Very sleek design
Overall I am happy with this faucet. There are a couple things that I would tweak - however it's a great faucet. It looks exactly as pictured. Installation was easy enough to understand. There were a couple of steps in the instructions that were already completed within the handles. Since it's 3-hole there are a few extra steps compared to a single-hole faucet. Make sure to purchase new water lines and new stops prior to installing this (or any) faucet. This is wide-set, but I did use it on my pedestal sink (that's not wide-set) without any issues where it wouldn't fit. I think that it was actually easier on my pedestal sink since there is not any cabinets in the way of work and I was able to take my sink off of the pedestal to install the faucet. The only thing that could be improved is that when you align and tighten the handles from underneath, they do not get all the way tight to the point of not moving at all. They don't freely move around, but if you put pressure on them and try to move them, they move. The faucet is complete with the included drain assembly that works perfectly - I really like the drain. One small issue is that when I have the water on - it does come out fast and splashes up out of the sink. This could be because of the depth of my sink, but maybe not. All-in-all it's a great faucet and really makes my bathroom look new.

Dumbest Drain Design Ever
I love the looks and functionality of this faucet set. We installed two in our master bath and they look terrific! The problem however, is with the drain. You can only push it down to close and re-open. The issue is that when the plug sticks down due to stickiness in the drain there is no way to pull it back up. I had to completely remove the trap to pust it up with the handle of a hammer to open it. Since I quit closing it after that day the drain is now completely stuck in the "up" position.

Looks good, but not a good faucet
The faucet looks fantastic and feels like a quality product. The problem is when you turn the hot or cold the the maximum flow? It splashes and gets me wet. I read reviews about this, but still chose to buy and install these. I do not recommend this product.

Finish corrodes and pits.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased and had installed this faucet in 2016 and after two years the finish started to corrode and pit. I contacted Delta and at first they said that it was what I used to clean it that corroded the faucet. I was using a Scrubbing Bubbles and a soft cloth. After sending them extensive proof of the finish they sent me replacement handles. I had to pay a plumber to install the new handles. I’ve been cleaning it with vinegar and water and it pitted again It’s only been three years.
i will never buy a delta faucet again.

Looks good but not user friendly
Installed this when we remodeled our bathroom couple of years ago. It is a great looking faucet but from a functional perspective it doesn’t work well.

Delta Vero 3553
I am an Interior Designer and this product is stunning! However, due to the design of the sink used (a Kohler product), the water splashes everywhere. I would advise future consumers to buy a deep sink bowl without a gradual incline. If Delta would adjust the angle on the faucet, ever so slightly, this would not happen.

Beautiful, but the finish doesn't last
I love the color and style of this faucet! We bought the whole line for our tub/shower, sink, and even toilet handle. We have it in our guest bathroom, which doesn't get a ton of use...sadly the finish on the faucet is fading, which takes away from the original luxe look. I would recommend, but maybe not in champagne bronze. :(

Beautiful Design
The design and finish are beautiful. Have gotten comments from visitors. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is the way the water flows out of the faucet. The way the water hits your hands, it tends to splash onto the surrounding counter top.

Set screw in handle problem
The 3553LF is a beautiful tub faucet assembly but the handles keep pulling off no matter how tight the set screw is set! Maybe a part is missing? There is a screw hole in the top of the stem; is it there for a reason ? The builder didn’t leave me the installation instructions, so I don’t know if something is missing.

LOVE this faucet
We got this in the champagne bronze (wide set) to replace an old faucet. We're very happy with it, and haven't had the splashing issues that other reviewers have had (perhaps because my water flow doesn't fall on the drain).

Look great but functional issues
We installed a set into both of our bathroom sinks. Both sink push-pop plugs have always been poor at holding in sink water. We now have to leave some water running to retain water level
Also, 2 of the 4 handles go past the “off” position and go behind where they are supposed to go. The stop doesn’t work

We have had these faucets in our master bath and they have corroded, leaked, and the handles never align properly.

Stylish but Splashes Users
We purchased two of the vero faucet wide spread vanity champagne bronze faucets for our master bath remodel. They are very design conscious and look wonderful, but we need lobster bibs to use them. The water stream hits the drain cap and splashes absolutely everywhere, so that we walk away soaked. I am only relieved I didn't purchase these for the guest bath or powder room. If there's a "fix" for this, please share! Recommend it for looks, but otherwise, we'll need to reduce star rating.

Vero tub faucet: beautiful and functional
We just installed this set in bright chrome on our new white freestanding acrylic tub. The tub is designed for a deck mount and this faucet set is perfect.
The faucet itself is designed to go up and then out so it takes up a little less space than those Roman tub sets that extend way into the tub.
It’s visually beautiful and delivers a nice stream of water. Our installer was VERY impressed with the quality and ease of installation.

Love the Look, BUT....
We just renovated our master bath and installed two on each vanity. It looks great but we get splashed and my husband likes to shave in the sink and when you push down the drain stopper, it doesn't hold the water. It's a slow drain...we didn't realize it when we purchased. It is a chore to always wipe dry to keep it looking clean & shining each time you use it.

Looks good but the worst purchase of my life
I bought 3 of these faucets and one for our tub. They have never been anything except a problem. I have had a Delta rep come out and he couldn't figure out the problem with them. The handles do NOT stop where they should and go backwards with the water still running. On top of that even the base doesn't stay in place and rotates on the sink. This happens with all of these faucets. Do your self a favor and stay far away from these.

Love the look. The polished chrome does show spots but I just quickly wipe it down after use. Also absolutely no problem with the aerator mentioned in some of the reviews—water comes out in a nice ribbon stream. Very attractive— just noticed this faucet was featured in a cCarte and Barrel ad for bathroom towels etc.

Such a beautiful faucet!
I’m an interior designer and just used this faucet in my own powder bath. It’s a quality piece and such a showstopper! Love the champagne bronze finish... it’s expensive looking!

Tired of being splattered
We are very dissatisfied with the faucet due to the splattering. Each time the faucet is used we get wet along with the counter around the sink. Very disapointed with this faucet especially at the cost.

3553LF water splashes outside the sink
Water splashing on your clothes and floor while in use. Call Delta they sent out aerator to replace, its round and will not fit. Contractor that installed faucet came out and turn down the water to a point its very low and it still splash hitting my stopper. The other option use one side and get less water splashing on clothes and floor.
Delta rep was blaming my sink not being deep enough, after I mentioned the sink is standard size and I have three sinks with same size and the other two has no problems with splashing and I have Delta faucets on both. Its the faucet in my one bathroom that either is not designed properly possibly the spout maybe it should be arch a little more outward.

A Pretty Faucet But...
We bought this faucet 2 years ago during a bathroom remodel. I love the design BUT already the chrome is bubbling in spots on the bases and corroding. I do not use harsh chemicals or scouring powder/pad when cleaning it so not sure why this is doing it. I'm rather disappointed to say the least considering the price.

Love but minor issue
I absolutely love my new faucet! My husband installed and it looks stunning. However both the levers (handles) go completely around... It does shut off at the mid point but the actuall levers can do a 360 degree turn. Is this how it should be? This is the only reason why I did not give it 5 stars. Please help!!!

I was very pleased with the actual faucet when it arrived. The purchase was made from a picture on the Delta site. It far exceeded the picture.

We chose Delta for its quality and warranty
We were not disappointed with our choice. The Vero collection is sleek and modern, exactly what we wanted. We have the Vero fittings inour powder room, the main bathroom andits shower. Quality and design is what Delta brought to our renovationst

Nice looking contemporary fixtures
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had our plumber install this, so can't speak to installation except to say that for our plumber it went smoothly. The finished look is good and the fixtures appear to be of solid quality that will last a long time. These were on the spendy side for us, but the end look makes me think it was money well spent.
My one concern is the square bases of each of the fixtures. Even though they are tightly secured to the sink, even the slightest movement will make them look off kilter from each other. This is a problem where the base is angular rather than the more typical round faucet bases. When the round ones move slightly on top of the sink, you don't notice it. But when it's square it becomes almost impossible for it to ever properly line up and I find myself constantly adjusting all the angles on the faucet lever and the bases to get them to look ok. It's pretty frustrating and I'm not sure how to fix it other than removing the fixtures and having our plumber superglue them in place (more $$). Also, the lever handles are super hard to get in a line too, so that one is either too far back or too far forward to be 'square.'
The fixtures themselves are really nice though, it's just something to bear in mind for installation. And of course, being chrome, they only look good when polished and even the slightest water splash will make them look dirty.

Love the style and look
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace a silver fixture in my new house because on my pedestal sink in main downstairs bathroom because I like the venetian bronze color better. I wanted something different and I didn't know exactly what style to pick and this one turned out to be perfect. It's versatile and the spout is very pretty and the way the water pours out of the faucet is just beautiful.

Nice look for a modern new bathroom
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these faucets for our master bathroom that we remodeled with a modern style. Nice finishing and available for all the faucet family (sinks, bath tub, shower, ...). Easy to install and the faucets were shipped to my house in 2 days with other products.
