Moen Spot Resistant Stainless Sip Modern Cold Water Kitchen Beverage Faucet with Optional Filtration System, S5530SRS

Another perfect transaction-arrived quickly and in absolutely pristine condition-well done Amazon.The faucet has heft and feels as though it was machined from a single piece of steel-the finish is magnificent and flawless in every way shape and form. The brass stem is impressive in and of itself-a mirror finish, devoid of any machining marks or cosmetic imperfections, museum quality really... The action of the stem and lever/cartridge is, as is said-silky smooth.The sole area of improvement possible is in the escutcheon as it is plastic, a magnificent looking piece of plastic with the same perfect finish but plastic none the less-I would have liked metal.In the specs I found prior to ordering the product was listed as needing a 1 1/4" hole and the one I received has a brass stem of roughly 9/16" so the needed penetration would have to be that rather than a much larger one-the provided escutcheon does completely cover the existing 1 1/4" hole in our stainless steel sink. Also , the escutcheon does have an electronic device with led that must provide info on when to change the filters if used with Moen's filtering system - the install instructions state to mount the led to the rear if not needed.Lastly, the model we received, S5530, was available at nearly 40% less than what two wholesale houses we do business with wanted for the exact same model.I did neglect to add that this faucet is designed to be attached using a 3/8" compression connection-should your system use 1/4" tube the solution is easy and financially painless. John Guest makes a 1/4" tube to 3/8" compression adapter- p/n PP6008U9W- we needed two one for the faucet stem and one for the angle stop. The 'gasketed' adapter attaches directly to the compression threads and provides-sans tape/dope- an absolutely water tight connection using nsf (International) rated John Guest LLDPE tubing rather than the conventional flex pigs that carry the usual advisories .Lastly I can also attest to the remarkable water flow of this faucet compared to both the stock faucet and the replacement , the increase is at least 30% and likely closer to 50% greater.

When I splurged on the Moen Spot Resistant Stainless Sip Modern Cold Water Kitchen Beverage Faucet, I half expected it to pour gold for what it cost. But, you know what? It's built like a tank and runs smoother than my new car.The flow rate is fantastic—like a mini Niagara Falls right in my kitchen. It fits aesthetically with my main faucet of a different brand like they were separated at birth, which is a major win for my inner interior designer. Hooking it up to my RO system, though, was a bit like a treasure hunt—without the map. I had to turn into a detective to find the right adapters, diving deep into the internet's abyss to unearth the manual and figure out the exact size of the faucet end.Thankfully, once I had all the pieces of the puzzle, my handyman snapped it all together without breaking a sweat. Now, it's all systems go for hydration with zero fuss. This faucet might have cost me a pretty penny, but it's proven itself as a swanky, reliable addition to my kitchen command center. If your wallet can handle the initial shock, your taste buds and décor sensibilities will thank you!

Bought this to replace a cheap beverage faucet when the ceramic discs wore out and started to leak. Easy to install. Great quality as expected from Moen. Finish has a flat appearance to it with some surface texture to it that provides the fingerprint resistance. Neck swivels and the valve is smooth to operate. Perfect height for a beverage faucet setup next to the kitchen faucet in a 30" country style sink. Use a Sharkbite 3/8" npt fitting with push connect of the 3/8" water line to the filter unit.

The item ordered was a Moen faucet that was approximately $307. The item received was a $25 off brand. The item was placed in a Moen box and not in the original packaging. There is apparently an attempt to sell a cheaper item for the price of the name brand.

Love the modern look that matches my kitchen faucet. Welll made and easy to install. It’s much better than the cheap one I bought from the big box stall.

Excellent looks, designed with a replacement sensor that connects to its paired filter but no support for connecting it to a real Reversible Osmosis undersink filter! I rigged it with a connector hose from Home Depot without the sensor connection. I wish they offer the sensor power source and timer as a separate component and a connector for RO filter units and also match the design with their infrared sensor based motion based main kitchen faucets.

This is a beautiful faucet, very high quality chrome finish. The spigot swings easily, and the control lever feels very solid.Note that it needs to be installed through a 1-1/4 inch hole if you’re using the optional wire that connects to a Moen undersink filter. If you don’t need that wire, it can be disconnected from the base plate and the faucet will easily fit through a standard 1 inch opening. The base plate is cheap chromed plastic, not metal, which is the only shortcoming and is surprising for a faucet at this price.I didn’t use the baseplate, since the faucet covered my 1-inch countertop hole without it. I added a neoprene washer cut to fit the bottom of the faucet, which sealed the bottom and provided some cushioning.The faucet uses a standard 3/8 inch compression fitting, and also accepts a 1/4 inch compression connection by using an inexpensive adapter available at any home center or plumbing supply. My brass adapter cost $3 at that orange apron home center.Best feature was the price, an Amazon Warehouse used item, fifty bucks, a fraction of the regular Amazon price. The faucet was perfect in every way, not a nick or scratch anywhere, and appeared to be brand new.
