OK we still have low water pressure in the kitchen sink, when we disconnected the hoses and opened them up on reverse, water ran through them into bucket, so there's no blockage in hoses, also replaced aerator and cartridge. Getting lower by the day...

Excuse me if I am mentioning something that you have already checked, but is the water valve all the way open that is leading to the sink?

In addition to checking to see if the water's all the way on try removing the aerator and seeing if that improves the flow. Good luck, Tom

Yes, aerators replaced and cleaned every couple of months, new cartridge put in... pressure is fine under sink through hoses... (?)

Did remove it and no did not improve, replaced aerator also and did not improve, checked hoses under sink water flows fine through them is just not making it through faucet, yes cleaned faucet also no debris :(
Would the diverter have anything to do with it? Still baffled guys/gals?
Anyone else have any suggestions?

When you had the valve apart did you turn the water back on for a moment to flush about the supplies and to check the flow? Let me know, Tom
