Moen Gibson One-Handle Single Hole Modern Bathroom Sink Faucet with Optional Deckplate, Chrome, 6145

This was one of the few faucets that met my needs with style and smaller sink. I was looking for a longer spout depth to reach over properly with the sink I was installing onto (Ikea sink), tall since the sink was shallow, single handle, standard stream and matte black. I first got the Moen Genta which came in about $100 (almost half the price of this), but it had a laminar stream which actually caused a lot of splash in the flat bottom sink I have. Even though the Genta didn't work well for my needs, I did l did like the built-in hose set up and lengths on Moen's, so I went with this Gibson. Pros: - Long spout to extend over sink - Single handle that requires minimum space for operation - Tall faucet, which works nice for shallow sinks - Long built-in hoses - no concern with reach - Fits single hole or 3- hole w plate - Stylish with matte black finish - Comes with pop-up drain assembly - Good stream flow and pressure Cons - Price: this was almost twice as much as similar models and some of the competitors - The pop-up drain assembly socket washer was difficult to distinguish proper direction and had a small leak (I possibly installed it backwards at one point and may have damaged it). I got another washer at a local hardware store to put in the screw cap on the outer face of the socket ball and it has worked fine since.

I purchased these 2 bathroom faucets to replace a set of Ikea ones in which one had sprung a leak. I looked all over (Home Depot/Lowes) and could not find a QUALITY replacement that was budget friendly. I was not interested in Glacier Bay or other products with plastic parts because I didn't want the same problem. These are really solid, look great and took about 1.5 hours to install with a professional. I do want to let buyers know that the drain assembly portion that connects the stopper is on a flexible piece of metal which probably allows it to conform to different bowls but does make closing the drain different than a straight piece of metal pull (there is more play) Either way, looks great and not a huge deal as I don't fill the bowls regularly anyhow. Worth the price.

This is a nicely made faucet with quality parts and refined, minimalistic design. Much better than big box store offerings. Some have claimed in reviews that this faucet is gargantuan, and there are even reports of it being 11" tall: this is not true. The faucet is 8" tall from the bottom of the escutcheon to the top of the handle, modest in size and well proportioned. If you take your time and read the instructions and have a little experience, this is an easy faucet to install and a fine quality fixture at a reasonable price. I'm quite pleased with the product, from packaging to final functionality.

Works good and easy to install

Love the look and function of the faucet but the stopper doesn't seal tight

I have 3 bathrooms and this Moen faucet is in each bathroom. If you like a single handle faucet this is an excellent product. Highly recommend Moen!

I searched for just the right faucets for our bathroom remodel. I wanted sleek/simplistic and modern, but not “weird-modern”. We went with all chrome fixtures in the bathroom, and I was nervous about fingerprints and that they would always look dirty. But I haven’t experienced anything at all like that in the two weeks we’ve used them. They work incredibly well, the design is smart and gets the water exactly where you’d want it and nowhere else! I can’t speak to the matching drains that came with, because our new vanity also came with pop up drains, so we went with those for now. Overall, these were an incredible buy and I’d highly recommend!

It is a perfect product and Amazon delivered it quickly and my contractor had not any delays in completing the work.

I had previously bought a Moen Genta (brushed nickel spotresist) at Home Depot because it had a high review score. Huge mistake! The Genta doesn't aerate the water at all, so the the laminar flow causes water to splash EVERYWHERE. The Genta splashes droplets of water all over your shirt and countertop just from hitting the bottom of the sink, and then large amounts of water spray everywhere whenever you wash your hands, and reducing the water flow at the cutoff valves won't help much. Also, all the Genta's flat surfaces collect water, and the "spot-resist" coating didn't resist waterspots. I replaced it with the Moen Gibson (matte black). I didn't use the included drain or stopper, I'm not equipped to replace the Genta's drain, so I just replaced the faucet. And wow, what an improvement! The water flow is properly aerated and there's no splashing at all, either from the bottom of the sink, or the water hitting your hands, it's a massive night-and-day improvement. I have no idea how the Genta has such a high rating, it's a terrible faucet. The Gibson barely gets any water on it in the first place (much narrower profile), the shape of it does not allow much water to collect, and what water remains doesn't seem to leave spots on the black finish when it dries. Downsides of the Gibson are that the handle is slightly stiffer than I'd like, and the lift-rod is not removable without completely unscrewing the faucet from the vanity. If you don't plan to use the lift rod, you may still want to install it just so that you can attach to it later without needing to remove the faucet. If you're considering between this and the Genta, avoid the Genta at all costs and go for this one instead.

great quality, no plastic here. looks and works great

It looks fantastic and there’s more room beneath the tap when brushing, washing etc. Would be easier to fill a container with the extra height. My handyman had it installed within an hour. It does however need wiping after use or there are water spots on it. No dripping when shut off and smooth opening/closing of tap.

Very good quality and nice looking

Wanted good quality so we bought Moen. I was wondering if the black would show water marks but it does not! I love that! It looks gorgeous in our bathroom!
