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!

    Men who are rude to waiters and service people are the biggest turnoffs. Oh and if they are mean to their mothers, that is a turnoff as well.

    If you are not faithful/have integrity in the little things you probably won’t be faithful/have integrity in the big things. Thats huge for me. Plus how you treat your waiters and waitresses or anyone that serves you, shows you alot about a person.

    I can’t stand when people don’t understand my sense of humor. It’s dry, and a bit on the biting side. Some people don’t get when I’m trying to be funny, and it just irritates the crud out of me.

    A major turn off for me is a man who can’t allow a woman to be strong. I want to be treated as a woman, not an invalid. I’m not insulting your manliness if I grab a power tool. On the flip side, a man who is too manly to do dishes is just as much of a turn off.

    I have been dying for a new faucet, and have essentially given up doing the dishes until we can get one. As such I don’t think I can really name any turn offs, my boyfriend does all the dishes so I never have to deal with our ridiculously short and temperamental faucet. This would certainly be a godsend in our house.

    Biggest turn-off is over confidence. A know-it-all drives me crazy. The right amount of confidence however is a huge turn on.

    A big turn off? No ambition or passion. I can’t stand apathy. I don’t care what you’re passionate about – cars, comics, music, world vision – I just want to know there is something.
