Good idea for the poll.. Please keep us posted on results. ]
To complicate things, I might have different choices if it were differentiated on Kitchen/Lav/Tub-shower.
Actually the answer would change depending on whether you are referring to single handle or multiple handle faucets, or which fixture the faucet is for. Single handle I prefer Delta, two handle Price Pfister, two handle pressure balance tub/shower Price Pfister, and single handle tub, tub/shower Delta 1700 series.
I've installed/used two American Standard Hampton two-handle faucets and both have worked great for years.
I installed a Delta kitchen faucet that had a problem which was a negative but the warranty/customer service was so fantastic and the replacement has fixed the problem so I really like Delta.
I installed a PricePfister Parisa single handle faucet that really nice, the feel and action of the handle and the finish are quite impressive, so PricePfister gets my vote.
Got ot go with Moen (and Delta a close second). In Northern Va. we use A LOT of Moen ( Delta 2nd) . 'Course I 've been getting a little dissapointed by the "More Plastic" parts everyone is using latley.
It is tough to make a choice in the land of plastic. I replaced a Delta 400 once that was 25 years old!! Of course it was twice if not three times the weight of the new one...Yes they went with another 400...how boring, but how dependable!!
I just finished a large 150+ home developement and the number one choice was Delta then American Standard and then Grohe. I find Delta to be the easiest to install (except shower valves Symmons#1), but I like the feel and look of Grohe! I put a Grohe (Euro style)in my kitchen two years ago and it still looks and performs like new.
I've installed a few Delta faucets and shower valves. They rarely leak and are very easy to fix. My current home has Delta faucets and Moen shower valves (my old house had all Delta faucets and valves). The Moens are OK, but I still like the Delta better. Currently having a problem tightening inlet fittings on Moen shower valve to stop leaking - major PIA.

What about Danze? I have a whole house full of Danze fixtures with no problems...yet. (knock, knock....ouch) They seem to be well built (all brass, no plastic, ceramic valves, etc.) Just curious why they were left off the list.
I like the Moens when they come from a real plumbing supplier. HD sells the same kit I like to use, but their version (same part numbers) is mostly plastic.
Moen has me on a callback wait... 1.5 hours.
I'm thinking 3 people covering 57 states... whaddya think?

I dunno Rugged...
The longest wait I ever had was a we'll call you back in 10 minutes and they did. Maybe Mondays are worse... I'm off on Mondays...
Did you notice I've dicided to run for our nations highest office?
Can we get the HD Pegusus listed per AFK¿
I just post cuz I like to see my avatar.
my vote is for pegasus
How come glacier bay wasn't on the list
Since I found theis adjustment tool, my opinion of Moen has changed a bit.![]()
I worked on a Kohler Valvet this week...
Of course, it lived to its name. It leaked after a full rebuild.
