The pot filler creates an aerated stream for filling pots and pitchers, while the pre-rinse sprayer helps to blast away food residue. The sprayer and pot filler rotate independently for a full range of motion. Magnetic docking snaps the sprayhead back into place. The high-arc design offers space for washing oversized items. Soft rubber nozzles allow you to easily wipe away mineral build-up. Lead-free all-metal construction and premium components, including a ceramic cartridge help ensure leak-free use. Available in a range of finishes, including Spot Free Finish that helps resist water spots and fingerprints. Pre-attached water lines and mounting hardware included.

Review: Love, love, love - I did a tremendous amount of research before buying this faucet for my new kitchen. I learned a great deal about faucets in general (probably more than I wanted to!) and know that I made the right choice. This faucet is built to last, versatile and sturdy. It felt solid coming out of the box and not a plastic piece in sight! It is just the right height and the hand spray feature is a hoot and so much better than the cheesy sprayer to the side featured in standard faucet set ups. The counter area is neater looking, contained, no more worrying about the sprayer tube getting caught up under the sink. If I had one critique it would be that the spigot arm (not the sprayer) is just a little too short so that when rinsing something under it water tends to splatter onto the counter at the base of the faucet, but that minor inconvenience isn't something that would deter me from highly recommending this faucet. Worth every penny.
Review: Impressive and Exceptionally Functional - This is easily the most beautiful kitchen faucet I have ever owned. It also works better than any I've used. The faucet is the first thing guests remark about when they see my recently remodeled kitchen. I was reluctant to purchase such a large faucet for my very small galley kitchen but it fits the large sink perfectly. I see complaints about the inability to pull the sprayer down into the sink and that it causes excessive splashing, however this is not a problem when used correctly. The water volume and pressure is infinite so lower pressures do not splash, yet does a fantastic job of rinsing dishes and the sink. I cannot comment about the sprayer magnetic seat removing paint on the sprayer but I cautiously guide the sprayer into it's seat. I will update this review if this seems to be a problem. I can safely say I highly recommend this product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: will this work to reach a 36 inch farmhouse sink?**
A: Yes!  We have this faucet installed with a 36 inch stainless steel sink that is 10 inches deep and it works great.  It is well made with no plastic cheap parts!

**Q: Is the only way to keep the sprayer running is to push down the leaver? Is there a way to have the sprayer going hands free?**
A: Yes.... on the back of the sprayer knozzle is the lever and you as you know pull it forward for a quick spray.   If you want it to spray non stop you push that same sprayer knozzle back (instead of forward ) and as you push it back you twist it every so slightly to the left (while pushed out), and that keeps sprayer running hands free! It’s easy !

**Q: Does the hose pull down out of the spring?**
A: The hose doesn’t pull down out of the spring; the whole thing moves down together, so the cooled up spring bends down as you pull the faucet head.

**Q: Can you install a 2.2 gpm for water pressure? did not purchase yet was affraid of the water pressure**
A: We installed this unit (so easy to install) and while we loved how it looks - hated the lousy water pressure.  After reading the Kraus reply, I disconnected the quick connect, removed the white plasic insert at the bottom, punched out the restrictor (again, so easy), reconnected an voila.  We LOVE our Kraus 1603.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does not pull out!
*by G***S on March 13, 2024*

We purchased the 1st Gen in black/stainless two-tone. I thought the sprayer would pull out, but it does not. The hose the sprayer is on stops at the spring. This means I can't get the sprayer down into the sink easily because the faucet is so tall. I love everything about this faucet except that. Installation was fairly straightforward, hand tighten the main ring under the sink and then two screws tighten it the rest of the way. This thing is built like a tank and is absolutely beautiful. I wish I could give a long-term review, but we've only had it installed about a week and will be returning since the sprayer doesn't pull out.
