Missed opportunity.
Hell yeah
That’s a beautiful faucet.
Do you not get water down the back of there?
I have the same faucet. If you leave it on very very very slow, it will drip backwards onto the counter.
I learned this after hearing a funny sound from the bathroom and discovered it had been dripping for hours and had been dripping down the vanity into the drawer which had filled with about half an inch of water.
Now there’s a glob of silicone under the bottom of the stem so it will drip into the sink instead of onto the counter.
Stupid fucking faucet.
No. But it’s does need a new bead of caulking next time I’m a caulking.
What went wrong with the previous one?
Was leaking inside and replacement cart was more than I wanted to spend.
Caulk got botched.
Congrats! These things can be annoying for months
I also like caulk.
Not long ago faucet manufacturers made solid brass assemblies. Those leaked from the gaskets which you replaced every year maybe.
Next they reduced the amount of brass by soldering several brass blocks using copper tubing. Usually these leaked at the solder joint or at the new alumina ceramic sealing valves.
Today most faucets are garbage. Mostly plastic, screws, sheet metal and some Cooper, brass and stainless but all in the most cheapest way it could have been imagined. Next to this, we got a big catch bucket as better technology. My kitchen faucet is Chinese and has lasted at most 2 years. No its not American made in China, I mean I got it from alibaba from China. In general its great and the build quality is better than US made in China. And its cheap. My plan is to continue replacing it every year with the same Chinese model. It looks good and lasts long enough for me to not complain.
Next up is cleaning out the old caulk, and putting in some new.
Also, no backsplash, and no mirror?
There is a mirror but no back splash. It’s actually a small half bathroom so does not see heavy use.
