Pfister Jaida Bathroom Sink Faucet, 8-Inch Widespread, 2-Handle, 3-Hole, Spot Defense Brushed Nickel Finish, LF049JDGS

I really liked the ease of installation. The engineering of this set is different from other faucets I’ve installed. I liked having the quick connects, plus the included tool is very handy. I honestly wouldn’t have needed to use any other tools. I did wrench on my supply line, but hand tightened would have sufficed. The rubber gasket in it would probably hold from a strong hand tightening. The quality of the build seems fine initially. I can’t say much for how it will hold up long term from just a few days of use, but it doesn’t feel cheap. As for how it looks, well, I really think it’s attractive. It isn’t wild, but that open spout does stand out. The one thing I would caution about is the flow isn’t strong. If you’re hoping for Niagara Falls, you’ll be disappointed. I don’t mind it, but my wife would like better flow. The nice thing about the lack of force coming out of it is it doesn’t splash all over when washing your hands. I’m giving it five stars even though I’d like the ability to increase the flow a bit. No one seems to make an adjustable restrictor on faucets. It would be a welcome addition.

Nice crome finish. Very high quality. Installs quickly with some quick connect connections.

This was a snap to install, although I did use teflon tape on the threads that wasn't mentioned in the install instructions. The only thing I would do differently is mold some fins on the install tool to assist with tightening. The extra holes on the sides of the install tool made it a little difficult to get a good grip on to make sure it was tight. I would also add a visual marker to indicate what direction the valves should be in when tightened to the TOP of the assembly rather than the bottom, as it is often difficult to keep track of what direction the stems should be pointing once the stems are installed and not yet tightened. I overcame this by marking the top with a pencil, in line with the arrow on the bottom that is supposed to be used to make sure it's aligned properly.

First, I would like to point out the directions for installing this faucet were great. And it was great they had all the adapters and special tools needed for the Pfister fitting under the sink. It took me about 1.5 hours to uninstall and install the new faucet in my bathroom. Nothing too complex about the install. It was pretty straight forward. My issue comes with the operation of the faucet. The faucet needs more of an angle to the main waterfall piece. Since it does leave water spots on the faucet. In addition, a higher degree angle would insure the water falls in the same location in the sink. I have noticed the water will start out in the middle of the drain plug. And slowly moves towards close to the back of the sink under not hitting the top of drain plug. So about a total of 2 inch variance in where the water stream lands in sink. Overall, not a bad unit. Does not leak and looks pretty sharp on the top of the vanity in the bathroom. Just a few design flaws in the until and the function of the faucet. That is one reason I took off 1 star and gave the unit 4 stars.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: style looks amazing

Bought this for my new bathroom. I had a challenge to find a new faucet that would compliment the vintage farmhouse style I love and be low enough in height to allow the large mirror/medicine cabinet to open above it. This fits the bill and is stylish and timeless looking. It got big compliments from a friend who has a gorgeous home and is extremely picky about that sort of thing. Also, no issues with installing it. I love it! One thing to consider is hard water stains. If you have hard water, and have this type of open top faucet, you can see the inside of the faucet and it's one more thing to keep clean.

A great faucet set with a unique design. DIY Installation straightforward and all the parts were well made. The spigot is heavy and highly polished. I appreciate the quality.

We bought this three piece version versus the single piece because when the granite countertops were installed our old sink had 3 holes and we had them drill 3 holes in the granite, so we were lucky to find this three hole version because we fell in love with the look of this faucet. The water flow is regulated, meaning if you turn the hot or cold water on at 100% and for the sake of discussion, the flow is 3 gallons per minute, if you then turn the other nozzle on 100%, the flow stays at the same 3 gallons per minute. The 3 GPM is a fictitious figure for example, but the flow remains constant. I personally like this. The only change I would make is to angle the nozzle down about 5 degrees so water would flow down versus a few drops sitting until they evaporate, but that is the only gripe I could possibly come up with on this facet. There is a slim chance the bathroom counter top was not perfectly level, but the guy installing the granite counter tops treated this like it was his personal art form and he was meticulous with the installation and I saw him use a level many times on the kitchen counter tops, so I am assuming he did the same with the bathroom counter tops where this faucet is installed. I would buy this again.
