About a year after install, faucet is very loose in basin. Should I adjust from top? Do I remove white hot/cold ceramic piece?

If the faucet body is loose tighten it from the bottom (carefully), same way you installed it.

If the whole faucet is loose you have to tighten the hold down nut under the sink.I don't think a deep well socket will work.Possibly a small crescent wrench and try to turn it clockwise until very snug.

If the whole assembly is loose on the basin- NO - Look under the sink and find a nut that tightens the bracket that holds the faucet assembly to the sink. I had a similar situation when we installed it. Had to tighten a couple times - if you are familiar with thread locker, you might want to put a dab of the blue, non hardening nonpermanent locker on the stem where the nut tightens. I might have used a dab of pipe compound or even soft permatex - forgot which now but its stayed tight for a couple yrs now. Good luck with it.

Just put a box wrench (not adjustable) on it and it should come out - Mine was installed in '97 and I first removed it a only couple years ago you may try PB Blaster penetrating oil - let it soak for a couple hours - that stuff works wondersremember to clean it (PB) all off before reassembly unless you want to taste PB for a whileHere's another tip - put a small amount of silicon grease on the threads when you put it back together (also for any other plumbing jobs) - that makes it much easier next time around.

Have replaced at least a half dozen since original purchase of faucet with no installation problems ,least so my wife says. She's the installer since I can't fit under the sink cabinet. Sorry I can't be of more help. Sometimes it's a bear to remove tho'.

We are not having either of those issues... we installed two of these in our home... one in the powder room and one in the guest bath... it has been almost 1 year and no issues at all. Maybe the flange needs to be cut down?

I've had my faucet installed since September of last year. I haven't had any issues with it at all and we are always in the kitchen. I would contact the manufacturer as it sounds like a defect in that faucet. Maybe they'd replace it for free? Good luck!

I had the same issue bought the house with the faucet. I went by looks and it worked great for me. I only think the made one variations of the sprayer. Did not take long to install. Like a new faucet. Good luck,James

I'm not sure if I completely understand your issue, but I do know that I had an unconventional faucet and this youtube video solved all my problems! All it required was a pair of pliers. In fact, I didn't actually have to buy the part she buys in the video, so pull yours out and see if you need to buy one before you go out and spend the money. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYG12CoNQW8 If this isn't what's going on with yours let me know and I'll see what I can do to help.

Mine is not loose now, but I think it was when it came in. There are various screws, find the ones that attach the parts that are loose, and tighten them. Hope that helps,

I had no problem with mine fitting. Are you in the US where faucets are standard size? I thought all would be the same. If it is metric, the threads would be different from standard, but I did not know there were metric threads in faucets. Have you asked at a local hardware/plumbing store?

I was able to tighten mine up so that it does not turn at all. Make sure any old gasket or caulking materials are cleaned from both upper and lower surfaces. Use proper tools to avoid damage to the unit. If you feel that you will break the tightening nut or damage the threads, try a little "Loctite" between the upper portion of the nut and sink. You can get a replacement nut if things go wrong!!

Keep it waxed and I dry and polish it often. I can't tell you longevity how it holds up. We don't live there anymore. All water leaves spots if you don't stay on top of it. These faucets are no worse than any others

Had similar problem. There is a plastic thermal limiter inside the faucet assembly - if you remove it you might enjoy better temp control. Another possibility is the plumber may not have set the hot and cold volume controls correctly

I wish I could help, but I no longer have the same watercooler. We have gotten a new one without faucets. Good luck!

Is stead of tightening it, I would suggest turning the water supply off to it, unscrew the spout and replace the rubber seal; I think if I remember right there is a seal there. Be sure to take the old seal to the hardware store with you, so you get the correct size.

That was a huge problem for us. We finally had to have a plumber install the faucet. We love the faucet, but it was impossible for us to figure out the install it ourselves. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I just posted a picture of the screw on the detail page for the faucet. Good luck!

Sorry to hear that. Maybe your counter is higher than typical 32" bathroom counter or wall valves lower. Plumber are notorious for put things where ever they feel like it. The only standard they seem to all do is waste line for WC at 12" off the wall.Re: the faucet. It works well and looks good.
