DELTA FAUCET 980T-SSSD-DST Review by idunno "idunno" (Louisville, KY)
This faucet is a GREAT idea! I cook a lot and wash my hands repeatedly when doing so. It's so nice to just touch and go to wash. All around the faucet is well made and installed easily... but here comes "the but"... This feature doubles the cost of the faucet. When using as described, it's great, but for other normal day to day use, it's a pain and I get a lot of the false on-off syndrome others have described. Because of this I think the solenoid will have a short life, and I hope they come up with a repair part so I do not have to trash it, when I spend this kind of money I expect it to last forever. Last week I had a pan in the sink that must have got pushed in contact with the faucet and killed the batteries, faucet will NOT work when batteries low. I wish they would have put a manual override such that the faucet worked normal except when you wanted that feature and/or if the automatic solenoid failed. I would highly recommend waiting for this technology to be refined in future versions.
DELTA FAUCET 980T-SSSD-DST Review by J. Banks
I have had the facuet in for a couple of weeks now (4/3), renovated the kitchen. I did the installation myself and found that to be very simple. As soon as the facuet was installed it worked fine. I have checked under the sink for leaks and the only leak has been from me not connecting the disposal correctly, I fixed that. Nothing attibuted to the facuet. It is very sensitive, I find it comes on when cleaning the counter and accidently touching the facuet or control handle. I agree with the previous reviewer, it unit is BIG, yes BIG but it is a nice focal point in the kitchen. I love the facuet and if needed I will update this review.
It is 10/9 and the facuet is over 6 months old. I have seen review were folks are constantly changing the batteries. I have changed the batteries once since owning this facuet, and as of today, I still love it and have had no problems.
I highly recommend it.
DELTA FAUCET 980T-SSSD-DST Review by KillarBlaze007
Just had the faucet installed today (Sept 15) I connected the wires and batteries in five minutes. Turned it on and water came out. Touched the top of the faucet and the water flow stopped. Touched the faucet again and the water started flowing again. It's big, I mean very big. It's much bigger than I thought it would be. Man, this faucet is BIG. I like new toys, and this is a toy that I will play with all night. Other reviewer had problems, so I'll be watching closely.
So far so good, it even matches the granite counter top we got. (New kitchen)
Oh yah, shipping was next day as well, paid a little more but I got this sucker when I needed it.
Update: Two days later:
Water leak under the sink, coming from the solenoid. Not good, might be a bad solenoid or poor install. No touch 2 go feature, no water. Can't risk water damage to my new cabinets. I still like the faucet, plumber is coming back tomorrow. If he can't fix the leak, I'll buy another one and have another plumber install the solenoid, if I can't do it myself.
I will reserve final judgment for now. word of advice: Keep checking under the sink for leaks.
Update 2:
Traced the water leak to a pipe joint, The touch feature worked for another day then stopped completely. Sent an email to Delta and they will be sending out a replacement solenoid. And I don't have to send anything back to them.
Update: Sept 20th
It's broken. Touch 2 Go is gone. Now it's a matter of if Delta will replace it.
Update: Nov 21, 2009
After posting my first review someone had an issue with it being posted too early after installation and thought that the feature is not needed. I can report that the touch 2 go feature is still working. I think it's a great feature. Instant on and off, at full flow, I discovered that when I want '4 cups' of water in my coffee pot, the touch 2 go shuts offs the water flow at the right time with a simple tap.
It's the little things that makes life better.
Update: December 4th 2009
Still working, just like in the video. It may not be the norm, but what do I care? Tap on, tap off. Ha Ha, the little blue led still works too. (just a small joke)
Feb 1, 2010.
Still working, by working I mean, I can tap the faucet or tap and the water flow either stops or starts. Just like the video clip.
