Pull-down and pullout kitchen faucets

[Sofia C]

I'm planning for a long-awaited kitchen faucet changeout in my kitchen. I want a pull-down type with a multifunctional spray head.

Before I get locked into one type, can you go over some different spray head feature options that I might be able to include?

Many pull-down and pullout kitchen faucets do have different spray head features to choose from. See what you want to include and hopefully you'll be able to find a faucet that meets your local codes and includes at least one or two of the features you like.

Here's some spray head options:

- Pause. This feature quickly stops and starts the flow of water without turning off the faucet handle.

- Ring pattern. This circular spray pattern is great for everyday cleaning and rinsing.

- Soft spray. Wider, lighter and softer spray for gentle washing.

- Sweep spray. Creates a thin, forceful blade of water, great for sink washdown.

- "Boost" technology. This feature temporarily increases water flow with just a push of a button. You'll have a blast using boost.
