Why are they making faucets with the spouts so short in length? Literally touching the sink with your hands
1881690
What are you talking about? Mine is high above the sink and the water-stream goes angle so I am not touching anything. Maybe your sink raised above the counter?

it is at an angle so you don't need to worry, we have two of these an no issue

Can't answer the why make but will say the nozzle emits forward not straight down and the effect is, you don't hit the sink with your hands...Simple elegant.

I have this faucet and love it. It is not too short at all and the waterspout actually angles out, to the sink center, more towards your torso rather than directly over the drain so you do not get a lot of "back splash" towards the mirror. It is so easy to keep clean as well.

Honestly, for me it looks average on these types of faucets. the item is a piece of art. Thanks.

Then you are using the wrong sink maybe? I have no issues with touching the sink with this faucet.

If you are referring to the supply inlet tubes of the faucet that mounts to the wall and you connect the water supply lines to, they are only 1 & 1/2 inches long. Hope this helps, David

The length of the spout is approximately 5". I just installed three of these faucets in chrome and really like them. Mine are installed between the wall and sink and not in a corner so I can't help you there. The faucets do have a high arch and with the 5" reach, shouldn't be an issue. You can also call Moen customer support and get advice form them.

I have a single bowl sink, 32" wide, and this looks great with it. The faucet is one of the highlights of our kitchen. It's sleek and simple with a small footprint, so it's not overpowering in that sense. In terms of height, that's a matter of opinion. Yes, you can knock the sprayer down, but you get used to avoiding it and your coordination builds. I've gotten into the habit of turning it to the side and that just about solves the problem. Also, sometimes, I just let the sprayer hang free and turn the arm away completely. The neck isn't stretchy, so it doesn't fall into the sink. It pretty much just holds it shape in place. I even have the water running at full blast and the sprayer stays put. I have a single bowl sink, 32" wide, and this looks great with it. The faucet is one of the highlights of our kitchen.

The base / handle portion is about 2" high, and the faucet is about 6" up from there. Where the faucet's bend is is about 4" from the top of the sink. I'm not able to do the actual measurements, so that's to what all the "about" comments are referring.

It does not matter how far the water spouse extending out over the sink. What I saying is that the distance between the hot/cold water handles support column is set too close to the water spouse and is hard to clean in between.

Hi Denise, thanks for the question. As much as I wanted to, but we did not buy the Kraus faucet.. only the sink. I heard the faucet is one tall guy and my kitchen is small, crisp and modern. We instead went for a touchless Sensor activated faucet from costco. It was a great addition to my modern kitchen.

From the center of the upright part of fixture to the spout where water comes out. This is important because the sink vessel can be too far or too short and drippings of water will fall on counter or splash too close to edge.

Not sure I understand. It's an undermount. My faucets are mounted in the granite to the side of the sink.

That kind of faucet has an "air gap" in it. This faucet does not have that feature. Look for one in this search, they should have the three lines.

This faucet is not like some others that you may have seen. The handheld faucet is stationary. In other words, there is no extra hose that is under the sink that will allow you to extend it into the sink. You only get side to side swing and up and down motion only as the spring allows. Again it does not telescope as some other faucets allow. I find it manageable in our farmer's sink, but the telescoping would have been a "nice to have".

Hi, Janette. You are right, the front feet are longer. This gives me a perfectly flat surface, because the sink itself was installed with a slight tilt so that water goes down the drain. I was never even aware of the different length of the feet until you asked, but I see now that it is quite pronounced.

It is probably half the size of the base of the faucet. Mine came with paperwork that had a template with it. My granite guy actually used that, but has since thrown that away.

If you push the handle all the way back to the hot position or pull it all the way forward for cold. I would say the distance is less than an inch in either direction from measuring at that ring that you can see at the base of the faucet where it attaches to the counter mount. I have a granite surround which measures 5 inches from wall to sink edge, and my faucet is mounted in the center of it with approximately two and half inches behind and two and half inches in front from centerpoint and the handle does not get anywhere near the wall. I put a wooden spoon handle behind my faucet just now and it appeared to not go deeper than the actual water spout portion of the faucet, certainly not more than half an inch behind the actual faucet stem that transports the water.

I don't know why this question was directed to me but I would like to know if they are available as we installed it and it is not tall enough unless the faucet is set up higher and that does not look right.

It is that tall. It is a very nice faucet, there is plenty of room to put your hands (or whatever) under for washing. We love tha handle. It looks great, works great...I think you will love it!

I just bought a regular vessel sink faucet (its a normal sized one that has 1 handle and the water kind of flows over the side). The faucet I bought is regular sized and even with this bowl being smaller than usual, I didn't mind it. It still "looks right" to me if that makes sense. I am having the set installed this weekend so I will try and post pictures when it's finished.
