First impression was it's very light. Whilst I had no issues my self it's made of fairly thin metal, so i'd be cautious about how tight the tap can be clamped. Finish on the brushed nickle seems very good, though i've just fitted it so time will tell. There is a sort of ruberised filler inside which I would guess will help with sealing against the work surface. Overall a reasonable quality item. I would have liked to have seen it made from proper 18 grade (like a pan) stainless steel though.
