One hole, 1⅜ in (35 mm), and supply lines long enough for your countertop
A bathroom faucet is bought on three numbers and returned for a fourth. The three are faucet hole diameter — 1⅜ in (35 mm) is the near-universal single-hole standard, and a 1.26 in (32 mm) hole in an older sink needs an adapter —, spout reach, which decides whether the water lands in the bowl or on the rim, and spout height, which decides whether a hand fits under it. The fourth, the one that catches people out, is the supply line length: a faucet sold for a thin ceramic sink often has 11.8 in (30 cm) flexible supply lines that will not reach the valves under a thick stone countertop. Then there is the cartridge, and it matters more than the finish: a 1⅜ in (35 mm) ceramic disc cartridge is a spare part you can buy in five years, an unbranded 0.98 in (25 mm) one usually is not. We compare faucet hole diameter, spout reach and spout height, stated flow rate with its test pressure, cartridge diameter and type, body material, and finish.

The published faucet hole diameter must match the drilled hole. It is the check to make before buying.
It is a manufacturer figure at a stated pressure. This site reports it without taking any measurement.
The part that mixes hot and cold water. Its type and diameter are published on every listing.
It must bring the water toward the center of the bowl. Reach is published in millimeters.
It is published by the manufacturer. This site reports it without judging any durability.
This site publishes the stated finish and compares no upkeep.
This site publishes faucet specifications and describes no installation.
It decides the clearance under the spout. It is published on every listing.
Faucet hole diameter decides what fits, spout reach and height decide the daily use, and the cartridge decides what gets repaired instead of replaced.
The table keeps only the dimensions given by four products in five. Below that threshold, a column measures missing data rather than the product.
