The Moen 7565BLS offers the Align pull-down faucet in Matte Black Stainless, a two-tone finish that combines the warm gray undertones of stainless steel with a flat, non-reflective surface treatment. This finish bridges the gap between the warmer Spot Resist Stainless and the deeper Matte Black options in the 7565 lineup, making it a versatile choice for kitchens with mixed metal accents. Power Clean spray technology delivers 50% more spray force than standard Moen pull-down faucets at the same 1.5 GPM flow rate, and the Reflex self-retraction system keeps the wand docked securely after every use. A deck plate is included in the box for three-hole sink installation, and Duralock quick-connect fittings simplify the supply line hookup.
What is Matte Black Stainless and how does it differ from plain Matte Black or Spot Resist Stainless?
Matte Black Stainless is a hybrid finish that applies a matte, non-reflective treatment over a stainless steel base, resulting in a cool gray-black tone. Plain Matte Black (7565BL) has a deeper, warmer black with no metallic undertone. Spot Resist Stainless (7565SRS) retains the bright, warm silver tone of stainless steel with a protective coating. Matte Black Stainless sits between the two, offering a cooler, subdued look that pairs well with stainless appliances while still reading as a dark accent finish.
Does the Moen 7565BLS come with a matching deck plate?
Yes. A Matte Black Stainless deck plate is included in the box for three-hole sink installation. If your sink has a single mounting hole, the deck plate is not needed and can be set aside.
How many spray settings does the 7565BLS have?
Two. The wand toggles between a steady stream for filling and Power Clean spray for rinsing tasks. Power Clean delivers 50% more force than standard Moen pull-down faucets at the same 1.5 GPM flow rate by concentrating the spray into a tighter, higher-velocity pattern.
Is the Matte Black Stainless finish covered by Moen's warranty?
Yes. Moen's Limited Lifetime Warranty covers the finish on the 7565BLS for the life of the original residential purchaser. If the finish shows manufacturing defects, Moen will replace the affected component or the faucet at no charge.
What sink hole configuration is required for the Moen 7565BLS?
The faucet requires a single 1-3/8 in. mounting hole. The included deck plate allows installation in three-hole sinks with 4 in. or 8 in. center-set spacing. It is not designed for two-handle configurations.
