How far is the travel on water knob? Aka, how far front to back does the lever go when adjusting full hot and full cold?

If you push the handle all the way back to the hot position or pull it all the way forward for cold. I would say the distance is less than an inch in either direction from measuring at that ring that you can see at the base of the faucet where it attaches to the counter mount. I have a granite surround which measures 5 inches from wall to sink edge, and my faucet is mounted in the center of it with approximately two and half inches behind and two and half inches in front from centerpoint and the handle does not get anywhere near the wall. I put a wooden spoon handle behind my faucet just now and it appeared to not go deeper than the actual water spout portion of the faucet, certainly not more than half an inch behind the actual faucet stem that transports the water.

The water knob goes 1 inch each way to full hot and cold. The knob pulls straight out for full strength of water 2 1/2 inches. I hope this answers your question?

As you can see by the products picture it is a pretty small lever, which is more for pointing to the direction of water flow, as you can turn the valve with the round knurled knob that the lever is on. I believe the lever is made of medal. The lever on the one I received actually points in the wrong direction of water flow, but for the price I can deal with it as the overall function of the valve is good, however this maybe a physical discrepancy that others would consider as a reason to not purchase it.

I'm not sure about a temp "range", however, I have the knob in the middle of the temp selector and it's really cold.

Not much. I measured it with a digital thermometer. Lowest setting was 175F, 1/4 way was 182, and the the middle setting actually boiled the water. So from middle on up is useless. It's hard to find a budget kettle with good temperature control. If anybody has better results, I'd like to know and I'll send mine back for a replacement.

sorry, but I am not atnmy home where this faucet is located so I cannot measure it. I LOVE the faucet and would guess it could be very close since the handle straight up is as far as it goes back toward what would be the backsplash. Pulling forward changes the temp. To open it is a matter of pushing the handle away from the base support.

I am happy with the cold water model, yes. But you're right: it can be jarring--but only at first, and/or if you inadvertently pull the lever all the way in one shot. It's a new thing at first and there's no question that you'll likely be a little out of your comfort zone when you first give it a try. But then it's like anything else: you become accustomed to it and your body knows what to expect, and it begins to feel quite normal. This advice applies to both the mechanism and the temperature, really. In short, it's fine, but there's a short period of adjustment. If you're really worried you can put on a seatbelt for the first try, just in case. :-) I am happy with the cold water model, yes.

To be fully off the handle sits at approximately 115 degrees. My back splash is 3" from the center of the unit and the top of the handle is 1 1/4" away. I don't find this too tight and don't hit my fingers. Love the faucet!

About 3 inches. I jpined both hot and cold to a T-piece then that to an adjust valve to controll the pressure. If you turn it down too low it will turn on then decrease in pressure. I found a good pressure works great and my 4 yo daughter loves it and i know she now uses less water w/o supervision. Be sure to be specific that you want an US power cord, they sent me a Euro cord. Then after contacting them they sent a plug adapter. Whatever it works. Takes batteries too

Their are ON/OFF markings which are about 4 inches apart. i had this installed and have not experienced any problems. i move the handle up to the ON position for full flow. i don't try to stop short of the ON position.

Yes but not with the lever... , You can adjust the pressure by letting less water through the on off valve located on the water inlet connections where you connect to the toilet and tank. it is within easy reach while sitting on the seat...I use full pressure always and it is fine but adjusted it after your question, to see if I could. So yes. and I love this model. I have had others that had no on and off lever. only thing is it doesn't hang well on the hanger...

There is a safety catch on the hot water lever. You have push it in while pushing down at the same time. There's also a hot wter switch in the back. However, we only hooked our cooler to cold water as we didn't need the hot water at home.

there is no water flow adjustment, it basically streams water until hot water is detected and almost cuts the water flow completely down to hardly anything, until you pull the lever and then you get full pressure for the remainder of your shower

No problem. Lever is almost straight up in the hot position. Don't use it much either.

There's a model with two control knob hot and cold, like in a faucet, control it there. This model suffice, it's great and you won't feel much of the cold water believed me. The model with hot water connection requires hole through your sink cabinet if that's what you have. Most haven't give much thought how it works but just about hot water. How long does hot water comes out from your faucet or shower head unless you just came out of the shower or washing your hand before you have the urges of doing something else? By the time the water is warm/hot, you wasted the cold reach the hot water. Still there the initial shock, cold water in the water line.

I can't see any reason that the handle ass'y couldn't be reversed so that it is located on the left. The cold/hot would be reversed tho. Normal setup has "cold flow" when you move the handle forward towards you. You might be able to reverse the lines ie. hot to cold and vs. verse To keep the flow where cold is towards the front. Yes the handle does adjust the flow rate. The further away from the spout the higher the rate.

yes if you turn the nose towards you it cold away is hot and leave the lever in the middle and its warm...great faucet

as far as the way the lever moves, that part can't be changed, you should be able to install fct. where the handle is on the left side. it will work the same way as it was on the right side. keep in mind though, your hot & cold will work in reverse, unless you change the rotation of the supply tubes.
