Delta 9997T-Dst Cassidy Pull-Down Bar/Prep Faucet - Bronze

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Delta made the kitchen faucet much easier as well as very attractive with this model. Coming in with dirty hands from the garage no longer means getting the faucet handle a mess. When I'm preparing my famous Mexican Feast for the family it's much easier to drain and rinse the ground beef by just tapping the faucet instead of having to set down the pan and strainer to get it turned on and then feel for the right temperature. The little kids can turn the water on and off by themselves with just a touch, and sometimes kids forget to turn things off so the auto shut-off has come in handy. My favorite feature of this faucet is the blue/red LED indicator that let me know the temperature of the water. I guess I never knew how much I would appreciate that instead of "running my finger back and forth under the water." I'm eager to see how long the batteries really last with as much as the whole family uses the sink, and the instructions say "up to two years." I've put in quite a few faucets over the years, and this one was about average amount of time and effort to put in.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an extremely functional and innovative piece of equipment that completes the contemporary look in my kitchen. I installed the faucet myself and did not encounter any substantial obstacles along the way. I just took my time and followed the instructions provided, using a basic assortment of tools. I am particularly fond of the fact that the Touch 2.0 technology allows for minimum touching of the faucet. I prefer to use my wrist to tap it on and then off again as my hands are invariably wet when I am working at the sink as you would expect! It is clever, because it can differentiate between touching and grabbing, thus eliminating any confusion about wanting the faucet on or off. Another feature that I really appreciate is the auto shut-off which gives me peace of mind if I am distracted at all. It activates after just four minutes. Another gem is the LED light functionality which lets me know the temperature of the water. It graduates from blue, then magenta, and finally red for the hottest flow. As with other Delta products I have been lucky enough to own, this one comes with the usual limited warranty. I am extremely pleased with this new addition to the kitchen and it is proving to be very useful indeed.
