Tools and Hardware Reviews of Price Pfister 049CB0K Avalon Double-Handle Widespread Lavatory Faucet, NickelCustomer Review: Reliable if you get a good one Summary: 3 Stars
We remodeled our townhouse and bought two of the Avalon faucets in nickel for the two baths. The first faucet had several flaws. First, the hot water knob scraps against the base ring when you turn it on. Meanwhile the cold water knob has a noticeable gap between the bottom and the base ring. I'd say 1mm on the hot side and 3mm on the cold side. You notice it as soon as you can see the sink.
We called the customer service line to learn there is no way to adjust the inner body to fix the problem. They did offer to send two new bodies, but it's a pain to reinstall because there's no way to know whether the new ones will be better aligned. Second problem with the faucet is at the spout. Each time I turn it on, there's a stray stream of water, sometimes it's spits out bits of water towards the left, sometimes there's a small stream to the right. I will soak the aerator in a vinegar solution to see if it fixes the problem. Otherwise, Price Pfister offered to send me another aerator.
The strange thing is that the second faucet we installed seems perfectly fine. The knobs and base rings align fine and the water streams out like any other faucet. I like the finish and the height of the faucet head over the sink. It looks great with our new granite counters.
It's peculiar that in the same order we could have a normal faucet and one with so many different issues. At least I've been satisfied with the manufacturer's response to my complaints. My plumber says this brand is okay but not the best. He truly believe you get what you pay for when it comes to faucets.
