Spout It Out

This post is about faucets. :-) I got a little creative with that title.

Much like many home projects, our kitchen is a work in progress. When we moved in, we transformed our totally 90s cabinets into a brighter and more modern look with paint and new hardware. We replaced the floors too - from a beat-up light engineered wood to a medium brown real wood. These changes alone made a huge difference.
 
Kitchen before. Hello oak wood.

Sorry for the dark pics - these are from my iphone!

Ahh so much better. Even with the old appliances.
Phase 2 of the kitchen involves a new sink and faucet. Our shallow, grody white sink is out. As is its best pal - a leaky, dirty, cracked faucet. Thanks to my sister's wonderful BF, we have a new, shiny, deep stainless steel sink to install! We are trying to decide on a faucet. We want something that
  1. Fits our modern taste
  2. Is sleek with clean lines
  3. Will last - we are looking at quality brands since the sink gets the most use out of anything in your entire kitchen
We've narrowed it down to three options. Which do you like best? Have you owned any of these brands?

Kohler Simplice

Delta Trinsic

Moen Reflex
 
Phase 3 will be new appliances (praise stainless steel!), paint, under cabinet lighting and a tiled backsplash which we'll attempt to DIY!
