Delta Lenta 19802TLZ-CZ-DST Touchless Kitchen Faucet, Champagne Bronze, Pull-Down Sprayer

Metal construction and a Champagne Bronze finish give the Delta Lenta 19802TLZ-CZ-DST a defined look, while its pull-down sprayer and touchless activation focus on everyday sink tasks. It has a single handle and a 360-degree swivel, and is designed for deck mounting.

The faucet can be activated by placing a hand within 4 inches of its surface, tapping the faucet, or using the handle. That gives you more than one way to control the water, though buyer feedback on touch operation is mixed.

Worth noting

The ShieldSpray sprayer is designed to direct a concentrated stream while containing splatter. Delta states it produces an average of 90% less splatter than a standard spray, that is a manufacturer claim, not a guarantee for every sink or task. The wand uses MagnaTite magnetic docking to hold it in place when not in use. Diamond Seal Technology is also designed to reduce leak points, and the faucet comes with a Lifetime Limited Warranty.

Buyer feedback highlights the Champagne Bronze color and reports that installation is easy for some owners. Experiences with operation are less consistent: some appreciate the touchless feature, while others describe intermittent activation or water running unexpectedly. Reports on water pressure and dripping also vary. Those comments are worth weighing if dependable sensor response is your main reason for choosing this model.

How to use it

For installation, the faucet fits a 1-hole setup or a 3-hole sink with 8-inch centers using the included deck plate. It is deck-mounted, and the manufacturer says integrated supply lines are included. The touchless sensor uses capacitive sensing and can be switched off, sensitivity modes can also be changed to suit the countertop and sink materials. The handle remains another way to operate the faucet.

Power is battery-operated: six AA batteries are included, with an approximate one-year life, or six C batteries can be used for an approximate three-year life, C batteries are not included. An optional AC adapter is sold separately. These power choices give you flexibility, but they also make battery planning part of ownership.

Who it’s for

This model may suit a kitchen where hands-free activation, a pull-down sprayer, and a coordinated Champagne Bronze finish are priorities. The option to use the handle or tap the faucet adds alternatives to sensor activation during food prep or cleanup. A solid pick if those controls and the finish match what you want at the sink. It’s not for you if you specifically want a faucet without touch-sensing features, or if mixed reports about sensor behavior would be a dealbreaker.

Questions before you buy

Will it fit a 3-hole sink? Yes. It is listed for 1-hole or 3-hole installations with 8-inch centers, the included deck plate is used for the 3-hole configuration.

Can you turn off touchless activation? Yes. The manufacturer describes an option to disable it, along with sensitivity modes that can be changed for different countertop and sink materials.

What power does it use? It runs on six AA batteries, included, or six C batteries, not included. An AC adapter is available separately.

When it makes sense

Compared with a basic handle-only faucet, the Lenta adds hands-free sensing, touch activation, and a pull-down wand, so it makes more sense when those extra controls will be useful in your kitchen. Its finish and included deck plate may also help if you are matching existing fixtures or fitting a compatible 3-hole sink. If you prefer the simplest possible setup, or want to avoid battery-powered sensing, a conventional faucet without those features is the more direct fit.
