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!

    When men “pass gas” and laugh, cause they want to get away with it like it is funny. It is not funny. Or when they leave wrappers out from making food, like the woman around wants to pick it up for them later.

    Since I met my now husband at 17 it has been awhile since I even though about this, but I would have to say guys that lack self-confidence. However, too much od it is a turn off as well!

    I hate it that my husband and I almost always have differing views on what home improvement project comes next. I tend to lean toward things you can SEE (ie: floors, windows, decorative items, major bathroom remodel) while he tends to lean toward that other un-important stuff (ie: guttering, electrical work, the basement). =) Ok, ok, so that stuff’s important too…but still…. =) Thanks for the chance to win!

    My pet peeve is when men (and women do this too!) do not appreciate what they have and take their significant other for granted. There should be a balance between give and take in a relationship and it should not be one side gives and gives while the other takes! unfortunatly I think it happens a lot.

    My biggest turn off is when a guy thinks he is infallible and acts overly confident. Confidence is great, but not when you think every word that comes out of your mouth is the ONLY truth out there. I have to say that I secretly love when guys like that get proven wrong :)
