Like Magic!!

I've had this faucet for about a month and a half and I love, love, love it! I was a bit confused as to how it would work when reading the other reviews so I'll try to clear up some of the confusion I had when reading the reviews. Basically there are three different ways to turn this on an off. First, there is the traditional way of using the handle. When I bought it, I figured if the sensor didn't work very well I would just switch to manual but I've not needed to do that. Second, you can use the sensor that is at the base of the fixture - this is what I''ve used 98% of the time so far. When using the sensor, you will have to have the handle/lever in the on position and at the desired water temperature and flow so whenever you turn it on using the sensor it will be at the temperature and flow to which you have set the handle the last time it was used. To turn it back off, you wave your hand in front of the sensor again. More comments on the sensor: I was afraid this was going to be like the super annoying sensors they have in most public bathrooms where you are constantly having to move your hands around to keep the flow going while washing your hands. On this faucet, that problem has been solved by having the sensor only "sense" things that are very very close it it. I was imagining frantically moving dishes around in the sink as I tried to keep the water flowing as I washed or rinsed them. Think of this sensor as being a button that you come ever so close to pushing but with out actually touching anything... so you wave your hand, super close to the sensor and the water turns on and stays on while you're doing what you need to do with the water and then you wave your hand super close to the sensor again and it turns off. When using the sensor, the water will turn off on its own if the water flows for three minutes (or somewhere around three minutes), so if you are worried about a cat jumping in front of your sensor and leaving the water to run all day, fear not!... for the great people at BioBidet have already thought about that one. The third way to turn the water on and off is to pull the sprayer nozzle out and then put it back. Like the sensor option, the water flow and temperature will be at what ever the lever was set to previously. Now, if you will allow me to rock your world... you can also mix and match the sensor at the base of the fixture with the spray nozzle! Imagine this: I'm baking and need to rinse off my measuring cup but I have egg goo on my hand so I don't want to touch anything so I wave my hand super close to the sensor and turn on the water without touching anything. Then I rinse off my hand (cuz it has egg goo on it) and continue to wash my measuring cup. Then, as I'm washing my measuring cup, I look at the sink and think "this thing could use a rinsing" so I pull down the spray nozzle and start rinsing the sink - because the water will continue to flow if you turn it on with the sensor and then pull down the spray nozzle. Then, when I'm done rinsing the sink with the spray nozzle, I feed the spray nozzle back to it's position and BAM!! just like magic, the water turns off!! I don't know about you but I think that's pretty darn impressive.

I hate this faucet.
By D. Cooley on Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2024
There are others I would hate more, but that doesn’t make this one good. 1 star because it is mostly as-described. And I don’t have any reason to think it will break anytime soon or anything. But it is hella frustrating to use. The hot/cold control is a weird twist of the handle, rather than the sort of lever-like control you would expect. The sensor position means you’re regularly turning the faucet on or off when you don’t intend to. (This may also be true in a different way for side sensors. IDK.) And because the faucet activates when you pull down the sprayer, it also means you can’t switch easily from sprayer to fixed position during a wash without turning the faucet back on again. We have also had some difficulty with the hose, which seems just a little too short for our needs. None of these things is a dealbreaker on its own, but they add up to a lot of frustration with something we are using constantly. We have been using it for almost 2 months, and it hasn’t gotten less annoying. I would definitely not buy it again and am likely going to replace it soon, because it adds that much friction to my day.
