Many faucets I have seen have too fine a spray, causing a great deal of back-splashing. Any experience or thoughts on this?

My water pressure is relatively low (upstairs in a 100+ year old house), so the concentrated stream helps compensate. I imagine with adequate pressure, it could be overpowering. I don't have much to compare it to though.

The spray is not fine and comes out in straight line rather than an uside down cone shape. It's about 1 1/4" diameter spray and doesn't splash. You can also pull out the spray head closer to the sink and it doesn't retract into the faucet.

I haven't noticed too much of a back-splash than a normal spray would put out. Our sink is deep, so we do not have a lot of water outside the bowl.

Yes, you will need a tall faucet. The one you name should be a good fit. We haven't had a problem with splashing because the sink is quite large, but our faucet is the pour spout type. Could be different with an aerator spout if your water pressure is high.

Sorry! Can't help with your problem. Out faucet was installed by a plumber and we have not had any problems whatsoever.

It is a pretty concentrated cleaning spray which is great for cleaning. However if you leave it on spray and turn the faucet on with your hands under the spray, you'll splash yourself slightly. My mom always complains about the spray splashing her.

Hi GordonYou have to hold the trigger down for spray mode. I have tried several different amounts of water pressure and have been unsuccessful with all of them to get the on/off ease, so have ascertained that it does not exist in this faucet. That being said, placement of the trigger makes it fairly easy to hold and spray and I am quite happy with the faucet. Hope this helps.

It's not the most vigorous, but I've found it very sufficient. In spray mode it splashes more than i like, I mostly use it on non spray mode.

I am not bothered by water spots on this faucet. I don't think mine is especially bad looking. It's a work horse. I do probably clean my sink every other day.....but I am not a neat freak or cleaning fanatic. Still love this faucet. Don't use brillo on anything stainless steel - it will scratch it. However you can use a FINE steel wool on stainless steel sinks. It will make it look like brand new. Don't rub really hard in any one spot.

I have this set-up and the water spills 1 inch beyond the actual drain opening. This has not caused a problem for us because we held the faucet on the wall and spilled H2o down the channel before actually installing it This let us know exactly how far it would take to have a perfect aim. the distance was adjusted before any holes in the wall were made. Hope that helps!

I have never had a problem with the faucet dripping so far. I have had mine almost two years. Mine was installed by my plumber.

As everyone else is saying check for sediment/Calcium deposit build-up, or valve problem. As far as the faucet.....it is a great faucet.

I have the same faucet and no issues whatsoever. Could it be a part is missing on not properly installed? Good luck!

With high pressure and full open valves it will spray all over. The wide spray is very fine and therefore it splashes.

Does not take into consideration the back splash. Add about the height of the backsplash. I love my vanity by the way! :-)

Hi. I actually bought it for my rental property. I haven't gotten complaints about the faucet. Sorry that I couldn't provide more information.

I haven't noticed that much splashing except when the spray function is on & you have it on full blast. If it does splash just turn down the force of the stream& it seems to be fine. So far it is loved by all.
