Can this faucet be mounted with the handle facing forward instead of to the right?

Now that its installed im not %100 sure but I believe so. It would be a little awkward though. But yes I think the handle section would install 360* if needed.Hope that helps. So far faucet has been good.

It depends. The top part of the faucet swivels about 180 degrees even after installed. There is some room for adjustment on the water valve (bottom handle), but is has to be installed to the right.

Hi. I emailed the company and asked them and they told me yes. I was afraid that placing it less than 3 " from the wall would cause problems. But it did not. But they told me the handle could be turned - we didn't have to do that but that's what they told us. WE LOVE THE FAUCET!! Email me with any other questions. Anne

Yes. The granite installers initially thought I would get my hand wet but we don't by putting it facing forward front and center under the top. I love this faucet and have been told this is a great buy. I bought 2, one for my laundry room, and both are facing forward. We couldn't put ours on the side because the upper level of granite was in the way of turning the water all the way cold. You can spin it around into any position you want before the installers glue it in place.

The faucet can only be installed on the right side, not left side option sorry.Kind Regards,The Sink Discounters

The handle can only be on the right side. The handle does allow for flow rate and temperature control

Hi Gail,Manufacturer says mount it facing right & we did. It appears to me the bottom of the faucet has a slightly oval shape. Rotating it to face forward may not allow you to use the deck plate which is used to cover the unused holes in the sink. If you have a 1-hole sink it would probably work. This is our 1st time with a right hand faucet & we actually like it better than a center handle because it provides more clear sink area. Dave Steele

I was originally going to mount it with the handle in front but I put it in sideways and it works just fine. I had a space problem putting the handle in front. My Corian sink is undermounted to the Corian top and the hole drilled needed to be offset another 3/8 of an inch to work. I would not worry about putting the handle to the side the way it's pictured. My marital factor initially disapproved of the side setup, but has not complained since day one.

I believe you can turn it but having it in the front is more convenient. I love love love this faucet. great quality and sturdy. I recommended my friends to buy this one too. the whole thing is metal which is really hard to find these days.

The faucet spins so the handle can be placed pretty much any where. Mine is to the left front on a corner hole installation. I love it.

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.

That's interesting, you're more observant than I was. Mine is installed and the handle is on the right as in the specs and it's on the right side of my sink. Would or could it be reversed if it was on the left side of the sink??

The faucet has a 360 spin. I suppose you could install it on the left but then everything would be reversed...for example the hot would be in the forward position and cold would be in the back position.

My husband looked at the manual and it looks like it could. You might want to reverse the tubes depending if you want the water temp a certain direction. With our right handed one the hot comes out when you press it towards the wall and the cold when you move it towards you. I guess it would be reversed from this mounted left handed. Good luck Kathy

It has to be mounted on the right side. The faucet only swivels 180 degrees. It would have to rotate 360 degrees in order to reverse the handle. Also as another responder mentioned, the hot and cold is limited to a fixed 90 position.

Pretty sure the box says it's Universal for the handle to face either direction. I love this door lock!

Sorry for my previous mistake! YES, the handle can rotate 360 degrees. Subsequently, it can be placed anywhere you like. The only drawback i've discovered with this faucet is, there's a small "O" ring holding the sprayer to the main body, which shouldn't last for more than a year.

We had to mount ours at an angle to keep the handle from hitting the back splash. One interesting thing we noted was that we're a right-hand favoring family but always tended to use our left hand when turning on our old faucet so we mounted the faucet with the handle on the left-hand side. I love this faucet by the way.

The faucet handle can be installed in any position. The tube where the water comes out can be turned 360 degrees after installation regardless of where the handle is located.
