Best Pull Down Kitchen Faucets

The WEWE Single Handle A1001L offers a simple design and lots of control over the way you wash your dishes. The multifunctional outlet makes it easy to momentarily stop water and move the faucet to the desired location. There’s also a specific focus on easy installation. With the WEWE Single Handle, almost everything is set up right out of the box. If you need to cover excess mounting holes, the included escutcheon has you covered.

And while the price is certainly low enough to make most budget-seekers happy, we do wish the construction was entirely stainless steel as opposed to the mix with hard plastics. Likewise, there are no included extras like a soap dispenser or spray nozzle. Still, the WEWE Single Handle succeeds as a product that’s built to last at a price that’s sure to appease most.

For anyone who is waiting for a touch faucet, this model from Delta certainly checks off all the boxes for a great kitchen nozzle. The Delta Trinsic 9159-AR-DST utilizes 6 AA batteries (or plugs into a wall outlet) to power the touch functionality feature. By pressing any amount of skin to the spout, you can turn the water on. No mess, and no dirty sink handles.

Also of note is the LED indicator functionality, which will glow blue, purple, or red to indicate the temperature of the water. This makes it easy to avoid unhappy accidents and scalding water. Overall, we’re struggling to come up with any serious drawbacks to this faucet that doesn’t involve the price. It isn’t cheap, but provided it falls near your price point, you should be satisfied in purchasing this Delta faucet.

Those who want a focus on design and elegance without sacrificing functionality will be very pleased with the Pfister Hanover F5314HNY. This faucet model uses a classic 3-hole design that separates the hot and cold handles to facilitating finding a specific temperature. Likewise, the included soap dispenser means that you can replace every sink fixture to end up with a completely new sink look after installation.

We also really appreciate the unique water volume control, which gives greater leverage to homeowners and will prevent splashes. However, with no included deck plates of any kind, this faucet will only work for those with 3 or 4 mounting holes. While we would have preferred a larger faucet overall, the Pfister Hanover F5314HNY is going to fit in perfectly with rustic to modern homes and comes in at a price that won’t break the bank.

The Delta Pivotal 9193T-KS-DST is Delta’s second faucet of three on our list and focuses on high-end design and premium build quality. The first thing you’ll notice is its angular design, which makes this faucet pop out from others in a modern kitchen setting. Like the Delta Trinsic, this Delta Pivotal faucet includes a magnetic docking system for the sprayer and an LED indicator to keep you from burning your hands.

A soap dispenser is offered from the company but currently is not included with the faucet itself. We would have preferred a similarly angular deck plate to go alongside this faucet, as well a more affordable price, but with four colors to choose from, there’s no reason this faucet can’t be a perfect fit for your modern space.

The Moen Arbor 7594ESRS operates on touch-based operation. Utilizing two sensors, the water can be turned on without ever making contact with the faucet itself. The hose length on this faucet is also quite long, so you should have no issue extending this hose sprayer to just about anything in the kitchen. In addition, the single-hole design also comes with a deck plate for installation on sinks up to 3 holes.

While the price for this faucet is reasonable, we would have appreciated a little more modernity in Moen Arbor’s design. Still, if touchless operation is up your alley, and you’re working with a single or 3-hole design, then the Moen Arbor 759ESRS might be right for you.

The third and final Delta faucet on our list, the Delta Kate 16970-SSSD-DST, manages to outperform much of the affordable faucet market with a unique design and handy features. You only need two holes to mount this Delta model, but it’s really designed for three: it offers a hole for the spout, the handle, and the dedicated soap dispenser, respectively. For anyone who is hoping for a soap dispenser, this faucet may be for you.

The Delta Kate faucet also offers a magnetic sprayer, which is harder to find at this price point. This will prevent the pull-down faucet from struggling to retract over time. And while we would have greatly preferred touch functionality on this faucet, the rest of the offerings speak for themselves. We think this Delta faucet is a good choice for a unique design that all but guarantees a dedicated soap dispenser for the home.

Anyone who appreciated the industrial aesthetic of our Kraus faucet pick might be interested in this Avola Single Handle 43239-100089, which uses an exposed design that’s reminiscent of the industrial stylings of a commercial kitchen. The included multifunctional sprayer, however, offers far more control over the water than a kitchen in a restaurant ever would.

Also included is a variable hose length design that’s going to appease many. The installation of a longer hose underneath should grant a further reach on the surface. Overall, for the cost, this is one of the best-built products on our list. The lack of deck plate makes sense from a design aspect, but homeowners with a 3-holed sink may be frustrated at the choice. Likewise, we would have appreciated further reach from the gooseneck spout. Nevertheless, we highly recommend the Avola Single Handle 43239-100089 as a more affordable alternative to the Kraus faucet.

Our final pull-down faucet pick. the Peppermint Black Single PM-16Y,  is technically a pull-out faucet, but the features and design fit are far better with most pull-down designs. This faucet uses a matte black design that stands out almost more than any other faucet on our list. We greatly appreciate the built-in escutcheon as well, which will prevent a headache for homeowners who didn’t notice the single-hole functionality.

For the price, this is one of the most elegant faucets on our list, and with just two lines to connect, it is simultaneously one of our most simplistic. While the pull-out design is somewhat frustrating at times, we still have to hand it to Peppermint for giving a full range of motion to the spout to counter this problem. We highly recommend the Peppermint Black Single PM-16Y for its ease of use, elegant design, and water efficiency.
