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!

    Having lived in places where smoking is so rare for so long, I can not stand it when someone has that “smoker smell.” Makes me walk in the other direction.

    I love it! I hate getting germs on the handle and then having to use my clean hands to turn it off. This is genius and we need them for bathrooms too.

    Not helping around the house. I happened to marry an amazing guy who is always willing to help out and who does a good job of cleaning up after himself. Although I know friends’ husbands have other good qualities, I’m always glad about how helpful my hubby is when I see their hubbies being less than helpful.

    Touch me! (I have a huge phobia about salmonella and this would save me some hard work.)

    His burping. He sounds like a bullfrog and even does it when he’s not eating or drinking anything! How is that possible? Is he swallowing air?! What’s worse is that our 2 year-old is already starting it. Ugh. :)

    It certainly isn’t the end of the world, but still a pet peeve. My significant other forgets (?) to make the bed.

    TOUCH ME!!! My biggest pet peeve is when my fiance shaves and i find traces of it in the sink! We are revamping our kitchen right now and this would make the perfect addition to our new countertops!

    I love him, but a massive pet peeve of mine is when my husband leaves the dirty dishes on the counter instead of just putting them in the dishwasher!

    A guy that is too full of himself is a major turn off. I dated a guy like that once and needless to say it didn’t last very long.

    Turn off: My husband likes to come to bed late and then claim it’s because MY clock has a different time :)

    TOUCH ME! This faucet is amazing!

    My turn off is poor manners at the dinner table – chewing with their mouth open, texting or talking on the phone during the meal, being rude to waiters, etc. I hate that!
