my bathroom faucets are too small. I think I am going to buy the universal adapter, and see if I can fit it over the kitchen faucet nozzle... I am not over confident I can, but after looking at the sink again, and the universal adapter, I am less sure. it is only like $6 bucks, so it's worth a shot. if it doesn't work, then I'll donate it to someone in the club who might need it then.

Your kitchen faucet has to come apart. You have to be able to take it apart to clean/replace the aereator, screen, and washers. I'd go back to the store were you got it, take down the display model and really give it a good looking over. We just got a new faucet last year that looks like it would have the same problems. When I examined the display models, I realized they've gotten really good at giving it a clean, single piece construction look while cleverly hiding the "servicability".

If for some reason, it doesn't come apart, which I've never heard of, then you need to convince your wife that you need to exchange it because if you can't service it, it'll clog with mineral deposits and silt and you'll have to buy a new one in a couple of years anyway. And I know ours wasn't cheap.

Cheers.
