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…just don’t let me hear you clip your nails! When I was pregnant, the person in the cube next to me would clip their nails and it made me SICK – quite literally. I can’t stand nail clipping to this day…5 years later :)

    I can’t stand when people clip their nails. I can handle it in the privacy of your own home (behind the closed bathroom door), but I cannot stand when people do it in their cubes at work. Gross!

    touch me…it’s ironic that this is your giveaway. b/c my husband is a painter and it is truly one of my pet peeves that he will come in from work and wash his hands and get paint splatter all over the faucet and sink. he is usually good about washing up outside, but if it is too cold out or if the project happens to be in our house (which it rarely is b/c he paints for a living and doesn’t want to do it at home too) the sink will be a mess!

    One turn off would be talking too much and never letting me get a word in edgewise! I mean, let a girl speak! I only have this problem with my fiancé when it comes to him talking about hockey…then we have some problems. I guess I’ve just learned to love his passion for this! ;)

    Touch Me! just moved into a new house and the current faucet doesn’t even swivel! i think the previous owner painted it shut! it’s on the regular sink side and not the disposal side, so at least i have the pull out faucet to shoot water over to the other side. this touch faucet would come in handy!
    turnoff that bugs me the most, a guy that talks about money all the time…how much he has, how much he’s going to get, how he’s going to get it….blah blah blah

    My annoyance…Dishes! My husband leaves dishes EVERYWHERE. It drives me crazy! Even when his dishes make it back to the sink he just sets them in there and doesn’t rinse them. Then they get all crusty by the time I go to clean them.
