The Worst
We own two of the Stainless Steel Vero 553LF’s we installed in a new home. They are without a doubt the worst faucets we have ever owned. Water flow is spotty and the water splashes everywhere. My wife has ruined numerous rayon pieces of clothing due to the water splashes. Also no easy way to clean out the aerator when they have any kind of debris in them. In a house full of Delta plumbing products - this is one that needs a complete rethink.

Beautiful faucet, but a splashing mess!
If your looking for a faucet just for looks I recommended. However, for practical purpose is noisy, a splashing mess with no water pressure.

Feel, and install is second to none.

Great faucet - not for the novice installer
I was a little nervous because so many people have said the splash from the faucet was too much. We have found that not pushing the lever all the way to the stop will limit the flow enough to eliminate excessive splashing. Do most people only use their faucet wide open? It is possible to calibrate the flow from a decent valve below the sink if you can't control yourself from pushing the lever all the way for maximum water flow. Do you turn your garden hose on full blast and complain it is too forceful? No, the flow is limited by using the valve to limit the flow. It is not rocket science and using common sense before installation will save you from the negative feelings of a poor review when most of the complaint could be solved with some thought on your own. There is no aerator - there may be splash with any non-aerated faucet. Take into consideration the sink design does it have a flat bottom? is it too small for the flow of what you expect, is it deep enough for Niagara Falls-like flow?

Beautiful design... water flow :(
We have two of the sink 553LF-SS and the 3553LF-SS on our tub. Absolutely love the design and look of them but wish the water flow didn't cause the splashing that it does. In looking at the various comments I am wondering if our plumber didn't install the stream straighteners. I can't seem to find them anywhere but would be interested to see if they help with our frustrations on flow.

Captivating at the faucet and the flow.
Had these faucets installed during a reno of 3 yrs ago. We have conditioned water which may help with the spotting; however, can use pre-moistened cleaning wipes periodically to really make them shine. Did a lot of investigation upon choosing these. Others may like to note: at least at that time, Delta offered different filter squares to insert for water outflow adjustment. This "laminar flow" esp is not aerated, which one of the reasons why I chose them! Wish others had better luck for various reasons of unhappiness.

Corrosion and Splashing
I purchased two Delta Vero 553LF-SS bathroom faucets for my bathroom remodels. I loved the look and tolerated the splashing but am very unhappy with the corrosion around the water spout. Instead of showing off my bathrooms, I am embarrassed with how bad the faucets look. I do not have a corrosion problem on my new Delta kitchen faucet or new Delta shower head that I purchased at the same time. Disappointed especially at $500 each.

Nice looking but Poor design
We did a bathroom remodel 6 yrs ago using this attractive faucet. First of all, it is not aerated so any volume of water that comes out splashes up and makes the mirror, the counter, my clothing all wet which has required me to wipe down everything after use. Clothing gets quite wet and uncomfortable. The pop up drain assembly has not functioned for the past 3-4 yrs. Last of all, the surface has already pitted. We are replacing our faucet but this time I will read all reviews and not purchase from a high end plumbing fixture store and make a purchase based on positive reviews.

Water flow
Form seems to overshadow function. Water stream is harsher than expected, therefore there is splashing when it hits the bowl. Not a matter of water flow, as it seems to be worse, the lower the water flow.

Needs to be redesigned
I bought this several months ago and it has not worked properly since. The water hits the pop up and splatters all over the person using the sink. When I tried to get it repaired I was told the warranty does not cover any repairs. They sent the parts they say I need without any directions. When I finally got the instructions I needed a plumber to fix the problem. Delta will not back up their products. I wish I had read the reviews before I purchased this product.

Corrosion Problem
We installed this faucet in our newly remodeled guest bathroom and within a few months it began to corrode around the water outlet and the splashing is horrible. Every time I use it I get water all over my clothes. The water hits the "pop up" drain and goes everywhere. We have Delta faucets throughout our home with no problem, except this one. I'm trying to replace the water filter but can't find one anywhere. I'm so disappointed in the quality of this Delta product.

Corrosion and splashing are both unacceptable.
We are on our second of these faucets and both the original one and its replacement started to corrode around the spout within a few weeks of our beginning use. We have a whole-house water softener, and we don’t have this corrosion problem with any other faucet in the house. So I concur with many other reviewers on this corrosion issue. Also, I completely agree with other reviews about the unacceptable level of splashing this faucet causes, even at a very low output. This faucet is a mess and really disappointing.

This is gorgeous. Works Great . Easy To Install. Delta Does A Great Job With Keeping Their Valves The Same So You Can Change Hardware.

Hot water pressure and temperature very low
I tried to increase hot water pressure and temperature by replacing cartridge. It made a small but noticeable difference not to customers liking. What else can I try delta 553LF

Great looking, water goes everywhere!
Just finished our bathroom remodel. Splurged on the vero series of faucet and trim and it looks gorgeous. Unfortunately I failed to read the reviews on this faucet and the water goes everywhere. It does not matter if it is right over the drain or if you put your hands deep in the bowl—there is no way to avoid getting water everywhere. It was so expensive but is non returnable and it makes the bathroom a mess all the time. Very disappointed and now we are trying to not use the sink.

Corrosion and water marks
We recently built our dream home and put Delta Vero stainless steel faucets, body sprays, rain heads, and shower heads in all of our 4 bathrooms. We are extremely disappointed in the look of these stainless faucets. They look like they belong in a public restroom with splash marks and corrosion on each faucet. I have cleaned them all to no avail. The corrosion in our master bath sink faucets is unsightly. I hate the look of the "brilliant" SS. It will not get clean no matter what I try. We have a top end Culligan water softener system that was installed in our home when it was built and these faucets started corroding within a month. I think there is something wrong with the stainless finish. I wish I had gone with another brand in brushed nickel. See pictures below. Our home is only 8 months old and won the 2018 Parade of Homes in the $600K - $1 million category. After reading all the other reviews about splashing (which our faucets also do) and corrosion, I am amazed that Delta has not corrected this problem.

This faucet has no water pressure and splashes everywhere. Too bad, it's so beautiful to look at - but that's about it.

Faucets Ok, customer service not so much...
I have 3 Vero faucets in my home, they`re beautiful and work flawlessly excepy one leaks...the plumber that installed them put in 2 new cartridges, it still leaks...Delta agent insists I try another cartridge. They don't want to simply replace the whole faucet. Lifetime warranty? I highly doubt it....

IT IS A SHAME
For a product this beautiful and costly, it is a shame that the "brilliant" minds of DELTA cannot address the common splash issue associated with this product. The only reason I am giving it 2 stars is because of the outward design...minus one star for the splash issue, minus one star for the poor customer service and minus one star for the price.

Doesn't Deserve 1 Star
If I could rate this with a zero star I would. The spout corrodes even following cleaning directions using a white vinegar solution. Perhaps because we have 'hard' water. However,the rain shower and other shower heads are fine. Throwing well over a thousand dollars out the window for someone else to find is a better use of your money. This faucet should be off the market!

Corrodes
The spout end of the faucet has continued to corrode, despite cleaning it regularly with CLR and/or LimeAway to try to stave it off. It’s in my main floor powder room and is a complete embarrassment.

Great design, single handle
Bought this faucet last month as a bathroom remodel. It looks great but the Stream Straightener RP76571 causes the water to splash, sometimes out of the sink bowl. The Stream Straightener needs to be redesigned; more like the Aerators of other Delta faucets.

Poor functionality
We have endured this faucet for years since installation. It is terrible, it splashes water everywhere! This is not a new problem. Why is Delta still selling this defective product? no Aeration so water splashes all over the sink. We use another bathroom to avoid using this fixture.
