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 MEEEEEEEEE!! Boy you guys sure get the comments log going on the cool giveaway stuff. I guess I’m included in that, seeing as I hardly ever comment. But this one is just TOO COOL to not try for.
    Oh yeah, Biggest turn off in the opposite sex? General air of liking themselves a weeee too much; ORANGE tan, too much cologne, too cool for school sun glasses with the beemer or some such other “making up for ahem, THINGs” car, obvi goes to gym and tanning salon too often…etc. Seriously, GET OVER YOURSELF. Oh yeah, esp guys who get plastic surgery and/or implants. ewwy.

    TOUCH ME! I will never date a man that doesn’t have manners. “Pleases” and “thank yous” (or lack thereof) say a lot about a man’s character without having to know him all that well.

    TOUCH ME! I don’t like to be around people who think that they are god’s gift in the looks department. A beautiful woman is much less attractive with her nose up in the air.*Side note* Our faucet just broke and we can’t afford a new one right now since I recently lost my job so this would be such a blessing! Thanks for the chance guys!

    Biggest turnoff… really strong cologne on guys. A little whiff of aftershave is nice, though. :)

    And oh… I just got the “turnoff” pun… I was trying to figure out how these two things were related… :)
