The Pursuit Model LK2500CR flexible-spout laundry/utility faucet from Elkay Mfg. Co. is constructed with brass materials to ensure a long life and a chrome finish to match most decors. It has a ceramic disc valve for maintenance-free use and deck mounting for easy countertop installation. Its forward-only, single-lever handle is easy to use and eliminates bumping into the backsplash. The 14 3/8-inch-high, flexible arc spout swivels 360 degrees for complete sink access, and the dual-function spray head offers either an aerated or spray flow with a simple end-spout turn. Its low flow reduces water use, and it can be paired with an optional soap dispenser and an air gap to ensure that, in the event of a stopped-up sink drain, water is not siphoned back into a reverse osmosis system. 630/572-3192; www.elkay.com.
