Why it's buy-it-for-life
Made in the USA and reported to run for decades with minimal maintenance, though commenters note even long-lived units eventually need replacing after about 30 years regardless of brand.
What owners say
One commenter says Woodford and Prier faucets are made in the USA and will last decades without much maintenance, but cautions that no current model is truly buy-it-for-life and that after roughly 30 years any brand will need replacing.
