Getting Started
Use the following kitchen faucet buying guide to streamline your decision-making process and find the ideal faucet to complement your kitchen’s style and your lifestyle.
Make It Personal
There’s no one perfect faucet for every home. In addition to the way it coordinates with the design of your kitchen, your faucet also needs to function in a way that complements your unique daily routines.
Key Considerations
Kitchen faucets add beauty and functionality to your home, and choosing the right one will include thinking about how the style of the faucet will work with your existing decor along with the designs and features that will meet your family’s needs. Here are some of the key considerations to think about as you get started.
Start With the Sink
When installing a new faucet in an existing sink, the number of holes in your counter and/or sink is the first factor you’ll need to consider.
What’s Your Faucet Style?
Deciding whether you prefer traditional, transitional, or modern designs is important, but selecting the right faucet style is also about considering how you will use it.
You might consider whether you need a high-arch spout to accommodate a large pot and other hefty cookware, or if you prefer to operate the faucet with a single handle or two.
You can also choose between a pull-out or pull-down spout for all-in-one functionality or a ceiling-mount faucet to keep the countertop clear.
Add Tech to your Kitchen
A basic faucet works, but tech such as voice control brings cleanliness to your daily life.
