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!

    Turn off – attitude. I’m always amazed at how people’s looks are either enhanced or ruined when they open their mouths.

    I’m married to a wonderful man who is the perfect match for me, but thinking back, there are a lot of things about the opposite sex that were definite turnoffs:

    1. Men who are not kind. I appreciate men who demonstrate kindness (not to be confused with chivalry – I can open my own doors, or even open a door for you!)
    2. Smokers/heavy drinkers. Enough said.
    3. Men who are not a good mental match for me – if you have a genuine interest in sports, great. If all you ever talk about is sports, you’re boring. There’s a difference.
    4. Men who cannot figure out how to dress properly for the occassion. This drives me bonkers. For example, weddings = button down dress shirt and khakis at a minimum. An obsession with “comfort” only makes you look lazy. Get a nice outfit, save it for the proper occassions, wear it when necessary.

    I’m lucky I met my husband when I did. I don’t miss dating at all :)

    My turn-offs used to be guys that were a bit hairier. That was when I dated guys that weren’t good for me. Now I have a wonderfully hairy boyfriend/fiance of four years.

    New turn-offs – conceited, bad teeth/breath, close-minded.

    Awesome giveaway! What an extremely cool and super-useful faucet. Oh, technology.

    Hm, turn-off is leaving his laundry scattered throughout the house. C’mon, it’s not that hard to just dump it in the hamper. But I still love him, despite his lack of laundry skills. :)

    Turn offs…I’d have to say poor hygiene and egocentrism. It’s just not attractive to be overly indulgent–or plain dirty. Take a bath and bring your ego back down to earth and then we can talk!

    TOUCH ME….insecurity. Having been married for 6 years, I figured out my husband’s idiosyncrasies long ago, but went out with a friend for drinks a few months ago. A guy that she was considering dating appeared after we had been there for about an hour. I have never met a guy that needed more reassurance. He asked me if I thought he was attractive, totally a weird question to ask an “old married woman” who he had only been introduced to a few minutes before!
