I bought this faucet and absolutely love it,,, crazy easy to install. Unfortunately, after 6 years use, the threaded shaft that extends from the bottom of the faucet, has corroded and failed. I will definitely buy a replacement if I can find one. Unfortunately, Costco no longer stocks the polished nickel version, only matte black. After 6 years, the only improvement I'd like to see is a user-replaceable screen on the spray head. The holes are very tiny, and calcium/lime deposits in the water-supply, limit the available pressure. Nothing I can't live without. Great product.
The limit of range of motion is so people or children don't flood their counter top. If you have something big on one side, swing the faucet to the other side. The clamp is meant to load and unload by slipping down, not pushing through sideways. The spring is very accurately counter balancing. The low spray pressure looks disappointing. These new center, top mount installs are using smaller hoses, maybe that limits flow a little.
not sure why you want so much water pressure. if you have a dishwasher, you don't want it so clean when you put dishes in the dishwasher, or the dishwasher will not work properly. you can always remove the flow limiter, which is mandatory in US sold units: that makes water flow in either mode much better. agree with Art about range of motion limits. i remodeled my house, bought two: my previous experience with these is that the nozzle fails most often, and it's nice to 1. have a box with a new unit to cannibalize, and 2. to get the info for replacement parts, as Costco rarely keeps models long enough to go back and buy another when one fails. Could keep the box or insert, but I've found they always get lost in time like tears in the rain.
