just finished replacing my kitchen sink yesterday... had to make a new
drain pipe for it, and also do some minor repair to the countertop (had
a hidden chip) anyway I got everything hooked up, turned on the water,
and... what a mess! my new faucet was leaking water everywhere. It
was a new Moen single handle deal with the spray nozzle, and it appeared
to be leaking down the hose to the spray nozzle. This faucet uses an
unusual method of connecting the hose to the faucet, instead of the
usual threaded connection it pushes into a plastic clip and seals with
O-rings. I suspect the plastic clip. Anyway, I'll be returning it and
getting another faucet. Do Delta faucets use a more conventional method
of connecting the sprayer nozzle hose? I put the old Delta faucet back
in and it is working fine, it's just that the girlie wants a new faucet
with a sprayer nozzle and this one doesn't have one.

There's nothing fundamentally flawed about the plastic
quick-release fittings on the spray line. I have a Grohe
faucet that's lasted 10 years (including a deinstall/
reinstall when we replaced the countertop). Never leaked!

I fully expect it to last another 10 years or more.

If your supplier can't help you sort this out, call
Moen because they will. Moen faucets *are* good quality
and Moen will stand behind them.
