Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers consistently praise the KB964 for its traditional luxury aesthetic, solid brass build quality, and accessibility features. Experts highlight its suitability for spacious vanities and period-style bathrooms, noting that the included drain assembly adds value despite occasional recommendations for silicone sealant to ensure a perfect seal.
What Users Say
Everyday users frequently praise the faucet's high-end appearance and smooth operation, with many reporting no leaks after years of use. Common complaints focus on the heavy weight complicating installation and low spout clearance causing splashing, while some note that brass accents require occasional polishing to prevent tarnishing.
Common Complaints
Heavy weight complicates DIY installation and strains sink decks during mounting. Pop-up drain linkage becomes loose over time requiring periodic tightening adjustments. Low spout clearance causes water splashing for users with larger hands or awkward positioning
