Received my order today, It was the correct type, a Standard 3-Tube Air Gap Faucet for RO systems. The product is of high quality and exactly the type of faucet I expected.

Just an FYI: due to the corrosive properties of RO water and the brine water traveling through the Air Gap Faucet you should expect to need to replace the Air Gap Faucet every several years, I have needed to replace mine 3 times in 13 years. I think the next time I will just replace the whole RO system.

I gave it only 4 stars because I don't know for sure which product I actually received. The Box is labeled Watts Premier Part# 116054 which according to the Watts website is the "Brushed Stainless Steel Air Gap Faucet" however the UPC tag# 9935-"116054", also on the box, clearly says "Brushed Nickel Air Gap Faucet" which is Watts Part# 116101, since brushed Nickel and Stainless look so similar I am not sure it is going to matter. But I will update after install and let you know which item I think I actually received. Perhaps Watts sells the same faucet under two descriptions and prices.

Update: I am fairly certain the faucet I received is Stainless Steel, even though the description on the box says "Brushed Nickel" The faucet clearly does not have the same bluish hue the new Brushed Nickel kitchen faucet has.

I bought this faucet (it does look nice) and the description called it standardized for all reverse osmosis systems. My system is reverse osmosis, but only has a single feed for cold water. This faucet arrived and had three small hoses coming out of it and my handyman/plumber said that water would run constantly through it and that I would be better off with a single feed system. It would cost more to install it with all the new hoses than it was even worth.

It was NOT clear that this was the case in the description. Make sure that your existing system is compatible with this product -- it is NOT necessarily STANDARD. Now I have to go to the post office and pay to have it shipped back and find a new compatible faucet.
