Uncertain of the weight (the battery in my food scale decided to quit!), but the pull-out spray is rather heavy, and probably not ideal for arthritic hands. It's unfortunate, as it is a very nice faucet. On the plus side, the spray spout does easily go back in.

While the head of the faucet is heavier than others we have had and I do have some issues which affect my hand and wrist joints, I don't find it too heavy. Unless it were taken apart I don't know how you would get an accurate weight for the head. Have you considered calling customer service?

You may have a hard time as it is quit heavy. The faucet however is worth the dollars and we love it !

The head of the faucet itself doesn't feel that heavy, maybe 2-3 pounds. It does feel good in your hand, substantial; you can tell its metal not plastic and that's what I liked about it. The combination of the head and the hose when you pull it out does feel heavy, and maybe someone with arthritis may find it difficult. There is metal cladding around the hose itself and that adds to the weight.

it's very pretty and a great quality faucet...the plumber who put it in for me even commented on the quality and said he was going to recommend it to his other clients. But yes, it's a bit heavy, and a bit awkward to pull out too. I haven't had a pull out for years, so I may just not be used to it anymore...but I'm starting to wonder if a pull down would have suited us better. I also wish it had a way to pause the water flow with a button so the pull out could truly be used with one hand to, for example, fill a vase that's on the counter while you're holding the flowers in your other hand.

IT is a bit heavy. Not sure of the weight bc I am not home, but it may be something to think about before ordering it. The weight is what attracted me to this bc others were so flimsy. I would bet it is not quite a half a pound.

Okay I did write to Delta and sent the following reply: "Thank you for contacting us. We appreciate your interest in Delta Faucet Company products. I would be happy to help you.The metal body parts of the faucet are cast brass.Please contact us back if you have any questions or need further assistance. Best Regards, KeriConsumer Response Representative"I guess that we will be ordering more this summer during the Dallas remodel. Thanks BMF again for making us aware of the potential problem : ) gm

Haven't weighed them, but I would hope Cuisinart would have that on a product page somewhere. They are on the heavy side, but not so much that you notice. The bigger issue is the design of the handle when coupled with the weight. The handles are not as 'full' as they should be making them somewhat unwieldy when hand washing them. I am a big guy with big hands so maybe this would be different for someone with smaller hands. Overall, I'd say the weight is just right to feel substantial and not flimsy.

Although this unit is not very light in weight it was easily maneuvered into the master bathroom even though I had to maneuver around several 90degree turns, very niece piece and worth the effort, the faucet is of excellent quality-good luck

The head looks and weighs like metal... so I think it is. This is a very good faucet. I have this in my home and have also installed it in 4 of my clients homes. It looks and WORKS great!

No, there is a weight below the sink. This faucet did not last 6 months before the hose inside ruptured and it was unfixable. I cannot recommend it.

I had my handy-man install same about this time last year -- maybe closer to holidays really -- so far SO good!!! I originally tried to buy a sink in lowe's and they not only diss-ed me for the sink, but also couldn't product the faucet I had picked out of THEIR catalogue, so bought both on-line on amazon... delivered to door!!! I think you'll be very content -- it is very heavy -- maybe 25+ lbs, so you may need help if you think about installing it yourself!?!?! oh and cleans beautifully!!! :) angela

The faucet head is plastic which at first I thought felt cheap, but turned out to be pretty smart when steaming hot water was coming out of it. If it was metal you would not be able to hold it!

If the bamboo faucet is antique brass and NOT antique bronze, it will look great! This overflow is more brassy than "bronzey". Hope that helps!

That doesn't seem right. But I can't be sure without weighing it. I will say I put it together with no difficulty, and pick it up and move it easily. It doesn't seem heavy. I am seventy with a bad arm, so I think it if I can pick it up and move it, most people can. It is sturdy though.

I don't think it will be a problem for you, but it depends on your sense of space. We definitely felt like the faucet was enormous when we first installed, especially compared to what we replaced. It took next to no time to fall in love with the look, performance and functionality of it. We do have to 'train' people on how to use it, since there is the main on/off and also an on/off for the pot filler arm. We love it, and our sink is only 20"x22" and it isn't overwhelming there at all

That means that the person has another faucet as their primary one (most used--probably kitchen sink) and this one is in another location and used less (maybe a wet bar or a prep sink area). I, on the other hand, have this faucet as my only faucet in my kitchen. The larger one would not fit under my cabinets. This one works great and I still love it.

I really don't know. You should be able to compare it with other faucets maybe at a store like Lowes

I would probably recommend the vibrant stainless for esthetics. We did have a problem with the brushed finish on faucets from a different manufacturer. It didn't hold up well so this time we bought the chrome. Incidentally, I did something stupid and broke a part of the Kohler fauctet last week. I contacted the Customer Relations of Kohler, and they are sending me a complete new faucet under warrantee after over two years. It speaks well for the company.

I really don't know, but it looks really nice and we like it a lot. I had the same issue with the wrong finish on the faucet, and they also replaced ours without a problem.

Unfortunately the box doesn't have a weight on it and the paper has no info. I can only tell you that I am 68 yrs old with diabetes and not strong any more. The iron is of average weight. I love this iron so much I ordered another one. It has lots of holes for steam, easy to pour water directly from a gallon jug into the iron. I use distilled, even though manufacture says you don't have too. All public water systems have additives. If you boil tap water and the pot has a sediment this same sediment will be in your iron. This model does not leak, at least mine doesn't.

I have had mine for about a year, love it, the color looks like the ones in Lowes display, the only thing I did was to move the handle to the front over sink as when my hands are wet I didn't want them to drip on the back of the sink. I have had no trouble with the faucet and it looks good with my bronze colored composite deep sink.
