Semi-pro faucet mixes style, performance By Ed Del Grande
Tribune News Service
Q: I’m a pretty serious home chef and would like to upgrade my current kitchen faucet. I’m looking for a heavy-duty work faucet, but I don’t want a commercial-looking faucet in my nice kitchen. Can you suggest the type of kitchen faucet I should search for? — Jackie, New York A: I recommend you check out a semi-professional kitchen faucet. These faucets are great for serious home chefs because they combine performance and style.

Semi-professional faucets are great for serious home chefs because they combine performance and style. Most semi-professional faucets have arched spring-loaded pull-down spray heads, great for a multitude of food prep and cleaning tasks. The special faucet head also may feature different spray settings that you can use for
things like washing fruits/ veggies, filling pots and power cleaning pans. Other features can include single-handle operation and magnetic docking to securely lock the spray head in place when not in the pull-down mode. Bottom line: If you consider yourself a semi-pro chef, installing a semi-pro kitchen faucet can be the way to go.
