I’m not sure if this is true, but a plumber once told me that a lot of the supposedly reputable brands make lesser quality products for big box stores like the Home Depot. The plumber’s advice was to source faucets from actual plumbing specific stores. Alternatively, you can ask your plumber to source the faucet for you. This is typically what I do, they’re pretty good for matching a style and can usually give you a couple options. More on reddit.com

Master Plumber here: You have only two options: Moen or Delta? Both brands offer lifetime warranties. Both companies will send homeowners replacement parts for free (keep the install manual for model numbers, it will also have an exploded parts view with part numbers). Both companies have excellent customer service. Both brands want you to remain loyal to their brand… I’ve had customer service reps send free new faucets if a problem couldn’t be fixed on new installs. Both brands are easy to get parts for at any home improvement store (if you like need the part ASAP and can’t wait for the company to send it to you). Delta’s are easy to work on. Moen is built a little bit more solid (not by much) and they can be channeling to remove the cartridges out of (but Moen makes a tool for that). Those are the two brands that I can honestly stake my reputation on. If you want to go high dollar, Brizo is Delta’s premium line. $$$ More on reddit.com

All the brands are crap and designed to have you buy the whole damn thing once a plastic part dies. You can't buy the thing the sprayer hose sits in, although they are so poorly built they will crap out 3 times before the faucet does, instead you are supposed to buy the whole hose assembly for $100, At least until they stop selling that too because it's 1 year out of style. But hey, the CEO got another x million in stock options this year for squeezing more profit out of fucked over consumers.

Sorry, I guess I'm feeling a little cranky before my coffee.
