Reno-Giveaway #4: Delta Faucet

By

Note: The following giveaway is open to Canadians only.

For those who have been following my Reno-cation, it may have crossed your mind, “What about the kitchen?” Truth is, we don’t really need an upgrade, because it’s pretty awesome as is. However, we did require a) a back splash, which is still in the works, and b) a new showpiece kitchen faucet.

BEFORE

See that sorry looking faucet? What can I say – builder’s specialty. We’ve made do with it for almost four years now, but it’s constantly a sore spot with my husband, who believes a gorgeous island deserves a stunning showpiece faucet. And that’s where my good friends at Delta Faucet come in.

Introducing the new Addison Single Handle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet Featuring Touch2O Technology. A long title for a pretty simple concept: the most kick a** kitchen faucet ever.

Features: 

– Design inspired by the fragile scallops of a sea shell
– Graceful curves provide a delicate beauty that adds a romantic touch to the kitchen
– Multi-flow temporarily increases flow rate to 1.75 gpm
– Single-handle design for quick and easy water control
– High-arc spout swivels 360° for complete sink access
– Pull-down spray wand features a 62 in. hose for a 20 in. reach to clean the bottom of pots
– MagnaTite docking keeps the spray wand secure

I am pleased to say that I completed 90% of the installation of this faucet myself; after reading through the instructions and putting the parts together, I only needed a friend’s help to connect to the pipes under the sink.

And now, I can’t believe how my kitchen has come alive! It is truly a “showpiece” – it wouldn’t be a stretch to consider the faucet a piece of art. To tell the truth, for about two weeks after it was installed, I would catch myself just staring at the clean, fluid lines with unconcealed admiration. It is THAT gorgeous. We chose the Chrome finish, but it is also available in Stainless Steel and Venetian Bronze.

So just what is Touch2O Technology? Simply put, Touch2O technology allows water to be turned on and off with just a touch anywhere along the spout or handle. You’ll save time (just keep the faucet at your perfect temperature), you’ll save money (no more running taps! It’s so simply to turn on/off, you’ll make it a habit to do so), and you’ll reduce the amount of germs and bacteria you’re exposed to, especially those that linger on faucet handles.

AFTER

I’d like to share with y’all my new and improved island… with the faucet in action!
