does the handle only move forward and not behind ? I have no clearance behind the faucet due to the backsplash.

The cold water is about 30 degrees in the front and the hot about 30 degrees in the back. I just measured it it's 2.5 inch you need to calculate.

It moves forward AND backward. The measurements are as the previous message states.. I love the looks but found out when it was installed that it is a "low flow" faucet. Guess we missed that description. I do miss the full force flow tho'.

Yes- the top of the faucet moves from side to side, but once installed, the handle on the bottom stays in one spot.

Yes, the handle returns to vertical but does not go backward. It goes forward to get both hot and cold water.

You only need to pull down/forward or pull to right. You don't push the handle back at all.

My backsplash is 3 inches from the center of my faucet spiket. Handle is on the side, straight back means cold, but you pull out to run the water. The clearance for the on portion is fine with 3 inches (not from the back of the edge of the faucet, but middle of the faucet is only 3 inches and it is plenty room. Hope this make sense....

Yes, it pivots forward as well as left right. I use it as a fixed shower add well.

Yes. The entire stem moves both to the right and left . The faucet head extends about 18 inches in all directions. Customer service is great. I had an issue with the faucet head, and they sent me a nww one, no charge

Hi, first of all...this faucet is beautiful! The stainless is a nice quality and we are very happy with our purchase. Our faucet has a clearance of 4" from the center of the base to the backsplash. You want to be able to freely move the handle and keep in mind the cold setting is towards the back.

I installed the faucet, and have it on the right side. I see no reason why you could not put the handle in front if that is your preference. Should not be a problem.

The handle would be even and straight, if cocked slightly to the front or back, it can drip. It is not difficult to make it even. I love the faucet and have been using it for about 1 yr already and no problems.

The way the faucet is pictured is as far back as the handle goes. It will the tilt forwards for cold and to the right for water pressure. I hope this information helps!

We installed this shower head last year. We didn't remove anything from the back. I am seeing the answer below stating you will have free range of motion by removing it. We don't move ours because it is in a very small shower on a houseboat.

If you're asking about the clearance needed behind the faucet above the countertop: When I pull up the drain lever on mine to its highest point (the point at which it sticks out most, since it's angled slightly backwards), the rear edge of the lever sticks out about 1 3/8" behind the base of the faucet. I've got a single-hole mount without the extra 3-hole escutcheon plate. When the lever is pushed all the way down, it extends about 5/8" behind the base.

I attempted to swivel the Hose Hideaway and it appears that it will go all the way around. (360 degrees) The only thing preventing it from going around was the hose connecting it to the faucet.

You can have the back base of the faucet almost flush with your backsplash and still be able to put the handle all the way back. However you will not be able to put your fingers between the backsplash and behind the handle. I have 3/4 of an inch from the back base of the faucet and the backsplash. To allow water flow you move the handle outwards. Forward and backwards dictates hot and cold. I hope this makes sense.

Short answer: No. Longer Answer: The handle to control volume and temperature and is not separate from the faucet - it is all one piece. The faucet spout moves 180 degrees, side to side. So, if you mount the faucet with the handle to the front rather than to the right the faucet spout will rotate over only 1/2 of the sink 90 degrees) and then 90 degrees more to the left outside of the sink area. So no, you can not mount with the handle in the center rather than to the right as designed. BTW, it is a great faucet, solidly built. And, it comes with a long set of stainless water supply lines already attached to the faucet.

The backsplash is not attached. The top is factory glued. The holes are standard with the faucet and handles included.
