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!

    I just discovered our faucet is on its way out so this is a very timely contest!
    A turn off for me seems to be a popular one, bad breath.

    Thanks for another great giveaway!

    OMG what an amazing giveaway! We just bought a house that needs a new faucet so bad, but we just can’t afford it right now.

    One of my biggest turnoffs is gross teeth. I had braces for years and really apprecitate all the pain and hardwork into having nice straight teeth :)

    Shaving over the sink and not cleaning that little space between the faucet and the back of the sink/wall. You have to break out a q-tip to get in that nook!

    I absolutely abhor arrogance. Bad breath is a close second, but if you’re too arrogant I probably wouldn’t get close enough to notice your breath.

    “TOUCH MET” – I’d have to say doing chores on “his time”. Which is usually -days- after when I would like to see a chore done.

    BUT, I have learned to “let go”….

    “TOUCH ME”…please? We desperately need a new faucet.

    Biggest turn off: upper man thigh. Sorry, I know they can’t help it, but white hairy legs, are just not ok!

    P.s. Am I the only one with the song, “touch me…all night long” in my head?

    Turn offs: smoking and having no regard for others… I guess that would also be selfishness?
