    What brand of faucet is this?
    I need to find parts for my kitchen faucet. I have no idea what brand make or model it is. It was in the house when I moved in. I can't replace the faucet at this time so I thought I might just repair it.Name: Kitchen Faucet.JPG Views: 295 Size: 903.4 KB

    Low water pressure at the faucet and sprayer. I've removed the aerator and cleaned it, also removed and cleaned the diverter, still low pressure. It's the only faucet in the house with low pressure.

    Rental.. I'd call landlord... if you bought it, I'd replace the faucet for what they cost. Assuming you don't have a partially closed shutoff valve under the cabinet.

    Turn water off, remove one stem, go to local Hardware store or Home Depot, and show them the cartridge. They will have it. Since this is lever handle faucet, the handles turn opposite of each other. So, there will be different cartridge for HOT and COLD side. Get both.

    Hope that helps

    Is it a stem from one of the handles or is it a diverter that switches water from spout to hand-held sprayer ?

    It's the diverter that switches the water from spout to spray. If I remove it completely I get good pressure from the spout and sprayer, with it in the pressure to the spout and sprayer is decreased significantly.

    This is a low end faucet, usually sold in HD or Lowe's. Take the diverter to the store, show them the photo of the faucet, and they will be able to help you.

    As far as the brand goes - it looks like Pearless or Aquastar to me

    Hope that helps
