Kitchen Faucet Upgrade

We have seen this question several times in the past about replacing the factory Kitchen faucet. Well DW wanted one with a built in spray head and swivel for our 2005 Copper Canyon. The existing one was a tall arm, but no sprayer. Install would have been less than an hour except for a connection gender and size issue. Old had a connection hose that went from male 1/2" to 5/16 female at the faucet. The new faucet had the connection hoses built on with 3/8" female connections. Solution was trip to HD for two 1/2" pipe to 3/8" compression fittings. We got the faucet at the local Lowe's for about $140. Stuff in sink is travel mode, 5er at storage yard, water flow is from pump.

    Nice upgrade, looks like it came from the factory. Good going, you get an Atta-Boy!

    Nice job, it looks good.
    Maybe we will need one in our RV. :)

    I have a similar one in our S&B,

    The one I want is $251 at Lowes.....we found the equivalent at NW RV sales in Portland, OR for $150. Haven't ordered it yet....will when we get back from 1 1/2 month fishing trip. :) :) Oh...the one above is too tall for our cabinets. :(

    Nice job.. Looks a lot like the one we did last year. We also did the bath faucet - one with a longer reach.
