I paid a little more and waited a couple weeks to receive a Delta single handle faucet for my kitchen back in 2020, rather than just buying what was available on the shelf at Lowe's. Model: #400LF-WF. The reviews at the time said it was basically the same faucet made back in the 60s. I'm glad I did - it has been an excellent faucet.

It's interesting to see the prices back then - the model 400 cost $24.95 (see page 15), which would be around $260 today.

Incidentally, the newer variants also have flow restrictors, which aren't hard to remove.

Funny, that exact model dominates the shelf space at the Lowe's near me. Practically a whole bay for just those, over 50 in stock right now.
