I’ve had multiple leaking faucet issues in my kitchen the last two years. I bought an expensive Moen… it leaked. They replaced it under warranty, the replacement leaked the EXACT same way. Now we have a Kohler and it’s leaking the SAME way.
Why are all of these brands/faucets complete trash? Are there any that aren’t complete trash? These are like $200 faucets.
What gives?

Delta but not from a box store. A $200 kitchen faucet is cheap
Define leak
Pool of water in the cabinet below. Leak is coming from the center column inside where the copper pipes attach to the faucet itself. I’ve had this happen with two different Moen and now a Koehler.
Do you happen to know what your incoming water pressure is? You can buy a cheap pressure gauge that screws on to a hose bib at any hardware store.
I don’t but that seems like an interesting suggestion. I’ll check it out.
It's worth a look. I've never had 3 brand name faucets fail at the same location in that span of time.
Delta is always my go to. Lifetime warranty and customer service is good, plus quality design. Where was it leaking? If it was just the cartridge assembly that might be more wear and tear than poor quality
Anything in a big box store is gonna do that. Getting real Koehler or moen will help
Can you recommend one? I’m open to spending more if it wil last.
Go Moen. Seems like the faucets may not be the issue, or you have profanely bad luck.
