About 2 weeks ago the water pressure in my kitchen sink faucent has gradually gotton worse and worse. I unscrewd the screen thing and calcium deposits dropped out but that did not help. The pressure everywhere else is great as well as the sprayer in the kitchen sink. What's strange is the spray attachment works fine but when I turn it on the water still comes out of the faucet and that didn't always happen, the water from the faucet would stop and come solely out of the sprayer. I am not very handy but would like to try and tackle this myself if I could. Please help!

I would again remove the areator and then flush the spout out with the areator off. Then rinse the areator out well.

Yeah I did that. I tried to take the spout off but it wouldn't com off from up top and when I tried to tighten it back up I felt something snap and the spout came off. Don't know what I broke but I need a plumber now. Thanks anyway!:mad:

Uh, I had mentioned taking the areator off, not the spout.
Go to home depot and get a glacier bay faucet.

Save the paperwork, register the warranty.
