Water-Saving Pull-Out/Pull-Down
Moen’s Dorsey Eco-Performance faucet flows green, allowing you to save water by easily switching between three water-flow settings. When you’re washing dishes or preparing food and need a constant but not necessarily fast water flow, choose the eco-performance or aerated spray modes at 1.75 gallons per minute — a 32 percent water savings. But for tasks that require a set amount of water, such as filling a pot or pitcher, press the button and bring the flow back up to the standard 2.2 gpm rate. The affordable Dorsey comes in both a single-hole installation to fit solid-surface countertops, with a coordinating soap/lotion dispenser; or with a cover plate for a three- or four-hole sink application. The traditional design features a single-handle pullout and a wand includes a fiber hose with a ball joint for quiet operation and easier maneuverability. Moen’s patented Hydrolock ® installation system snaps the faucet and supply lines together with a telltale click.
Price: Chrome, $158, LifeShine Classic Stainless, $188
Available at: Lowe’s

Eco-Performance Pull-Down
Like Moen’s other new Eco-Performance faucets, the Anabelle allows you to switch between two reduced flow rates, aerated spray and eco-performance, of 1.75 gallons per minute or when needed to revert to the standard 2.2 gpm rate for filling a pot or pitcher. The Anabelle is available in Moen’s new Mediterranean Bronze finish for a classic old world look. The Anabelle features a transitional, high-arc pull-down spout and a distinctive side-mount single handle to elegantly accent any kitchen sink. The pull-out/pull-down wand has a ball joint at the end for quiet operation and easier maneuvering.
Installation is easy with Moen’s Hydrolock ® installation system, which snaps the faucet and supply lines together with a distinctive click— so you know it’s securely installed.

Tap-Stopping Flow
Delta’s Pilar® kitchen faucet features three of Delta’s innovative technologies in one product. For easy use even with messy hands, the Touch20 Technology allows you to start and stop the water flow with just a simple tap anywhere on the spout or handle. No more messy faucet handles or water left running because your hands were too full to manipulate the faucet handle. The Pilar uses a magnetic docking system that incorporates a two-function spray head that switches from stream to spray with just a click of a diverter button. Finally, Delta’s new Diamond ™ Seal Technology eliminates leaks and drips and lasts up to 10 times longer than the industry standard.
Good news: the Diamond Seal technology is less hassle to install. All the parts needed for installation are right in the box. The one-piece Innoflex integrated supply lines can be connected directly to hot and clod shut-off valves. No intermediate riser connections needed. A magnetic closure engages the spray head to its docked position keeping the faucet looking neat and orderly.
Price: Chrome, $495 and Brilliance stainless, $547.
