Types of Kitchen Sink Faucets

To help with the selection process, we've listed the pros and cons of each kitchen sink faucet, with information on today's trends and popular options from leading manufacturers.

Side spray

For most of the history of the modern kitchen sink faucet, the side spray was the only spray option offered to the homeowner or designer. Kitchen sink faucets are usually mounted on a deck that covers three separate holes in the top of the sink, usually with a fourth hole on the right for the side spray.

Pros: Traditional and aesthetically pleasing, works with all types of faucets, may need to fill extra holes in the sink or countertop

Cons: Extra hole in the countertop, the spray is not affected by temperature, can be difficult to use, less pressure than built-in spray

Pull out kitchen faucet

The spout of a pull-out faucet can be pulled directly from the body of the faucet. Spray heads usually have a secondary spray that is more powerful or focused for rinsing purposes. Pull-out faucets can be used with undermount or above-mount kitchen sinks.

Cons: Usually low arc, harder to fill pots or wash dishes, awkward to use, the limited number of unique designs

Pull—down kitchen faucet

Pull-down faucets are a major trend in kitchen design right now. Known for their dramatic high arc and sleek design, pull-down faucets are available in countless designs and finishes. Like pull-out faucets, pull-out faucets typically have one or more spray modes, depending on the function the user seeks.

Pros: Most popular, can make a design statement in the kitchen, widely available in many different styles and finishes, high arc allows for more workspace, often incorporates the latest technology and innovations

Cons: May be too tall for some kitchens, may create an extra splash in shallower kitchen sinks
