I am remodeling my kitchen with a new granite countertop and want to get a new commercial-style faucet for it.

I am looking at the Danze D455158SS Stainless Steel Pre-Rinse High-Arc Kitchen Faucet from the Parma Collection and the Blanco 440557 Satin Nickel Meridian Single Handle Pulldown Kitchen Faucet.

Though I like the looks of the Blanco slightly better, the Danze is $200 cheaper. Also, the Danze pull out handle is made of plastic while the Blanco handle has a steel casing. I've read a few reviews that claim the Danze handle wears after time.

I'd like to save some money, but not if it's a cheap knock-off. Any advise would be appreciated.
