Bathroom and Outdoor Use

Rarely give 5 stars, but in terms of build and value for money, this hit the sweet spot. As a handyman, I install dozens of faucets every year. Client wanted a compact pull out sprayer on a limited budget. Options at most shops were $200+. Paid less than a quarter of that for this one. Installed easily and works like a charm. Buyers should note that there is no "button" for the sprayer (as the description suggests). You must pull down on the spigot section to turn it into a spray. But pulls out and retracts easily, magnet holds it in place, extends well over the sink bowl, and fits under the overhanging cabinets with plenty of room to spare. Seems sturdy too. I'd recommend for RVs, boats, and other places where space is a premium. I'll use this model again for sure.

I think these faucets are aimed mostly at bar sinks, but I think it works great in the bathroom. It's nice to have a removable head to rinse down the sides of the sink rather than just sweeping water around with your hand. The faucet is attractive and functions perfectly. It's a bit larger than your average bathroom faucet, but the convenience is worth it. Installing it is very easy, you only need a wrench to tighten the water line connections and a screwdriver to tighten the fastening ring to the bottom of the counter. It took me longer to remove the old faucet than to install the new one.Bear in mind - this is NOT a push button nozzle to switch to spray mode - you twist the head instead. The little black dot is ornamental (and perhaps made to make some customers think it's a button). Not a big deal though.If you're installing in a three hole counter situation, the included plate isn't wide enough to cover the extra holes. I bought another one on Amazon for around ten bucks that matched the brushed nickel perfectly.I installed this faucet in the guest bathroom, then my wife liked it so much we bought two more for the master bath.

I purchased this product because I wanted the height and the pull out sprayer. I preferred this design to the others that are available if you search Amazon for a bar sink faucet. It was also important to me that there be a magnetic connection between the pull out sprayer and the receiver. It is magnetic, as the hanging paper clip on one of my pictures demonstrates. The faucet arrived in good shape, with no evident damage or manufacturing defects. Time will only tell when it comes to long term appearance and durability. It looks good now. There was no tool for removing the aerator included with the product that I received that some reviewers have mentioned. It did include size adapters, which I didn't need, for connecting the faucet hoses to the water supply valves, and a tool to assist tightening them.I'm generally pleased with the product. I got it installed in an older existing vanity and sink and it didn't leak. So the rest of my review will focus on some comments and various issues, none a deal killer necessitating a product return, but sufficient to move the rating needle from five stars down to four.Perhaps most disappointing for me is the aeration. This is not the only faucet that has subordinated good aeration functionality to appearance considerations. The purpose of aeration is to keep the flow of water from splashing when it touches objects, such as when you are washing your hands. Although this faucet does aerate to a degree, it doesn't do a good job. Wash your hands, etc., and water splashes all over the place and you are faced with finding a cloth to wipe up. Yes, the water flow could be carefully adjusted and moderated when turning it on, but that is the inconvenience that aeration is supposed to make unnecessary. Why have aeration if it won't do what it's supposed to do.Secondly, there is a black button on the pull out sprayer that will stop the water flow AS LONG AS YOU HOLD IT DOWN. If it slips out of your hands for any reason, water will spray wherever its aimed at the moment. It would be better if it was a matter of push to turn off, and push again to turn back on.The installation instructions are nearly inscrutable and overly brief at one side of an 8" x 11" page. They seem to be biased to installations of the faucet in new construction situations and not when retrofitting the faucet into an existing vanity and sink as was my situation and I assume that of many other purchasers.Look at panel #2 in my picture of the instructions. Would you know from looking at it, as I learned from another review, that this panel is attempting to show you to run some water through the supply pipes to clear possible sediment? Could you do it at your installation?Panel #1 of the instructions shows the recommended tools. My picture shows the tools I actually used. (Admittedly the red tool wasn't actually used for the installation, but was very useful for turning off the water supply valves.) One tool pictured in the instructions is a bit misleading. It looks like an ordinary screw driver. But look at my picture under the sink and at panel #5. If you are installing in an existing vanity you will need to reach screws up behind the sink. The screw driver in panel #5 could never do that. A screw driver with an extra long shank would work. In my case I purchased a hex driver extension shown in the photo.The instructions assume the water supply is from the wall. In my single story house, as shown in the picture, the water supply is up from the floor. It was necessary to purchase extensions to the supply hoses that come with the faucet. Not too big a problem once I found a knowledgeable sales person at the local big box.One final note, at the same time as I installed the faucet, I also installed a new drain stopper in the sink. It was very useful to have that plumbing out of the way while installing the faucet.

It is missing a spray feature but it works perfectly for our application. The on off button is very useful. It’s size is ideal for small sink spaces. We replaced our in our RV and this is gorgeous. Seems to be well made although not solid brass but appears so. It works wonderfully in our situation.

This is a great product we installed this into our trailer to replace the faucet from the trailer manufacture that was less than optimal

We added a sink in the kitchen. The project was already a bit pricey, so we didn't want to spend too much on a faucet, but we also didn't want to get something that looked cheap... so we decided to try our luck with this one. We are VERY happy with this faucet. It looks great next to the chrome espresso machine and fits quite nicely in our kitchen. Amazing value for the money on this item. No issues with install, and works perfectly. I did notice that the pull out hose is not braided metal like our other faucet, but I don't mind that as long as it lasts. I hope this review is helpful.
