In today’s market of kitchen faucets, there are a vast variety of styles to choose from. Each one of these unique styles offers its own set of pros and cons. Homeowners looking to upgrade their kitchen faucet will need to think through the specific functionality and design they seek as they browse the variety of faucets available.
One stunning choice for a kitchen faucet is a bridge faucet. These elevated faucets offer a vintage style to the space. Kingston Brass carries a variety of bridge faucets in different finishes featuring different handles and designs.
For the homeowner considering a bridge faucet, the following set of pros and cons should be considered.
The Pros
Elegant Style
One of the top reasons a bridge faucet is chosen is because of its elegant design. A bridge faucet features gorgeous lines and a unique style. The two faucet handles are mounted above the sink on a bridge-like fixture with the spout rising above the entire piece. With its elegance, a bridge faucet is a good fit for a kitchen that features a classic or vintage design.
Unique Handle Options
While all bridge faucets feature the same notable bridge design, they are equipped with a variety of handle options. Bridge faucets often feature beautiful antique style knobs, offering an added flair of style to the room.
Elevated Design
With their bridge design, these faucets feature an elevated look. Rising above the sink, rather than resting snugly against the sink’s edge, the faucet offers a sophisticated touch to the kitchen.
The Cons
Space Constraints
Bridge faucets are undoubtedly a gorgeous stylistic piece. However, they are not ideal for kitchens with limited space. Due to the elevated design of a bridge faucet, it can cause the area to become cramped if there is not ample space between the sink and overhanging cabinets. For this reason, homeowners should always measure overhead space prior to purchase.
Notable Style
While a bridge faucet’s notable style is what makes it treasured by many, it is also important for homeowners to consider how it will fit into the rest of the room’s design. A bridge faucet might not make a great fit for a super sleek and modernistic kitchen. It is important to think about the room’s overall design before investing in this notable faucet style.
