Hansgrohe Joleena Stainless Steel Kitchen Faucet with Pull Down Sprayer for Commercial Sinks - 19.3" Tall

I've purchased several Hansgrohe kitchen and bath fixtures over the years. They've always been more expensive than similar Kohler and other more common brand products. However, all of my Hansgrohe fixtures have worked flawlessly for many years. They are less prone to clogging up due to hard water and they are always better made.With this particular kitchen faucet, I got the 19" tall chrome finish one that looks like the commercial kitchen faucets. The quality of the product is top notch. It is all metal construction with no chrome plastic bits as is common on many other faucets. It has a very nice, old school metal heft to it. The operation of the unit is very smooth. The on-off lever is easy to very precisely set the flow and the flexible faucet head is very easy to use and I can easily spray all 4 corners of my large sink without issue.Unlike other kitchen faucets, this one did not come w/ the soap dispenser. You have to buy it separately for another $32. Well, this was the nicest soap dispenser I've ever had. Again, the pump part is all metal construction. It is heavy and you feel the quality of the mechanism. Is it overkill for a soap dispenser? Of course. Does it make me feel like this is the last dispenser I'll ever have to buy? Yes.With respect to complaints of water flow, I had no issues whatsoever. The water flow is just perfect. I didn't have to remove or drill out any restrictors. I get a strong enough flow of water at the max setting to clean whatever I need. Frankly, any stronger would be ridiculous as it would cause water to shoot out of my sink. But, YMMV depending on how much water pressure your house provides.While the faucet and dispenser combo cost about $80 more than other brand's products, in my eyes, it is well worth the extra cost for kitchen fixtures that I will be using dozens of times every single day for years and years.Any downsides of the product are not specific to Hansgrohe but just inherent to the design of this type of faucet. I do wish the arm that holds the faucet head could be extended out more to better position it in my relatively large sink for easier reach. Some may also think the price is high and the value proposition is not good. However, I disagree. It is more expensive... but more like 25% to 33% more expensive, which is not much compared to the much better overall quality you get.One last thing about kitchen faucets... I'm replacing one that's touch activated. If you're thinking about getting a touch activated faucet, I'd highly discourage you from doing so. It just adds an extra step to turning on and off the faucet and you have to change the batteries at least 2-3x/year and you will inadvertently brush against the fixture turning it on and off. It is a ridiculous solution looking for a problem IMO. Go with straight old-school, non-powered on-off lever faucets.
