(Part 2) Best touch on kitchen sink faucets according to redditors

This renovation took wayy longer than anticipated (which, isn't that always the case?). My boyfriend and I did a lot of the work ourselves as well.

We tore out the old kitchen, did all the tiling (my first time!), repaired drywall, painted the walls, ceilings and all of the trim, and replaced the track lighting for more modern lights.

We left the cabinets, countertop, flooring, electrical and plumbing to the pros!

Edit!

• Cabinet colour is Benjamin Moore Cosmopolitan
  
  
• Cabinet hardware is Lew's Hardware from Myknobs.com (my favourite website to say!). Knobs here. / Bar pulls here.
  
  
• Countertops are quartz and are 'White Attica' from Caesarstone.
  
  
• Backsplash tiles are from Home Depot. They're mini-subway tiles on mesh sheets. I can't seem to find them anymore on the website.
  
  
• Gold brackets for shelves are from Anthropologie
  
  
• Wood for shelving was commissioned from local wood maker but they're reclaimed Douglas fir that's been stained to look like Walnut.
  
  
• Sink is from a company called Zuhne - got it off Amazon
  
  
• Faucet is Kraus Oletto also purchased from Amazon

Delta makes peerless ^^

Service and repair plumber here. Rental properties: get whatever you can for the price you can afford. If it's a 1400/m rental, toss a 150$ moen faucet in with as few moving parts as possible. It won't last 15 years. No faucet will last 15 years anymore in a rental. Get a swing spout faucet.

Cheap rental:

Is what I would toss in because it is very easy to repair(I said repair).

Cheap, but doesn't look terrible.

I have these touch faucets and they are great. Two at my home feel so secure when you try to shake or lift them, it feels like you'd rip the countertop off. Well worth the money but they do have a non touch version that's cheaper

Oh gotcha. This one looks nice and big for $100 less than the SS one I was eyeing. Might be able to get a nice big faucet or something like this.

Thanks for the link!

I have a similar faucet to this one, it's really nice. Pull down sprayer is magnetic, has a high-volume pot-filling mode too. $175 is a good deal, almost entirely 5 star reviews on Amazon.

If you're a citizen of the UK, can't you just go on America's Amazon.com (as opposed to the UK version) and order a regular sink/faucet?

Like this or something.

Totally agree. I moved into this apartment a couple years ago and the original double sink from 1950 was in the kitchen. They wanted to "upgrade" us to a crappy $40 stainless steel sink and increase our rent based on a host of similar renovations. I told the landlord we would take it as is, promptly threw out the ugly faucet they had installed and replaced it with this one which I continue to be in love with two years down the road. Easily the best upgrade I have done in my 20 years of renting.

Okay here, tell me what's wrong with this product...

So you go to a flea market owned by ABC company and one of the merchants is selling crack are you trying to tell me that ABC company has no legal ramifications? If it is illegal to sell crack and you allow people to sell crack through you, how can you say you have no responsibility.

Truth

I'm really optimistic about this

My wife's idea. We'll find out on Wednesday how it is

This faucet does that, but I don't recommend it unless you need a cheap faucet, ours crapped out after a year: Kraus KPF-2250 Single Lever... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OM7DDC4?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

This one does it too (most of the time, it occasionally sticks in spray). I wanted a name brand faucet but had trouble finding one that listed the back to stream feature: WEWE Single Handle High Arc... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01H3OMH7Y?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I am trying to connect an RO type faucet like this
to a standard sink supply line. Id like to tee off of the sink supply line to provide the faucet with its own water supply (it will have an inline filter). I am not sure of the correct reducers to get for this. I ordered this
but the male end is just a touch too large. I am obviously not the most knowledgeable when it comes to plumbing sizes, but I would greatly appreciate any help!

I brew beer at home, so I regularly fill 15 gallons or more and I just slip a piece of silicone tubing over my filter faucet.

I just have one of the regular like this https://www.amazon.com/iSpring-GA1-BN-Filtration-Systems-Brushed-Nickel-Contemporary/dp/B00FZ2HAY2/ref=sr_1_6?crid=1FIZRE6PP9IPU&keywords=drinking+water+faucet&qid=1564671168&s=gateway&sprefix=drinking+water+faucet%2Caps%2C162&sr=8-6 and I slip a piece of silicone tubing over it, 5/16th tubing works for mine.

You might find a size of tubing in vinyl that would work, but silicone is a lot more flexible, so it goes on easier.

We just bought the house and this was the first major thing (other than the dishwasher) that we've done. I kind of failed on taking progress pictures (sorry, I'm bad at that.) got all of the new items on amazon.

I plan on doing one giant before an after album once we go through all the things we want to fix/remodel in the house.

I have this ridiculously expensive faucet.

This is what happens when you and your husband look at a million different faucets and find exactly one that one of you doesn't hate and you just say fine and get out the checkbook. Downside. Holy shit why did I spend so much money on a faucet (I actually got a better price than that, there was a coupon or something maybe at build.com? It was 3.5 years ago)

Upside, No leaking, hose comes out smoothly, feels solid, temp adjustment is good. Looks great in our kitchen. Brizo is I think, a delta brand.
