Looks and works great, but Delta is advertising the incorrect hose length!
After researching several faucets, I bought this one for a few main reasons: it looks cool (esp in Arctic Stainless), has 3 water settings (2.0gpm, 1.0gpm, spray), has a 59" hose, and the price is great! After installing, I agree with 3 of those: it definitely does look cool, the water settings work great (very smooth solid motion and retains the spray/stream setting), and its worth the price.However, the hose is NOT 59" as advertised, but is in fact 54". Who cares about 5", you ask? (*snicker*) Well, my kitchen layout is such that my water filter/dispenser is within reach of a 59" hose, but just out of reach of the included 54" hose. Naturally I assumed that Delta, with its lauded customer service, would handle this like pros. After all, not only does Amazon list a 59" hose, but Delta's own website for this faucet does also!So I emailed Delta, and this is the response I got: "All of our hose assembly lengths are now 54" date of modification 02/25/2015." That's right, not only did they switch to a shorter hose NINE MONTHS AGO, but they couldn't even be bothered to change the information on their own website. Basically, a human female can create a fully functional human baby from scratch faster than Delta can change the number "59" to the "54" on their own website.Now I know I'm making a big deal about a stinking hose, and this review will certainly be downvoted because we Amazon users don't like negative reviews for good products. So I'll leave it at this: this is a great faucet, worth 5 stars for its form/function/price, but knowingly misrepresenting the hose length followed by no effort to rectify the situation (delta has a longer hose that I feel they should have offered me) dings it one star.

Elegant and affordable!
My Wife recently decided to remodel our 1999 kitchen. Of course, deciding on fixtures via the internet is very hard, because the big box stores only carry what they want you to buy.Please take a look at the attached photo and I think you will agree, if you are looking for a modern, pull-out faucet, this artistic design is beautiful, yet affordable. As the description reads, it does look a bit like a weeping willow branch or something like it. We particularly like that it does not stand too high and obstruct our kitchen window view. It also stretches out to the middle of our kitchen sink, so we can drip our faucet on cold winter nights and not hear the pinging water on the S.S. sink bottom. The faucet stretches out to the middle of the sink drain hole.We've been using it for several months now, and it is strong, well made, and functional. I do not care for the plastic buttons, but everything else on it is made of metal, which gives it a quality feel. For the looks of a very expensive faucet, this Delta product is a bargain.

A good detachable kitchen sink faucet but not the best
I kept looking at various detachable kitchen faucets and reading the reviews and I decided to settle on this one. The quality is good although some of the materials look cheap, like the tubes and the plastic sprayer. Installation was pretty straight forward, although the instructions leave a lot to be desired. If you're somewhat savvy, though, you can figure out the installation because there's very few things that can go wrong with installing these things. It also saves you about $150 in plumbers' fees or so. The only thing that's highly recommend is for you to test the water flow on the third tube before the final assembly--you do that underneath your kitchen sink on a bucket by turning on the water valves a little bit and pulling up the faucet handle. After that you just plug it in with the central pipe inside the faucet (by attempting to follow the instructions) and that's it. The installation does give you the option if your sink has three holes or just one. If it comes with three hole you use the elongated plate to cover the other two holes. If not, there's a cylindrical plate that attaches to the bottom of the stem for a nicer trim.Now, as to its performance--and hence the 4-star rating. I found that often times when you push down the lever the water is still running and that's because if the lever is not completely centered the water will not shot down completely, which a bit annoying. So, if you were using hot or cold water you'd need to center the handle/lever in order for the water to completely shut down. Also, the buttons underneath the detachable sprayer are bit cumbersome to operate but they're efficient. Pulling out the sprayer is easy and it extends sufficiently to reach well outside the sink to fill a bucket, for instance--but at some point the hose may kink. The sprayer also swivels back and forth so if you have a two-sided sink it will reach both sides just fine, which I find really convenient. My old faucet stopped doing that after accumulation a lot of hard water deposits (calcium and what not). The faucet shape and style is just okay. They tried to make it so stylish but... Price is a bit high given the low quality of the tubes and the fact that the sprayer is plastic, although it looks metallic. All in all, I've had this faucet for about a month or so and its performance has been fine. I keep checking for leaks under the sink but so far, so good. Time will only tell how this faucet performs for the years to come.

Worked well for about year, then began leaking
I purchased this faucet in December of 2015 and installed it in January of 2016. It worked well for a little over a year, but has started leaking from both the faucet head and down the faucet handle within the last month. I checked under the sink to see if there was anything wrong with the hoses or pressure, but everything is as it should be. It appears the faucet itself is defective or just not built to last.--Will update with replacement/refund policy when I figure out how it works.--Update 1 - faucet is leaking underneath the sink and we've had to turn the water to the sink off completely. water trickling down the handle was causing slow flooding of the countertop.

3 1/2 stars
I purchased this Delta Linden kitchen faucet a few months ago and finally had it installed. The positives: It swivels very easily, it is easy to switch between stream and spray, and the sprayer works perfectly. The negative: It is very difficult to adjust the water temperature. Hot and cold are the norm, but anything in between is difficult to set. This is annoying when washing items by hand.Slight change to above review: I just discovered that if the faucet handle is lifted to it's maximum height, it is easier to adjust the water temperature. It shouldn't be necessary, however, to always have to use maximum pressure.

Previous faucet was the same make and model only chrome, started dripping after 4 years.
The chrome finish is shiny and needs to be polished up to look good. The stainless steel isn't shiny, doesn't show fingerprints and matches the stainless steel sink. Moving the faucet back and forth on a dual bowl sink eventually wore the metal on the inside next to the cartridge and it started leaking. Slamming the handle down abruptly to stop the dripping is only a temporary fix. 5 years is forever, for a well used family faucet. The pull-out sprayer is plastic to reduce weight.

Like the ability for 2 different spray pattern
It fits well in my setup, looking for something that is not go way up with the sprout coming down. Only issue with the design is it does not keep the water temperature setting, so have to adjust the temp every time, which is a bit inconvenient. Like the ability for 2 different spray pattern.

I have given it 3 stars as the appearance was fine and I liked the Arctic resist finish
I cannot truly rate this product as I have returned it to Amazon. I have decided to buy another Delta faucet, but not a pullout. I have given it 3 stars as the appearance was fine and I liked the Arctic resist finish.
