Was frustrated and ready to call a plumber, even already having the replacement faucet on hand. But your video saved me by solving the mystery of how to release the old faucet from the sink - it's one nut that can be removed with a deep socket! Outstanding clarity + solution - you win the prize for helping this handyman maintain his self esteem. Thank you!!

This video made the job easy. Thank you. In my case the 5/8" nut on the spray hose connection, and the nut on the faucet itself were very corroded and did not want to come loose. A pair of short channel lock pliers broke the hose nut free, but nothing would break the 5.8" nut loose using hand tools. I finally got my impact wrench and used an extension and 5/8 deep socket to get the nut off of the faucet mount. No problem. Just a lot of rusted flakes all over the place.
