Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Easily Turned On

Fab Freebie: Easily Turned On

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

So you saw me install this puppy earlier today, and just as we promised we’re back to give you a shot at winning one of your own. The Delta Pilar kitchen faucet with Touch 2O Technology is pretty much any DIY-lover or enthusiastic chef’s best friend because, just as the commercial below demonstrates, you can wash paint, dirt, eggs, chicken goo or any other home-improvement or cooking related mess off of your hands without ever getting it on your purdy fixture.

We’ve actually had ours installed for a week now and I’ve found it extremely helpful even when doing simple tasks like the dishes (yes, I’m usually in charge of the dishes, but Sherry vacuums so it’s pretty fair around here). Rather than having to reach over to turn the handle on and off, I can interrupt the water by just quickly tapping the spout anywhere, and the technology’s even smart enough to know when you’re gripping the faucet to move it (as we do from basin to basin in our double sink) so it doesn’t interpret that maneuver as an on/off trigger. Consider us impressed.

For more info about how this baby works and how we got it installed, check out this morning’s post (and don’t forget to read through the comments where we address pretty much every detail that you can think of). And if you’re dying to get your grubby mitts on one of them, here’s how:

  • PRIZE: A Delta Pilar Pull-Down faucet with Touch 2O Technology in the finish of your choice (chrome or stainless)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “TOUCH ME” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …spill the beans about some of your personal turn offs when it comes to the opposite sex. Poor hygiene? Too full of themselves? Obsessed with his or her chihuahua? Spill it –  but let’s try to keep things PG-ish if we can.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, February 10th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in North America
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    TOUCH ME
    A few years ago I went on a first date with a guy I met downtown. . . seconds after he finished eating his meal he began to pick his teeth! I understand if you have something in your teeth and the need to pick at it but def. a turn off on a first date.

    Oh, I can honestly say that things that would normally bother me about the opposite sex, don’t bother me at all with my husband! Ha ha.

    Okay, maybe the techie/stock market talk is a little annoying, but I’ll never tell!

    I can’t stand it when guys think they are “multi-taskers”…yeah right, don’t even go there!!! My husband whined this morning about carrying the baby downstairs because it was going to make him late for work. Meanwhile, I’m walking down the stairs behind him balancing a glass of water, empty bottle, cordless phone and a stack of laundry ON a box of diapers! AND I put everything where it was supposed to be before he even got the baby in the high chair. Yeah, he’s a great multi-tasker….

    I loathe it when men are self-centered and arrogant. Poor listening skills usually apply to the aforementioned male, as well. On bad dates, I often feel like saying, “Why ask me a question if you’re not interested in hearing the answer?” Ha. Wake up, dudes!

    I’d have to say the guys that wear their shirts 1/2 way open is pretty ridiculous. Especially if they wax their chests and make it a living to go to the gym and ‘look good’. Leave it to the ladies to do the primping, and focus more on learning how to install a new sink faucet! ;)

    Turn off: Being overly critical of people you don’t know. We don’t know their situation, so why criticize someone for their screaming baby that they might have no control over and other things like that. Don’t be so quick to judge!

    “TOUCH ME” I think the biggest turn off is a man who is not a gentleman. Doesn’t hold the door open, doesn’t let the girl order first, etc. I like chivalry!
