I know these things are economy trailers but that POS faucett is just crazy cheap. Has anyone else accidentally pulled up or bumped their faucett while cleaning some dishes and had the spout come completely come out of the base? I have, it is like Old Faithful inside the camper. The spout isn't even locked into the base. You can just pull it out. It is basically just one of those garden hose quick connects but it is only held in by friction. It doesn't lock at all. I know faucetts can get a bit expensive and KZ probably saved $25 by putting in the $5 faucett instead of bottom end real faucett. OK, rant is over now and I am happy to say that I went out and bought a MOEN kitchen faucett at Menards today and it is installed and ready for me to dewinterize the camper for the coming season.

Nothing fancy, but at least I don't have to worry about the spigot coming out of the base any more. I still cannot beleive how cheap that faucet was.

Yah, both H/C water lines both come down through one middle hole. The faucet was great. It had flex lines about a foot and half to two feet long which made the hookup under the counter easy. But I did need to get simple adapters to hook them up to the Pex lines in the trailer.

With the ability to shut off a faucet, the other faucet and everything else can still be used while a repair is made.
