An open spout is louder, wetter, and harder to descale · review
A 1.2 GPM single-handle waterfall bathroom faucet in SUS304 stainless, for holes from 0.98 inches.
That is the only flow rate on this shelf.
Five other faucets here talk about saving water — 30% from an aerator, 20% from a cartridge test — and not one of them says how much water comes out.
One point two GPM is the figure American efficiency rules are built around: California sets it for lavatory faucets, and a growing number of jurisdictions follow.
If the specification has to be shown to an inspector or a landlord, this is the only faucet on this shelf that has one to show.
The other number that matters, and the other number almost nobody publishes.
A faucet fits the hole or it does not. This takes a hole from 0.98 inches; the Fransiton on this shelf needs at least 1.25.
So a sink drilled at an inch — common on older and imported sinks, and on vessel bowls — accepts this faucet and not that one.
Four of the six faucets here publish no hole size at all.
Standard 3/8-inch female compression thread x M10 male connector.
Three-eighths compression is the American stub. M10 is metric, at the faucet end.
That matters because it tells you exactly what the supplied hoses are, which is more than most of this shelf does — the Fransiton publishes a 9/16 inch connection and leaves it there.
Great pressure, sometimes you may need to turn the water pressure down for better use.
An odd thing to say about a 1.2 GPM faucet, and the explanation is probably about the shape of the stream rather than the volume.
An ultra-wide waterfall spout spreads a thin sheet of water. At high water pressure a thin sheet hits a shallow sink and sprays sideways onto the counter — which is the standing complaint about waterfall faucets as a category.
This is the only listing on this shelf that raises it. The fix is the shutoff valve under the sink, closed a quarter turn.
No pop-up drain. Five of six faucets on this shelf include one; this listing does not mention a drain at all.
No cartridge cycle rating, where Fransiton publishes 600,000 and RUMOSE 500,000.
No spout height, and no warranty — where RUMOSE gives a limited lifetime at $37.99.

| Spout width | ULTRA-WIDE, per the maker, but NOT PUBLISHED AS A MEASUREMENT — « ultra-wide » is the claim three faucets on this shelf make and none of them puts a figure to it. 30.3 oz (860 g). |
|---|---|
| Spout drop | NOT PUBLISHED, and neither is the spout height. The mounting hole is 0.98 in (2.49 cm) to 1.57 in (4 cm) — THE SMALLEST MINIMUM ON THIS SHELF, which is what lets it into a narrow drilling. 1-hole, or 3-hole with the supplied deck plate, on a standard 3/8 in female compression thread by M10 male. |
| Aerator or flat screen | NOT STATED either way. THE MAKER'S OWN NOTE IS THAT THE PRESSURE IS GREAT AND SUGGESTS TURNING THE WATER PRESSURE DOWN FOR BETTER USE — which is an admission, not a specification. |
| Flow rate | 1.2 GPM / 4.5 L/min — THE ONLY FLOW FIGURE ON THIS SHELF, and the one number five of these six faucets leave out. |
| Cartridge | Premium ceramic, with NO CYCLE FIGURE PUBLISHED. No pop-up drain is mentioned and no warranty is published. Stated for bathrooms, powder rooms, RV bathrooms and master bathrooms. |

Because it is the number American efficiency rules are written around. The federal maximum for a lavatory faucet is higher, but California — and a growing list of jurisdictions that follow it — sets 1.2 GPM for bathroom faucets, and products are built to it. On this shelf it is also the only flow figure published at all: five listings talk about saving water and none of them says how much passes through. If a specification has to be shown to a building inspector or a landlord, this is the only faucet here that can show one.
It decides whether the faucet fits at all. Sink and vessel holes vary, and older or imported sinks are often drilled smaller than modern American faucets expect. This takes a hole from 0.98 inches (24.9 mm); the Fransiton on this shelf needs at least 1.25 inches. So a sink drilled at an inch takes this faucet and not that one — and four of the six faucets here publish no hole size whatever, which means ordering them is a gamble. Measure the hole first, then choose.
The listing says "Great pressure, sometimes you may need to turn the water pressure down for better use", and it sits oddly beside a 1.2 GPM rating. The likeliest reading is about the shape of the stream rather than the volume: an ultra-wide waterfall spout spreads a thin sheet, and at high water pressure a thin sheet hits the bottom of a shallow sink and sprays sideways. That is a real complaint about waterfall faucets generally, and this is the only listing on this shelf candid enough to raise it. The remedy is the shutoff valve under the sink, turned down a quarter turn.
Same category, nearby prices, between bathroom fittings. What remains is the specifications every one publishes — half empty, a column is no use.
| Model | Price | Spout width | Spout drop | Aerator or flat screen | Flow rate |

| Airuida single-hole waterfall faucet | $26 | ULTRA-WIDE, per the maker, but NOT PUBLISHED AS A MEASUREMENT — « ultra-wide » is the claim three faucets on this shelf make and none of them puts a figure to it. 30.3 oz (860 g). | NOT PUBLISHED, and neither is the spout height. The mounting hole is 0.98 in (2.49 cm) to 1.57 in (4 cm) — THE SMALLEST MINIMUM ON THIS SHELF, which is what lets it into a narrow drilling. 1-hole, or 3-hole with the supplied deck plate, on a standard 3/8 in female compression thread by M10 male. | NOT STATED either way. THE MAKER'S OWN NOTE IS THAT THE PRESSURE IS GREAT AND SUGGESTS TURNING THE WATER PRESSURE DOWN FOR BETTER USE — which is an admission, not a specification. | 1.2 GPM / 4.5 L/min — THE ONLY FLOW FIGURE ON THIS SHELF, and the one number five of these six faucets leave out. |
| Fransiton waterfall faucet, black | $27 | NOT PUBLISHED as a width — a waterfall spout on a single handle, 11 × 11 × 2.95 in (280 × 280 × 75 mm). | NOT PUBLISHED, and NEITHER IS THE HEIGHT, so how far above the sink the sheet of water starts is not established. What this listing does publish, alone on this shelf, is the deck it fits: a mounting hole of 1.25 to 1.6 in diameter and A MAXIMUM DECK THICKNESS OF 1.85 IN — the only deck thickness here, and the figure that decides whether the threads reach through a stone top. | NOT STATED either way by the maker. | NOT PUBLISHED BY THE MAKER. |
| RUMOSE tall waterfall vessel faucet | $38 | ULTRA-WIDE AND TALL, per the maker, but not published as a measurement. 1.77 × 6.50 × 11.8 in (45 × 165 × 300 mm), 1,297 g. | 300 MM TALL — the tallest published height on this shelf, for an above-counter sink, and twice the 5.98 in (152 mm) of the one faucet here built for a standard sink. Single hole, stated at 10 minutes with all parts and instructions included. THE MOUNTING HOLE SIZE AND THE SUPPLY CONNECTION ARE NOT SPECIFIED by the maker. | NOT STATED AS AERATED OR LAMINAR — which on a tall waterfall spout decides whether it splashes out of the bowl. | NOT PUBLISHED BY THE MAKER. |
| Ultimate Unicorn 4 in waterfall faucet | $44 | NOT PUBLISHED as a width. 4.02 × 2.01 × 5.98 in (102 × 51 × 152 mm), 1,678 g — THE HEAVIEST FAUCET ON THIS SHELF, nearly double the lightest here. | NOT PUBLISHED. The height is 5.98 in (152 mm), WHICH IS STANDARD SINK HEIGHT RATHER THAN VESSEL HEIGHT — so this is the one faucet on this shelf that will not clear a vessel sink. Installation 4 inch, and THE MOUNTING HOLE SIZE IS NOT PUBLISHED. | NOT STATED either way by the maker. | NOT PUBLISHED BY THE MAKER. |
