Faucets may be the most common stuff in our life. What surprises can we get from them? After introducing several creative faucets, this time I’ll show you some top faucets — out now or coming soon – which can make your kitchen look great and your prep and cleanup a lot easier.

Dramatic Pull-Out Faucet

Pull-out faucets(below on the left) are popular for their function, and they are added matte black finishes that accent dark granite or quartz countertops. The sleek silhouette includes single-handle control of temperature and three flow patterns: stream, rinse, and veggie spray — plus, a handy pause button.

Bridge-Style Faucet

A bridge-style faucet(above on the right) suits period interiors and architecture as well as modern country kitchens. Stepped rosettes surround the lever handles, and the rolling spout is both elegant and ergonomic.

Two-Handle Faucet

Can’t choose between classic or contemporary? Facetlike ridges on the spout and lever handles modernize the traditional styling of the Abigail faucet from Gerber Plumbing Fixtures. With sprayer, the faucet installs on 8-inch centers. It features solid-cast-brass construction and reliable ceramic cartridges.

Magnetic Pull-Down Faucet

Like the closures found on totes and personal electronics cases, a magnetic mechanism pulls the spray head back to docked position, so you don’t need to twist and lock it into place. Just click a button to switch from stream to spray.

Contemporary Pull-Out Faucet

Kohler’s brand-new Evoke faucet presents a fresh, substantial look that’s contemporary but not sterile. A generous 9-inch-tall spout clears large pots and swivels 360 degrees. At spout’s end, the streamlined pull-out head offers spray, aerate, and pause functions. A minimalist single-lever control helps declutter the sink.

Retro style shines in this curvy faucet and sprayer accessory from Kindred. You can order the single-hole faucet with a matching escutcheon to cover existing plumbing holes.

Prep Sink Sprayer

You can use this handy HiRise independent sidespray with a primary faucet or on its own at a prep sink. The spray is angled when at rest in its holder, so it even works hands-free to rinse dishes. Push “pause” to go outside the sink for other tasks.

Blanco America’s modern approach to classic styling includes the BlancoBistro lever-control bar faucet, designed to coordinate with the company’s BlancoTerra kitchen faucets. This model’s solid-brass body and ceramic disc cartridge deliver cold water only.

Touchless Faucet

Touchless faucets use electronic sensors to start and stop the water’s flow. It is no longer news to see them in airports and other public spaces. And they’re also stepping into residential and baths. If you’ve got young kids, these faucets will be perfect.
