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!

    Biggest Turn Off in Men: Mine is so messy, we’ll move into our new house after our June wedding, but I’m worried about the clutter and upkeep. Really, though, I’m happily renovating and decorating what will be our first place together! I love, love the design of that faucet and we really need a new one in our sad kitchen. Please, please…

    Turn off: Guys that have given up on themselves, especially if they are young. Examples: “I won’t exercise because obesity runs in my family so I am going to be fat anyways” or “I won’t pursue an MBA because I was told in elementary school that I was not good in math” or “my father told me that I am destined to have bad teeth, so I brush just once a day”. Really? What a waste of a life!

    Touch me! OMG I’m drooling over just being in the running for this one. I never win anything…but yet I can’t stop picturing this faucet in my kitchen!

    I got pretty grossed out when I found out my boyfriend clipped his toenails in the living room. I mean, come on, they invented bathrooms so you can do that stuff in private.

    My turn off would have to be guys that think they are too good for anyone. News Flash!! Most women don’t want to waste their time with them if they are going to act that way.

    Touch me! My biggest turn-off is one that I can’t really complain about (but I will): my husband cooks ALL the time, which is awesome, but he isn’t very clean when he cooks. So I spend a lot of time following him around with Method wipes cleaning up the range, counter, floor, etc.. Guess I should just be grateful that he’s making me dinner!

    Ohh, la-la! I’d love to have that sleek mama in my kitchen as opposed to the leaking, nasty, old one that is there! Turn-off: Hmmm, after 12 years of marriage, I still haven’t taught my husband how to walk softly in the morning or how to turn door handles to open/close quietly. Maybe he’ll have it down by out 20th!
