10 Easy Pieces: Pull-Down Sprayer Faucets

February 15, 2017

At Remodelista, we’re divided over the appeal of a pull-down sprayer faucet. Some of us prefer the gadget-less look of a steady-flow faucet, others (like me) wouldn’t know how to clean a sink without one.

No matter which camp you’re in, it’s true that a faucet with a pull-down spray has more moving parts to break—making it all the more important to do your homework before you buy. Here are 10 pull-down sprayer kitchen faucets about which we’ve heard good things.
