A:  You can connect the faucet to a hose with adapter, The head is removable.

A:  Yes it can be installed without escutcheon, that’s the way mine is but I used the sprayer. But I’m sure you could cap it off

A:  The escutcheon is optional. We did not use it. Don't know about the sprayer but that sounds reasonable.

A:  You can install it without the plate. I have not tried to cap the sprayer.

A:  Yes, I did not use use escutcheon, easy install and a great faucet. I am very happy with the quality. As far as the sprayer, I don't have ant answer in the part you quoted, but if that part snaps onto the sprayer connector, I would guess that would work fine.

A:  First try to just clean the aerator located at the end of the spout. sometimes dirt gets in there when you first turn the line back on. Also you can remove the cartridge and check for debris but the aerator is most likely the problem.

A:  Not sure. My mother actually has a portable dishwasher. We were able to connect it to a Moen faucet, but it is not this particular faucet.

A:  I took the connector off of my old faucet and put it on this faucet and my dishwasher works great.

A:  Yes. I have a portable dishwasher and the faucet can be adapted. I bought the adapter at Home Depot and have used it successfully for a few years.

A:  Mine is perfect in every way.

A:  I've had this faucet several months and I haven't noticed low pressure in the faucet. And the sprayer is great. My experience has been a good one. The price was very reasonable and the look was just what I wanted. Sorry your having a problem.

A:  I believe you will find this is the case for most faucets now. This is most likely due to water conservation standards forcing manufacturers to limit the flow rate out of the faucets. I recently replaced all the faucets in my house and some in a house last year and this was true in all cases. There is a possibility that you could also have something clogging the screens in the aerator. You can unscrew it and check for obstructions.

A:  I know the pressure from my sprayer is stronger than what comes out of the faucet. I did check the sand screen after reading your question and found it had some pretty big chunks of debris clogging it. I'm sure you have checked that. It may be that it is built like this, but mine is the same. P.S. I have had mine 3 years and the sprayer hose cracked and then the sprayer itself didn't want to work. I had to buy the replacement sprayer and it is still the same as far as the water pressure.

A:  I replaced the strainer with a high flow one. Great faucet.

A:  I have had my faucet about 6 months. I have not noticed low water pressure. Both the faucet and sprayer work well.

A:  Hello Bev and thank you for your interest in Moen products. The Moen Walden Single-Handle Standard Kitchen Faucet with Side Sprayer and Microban Protection in Spot Resist Stainless low pressure could be due to the aerator or diverter.

A:  Remove the aerator screwed on the faucet spout and use a very small drill bit or paper clip to drill 3 small holes in through it where other holes exist on the inside of the aerator plastic.. This will enlarge the 3 holes. It is set for 1.5 gallon of water per minute and needs to run 2.5 gallon per minute or so. Make sure the drill bit or other object is no more than twice the size of the existing hole.

A:  Hello Frustrated and thank you for your interest in Moen products.

A:  Mine has been installed for over 6 months. It has not loosened. I am sorry I can’t help you.

A:  It never got loose. I gave a problem with the sprayer though. It doesn’t turn off at times.

A:  Mine always gets loose too, which is why I am on here searching for answers.

A:  Not at all. Had it for a year and a half and still works well and looks great

A:  Mine is over a year old and I love it. No problems at all. If loose at the base look to who installed it. If loose at the handle send it back and get a replacement.

A:  Mine has not. I am very happy with mine.

A:  It should not be doing that,. I would check your connections and if all else fails take it completely apart and start over. Ours works perfectly.

A:  I purchased two of these faucets and do not have that problem. Unfortunately, I don't know how to repair your issue. Any friends with plumbing knowledge? Who installed it? Or ask someone at your local Home Depot. Perhaps it's defective. Here is a link to an article that addresses the issue. It's an old article but still relevant. http://www.nytimes.com/1983/05/01/nyregion/home-clinic-fixing-a-faulty-kitchen-sink-spray-can-be-a-simple-matter.html

A:  hold spray button down before opening water value this should work

A:  It could be a malfunctioning diverter or that it is clogged with debris. The possible solutions are: A. Replace the diverter. B. Make sure that the valve body is cleaned. In some models, the diverter is installed in the valve body; on other models it is installed around the valve body under the spout. If it is one of these models, make sure the spout is cleaned as well. If the side spray does not shut off completely, it would also need to be replaced.

A:  I am currently using this faucet and have not encountered this problem. Check to make sure the line to the sprayer isn't kinked or twisted.

A:  the hose itself is too stiff for a weight to be effective. The good news....it should last.....

A:  The plumber that installed my faucet, said to run very hot water thru the sprayer. It worked great, and if it gets stiff, just use the hot water method again.

A:  I am sorry, but I have no idea if that would work. My hose doesn’t retract either. But I don’t expect it to. You might contact the manufacturer to ask your question. That seems like the best idea to solve your problem.

A:  I had the same problem. The sprayer hose is not flexible enough, and ours gets hung up on the cold water feed to the faucet. My husband had to tie the hose to the drain pipe which in my opinion is unacceptable. The hose should be more flexible. I am dissatisfied with this product.

A:  It's like a brushed chrome. I posted a pictureon my review.
