I've no idea where my last post re: M87046 Adler is, but i thought i posted about it as my final decision for a kitchen faucet, after my issues with the leaky Peerless.

So far so good (as it seems good quality - knock-on-wood) albeit some issues, such as:

(1) the handles are sorta long, thus knocks into the sprayer which is one hole away to the right of the cold-water handle.

Also, believe it or not, with the "low-arc" Adler, there's a bit more clearance between spout & sink bowl than i had with the Moen Muirfield, which when viewed online, had deceptively seemed to be a high-arc faucet.

However, the Adler's clearance has been a small-bit better with the aerator it came with, by approx. 1/8".
And yes, every bit counts! Yet i changed it. Why? Because the flow of the Adler aerator was very slow (since Moen likes water efficiency). But i prefer "time efficiency" to water efficiency. And so:

(2) The next issues are, that my own non-adler aerator gushes out with a sorta-weird "spiral" shape.
And also that the clearance is 1/8" less, with my weird spirally-gushing aerator.
