Choosing a kitchen sink faucet is an important part of the process of remodeling or designing a kitchen. However, with so many different kitchen faucet options including installation type, functionality and design, the idea can be overwhelming. One key factor when choosing a kitchen sink faucet is the type of spray hose. At the YUSON, we aim to make it easier for our customers to choose a kitchen sink faucet that works best for their perfect kitchen.
Pull out faucets feature a spray head that can be pulled directly out of the faucet body. The spray heads usually come with a secondary spray function that is more powerful or concentrated for rinsing purposes. Pull out faucets can be used with undermount or top mounted kitchen sinks.
Pros: work great in small sinks or small kitchens, usually feature 180-degree or 360-degree swivel spouts, usually point into the center of the sink when stationary
Cons: usually low-arcing and harder to fill pots or do dishes, can be awkward to use, limited in number of unique designs
