First Adjustable Height Standard Kitchen Faucet Available at Retail, Pfister’s Elevate EXT Meets Every Kitchen Need without Sacrificing Style

Lake Forest, California (February 2011) -  Americans value freedom of personalization, the ability to customize one’s surroundings to best meet needs and reflect personal style. Understanding this innate desire, Pfister™ today introduced the innovative Elevate™ EXT Pull-down Kitchen Faucet with adjustable height settings. The first and only adjustable height standard kitchen faucet currently available at retail, Elevate EXT allows homeowners the freedom to customize the faucet to fit their needs at any given moment – whether it’s filling a tall pot or minimizing the height to provide an unobstructed bay window view. The spout has three height settings, from eight inches, for a compact look with minimal splashing, to 11 inches for washing large pots and allowing extra clearance. 

Not only is Elevate EXT’s height adjustable, but the spout swivels a full 360 degrees for maximum maneuverability and positioning. In addition, it features an ergonomic dual function spray head with spray and stream modes, and an extra-long 70 inch pull-out hose that doesn’t leave a spot of the sink untouched. The overall design is versatile enough to coordinate nicely with both contemporary and traditional kitchens. 

“The trend toward customization in every aspect of American life, from cell phones to cars, is undeniable,” said Bethany York, group product manager, Retail Kitchen, Pfister. “We wanted to extend the ability for customization into the kitchen, where homeowners had never before been provided the option of adjusting faucet height off the shelf. While focusing on functionality, we never lost sight of style, and the result is a beautiful faucet designed to complement virtually any home.”

Elevate EXT from Pfister is available in Stainless Steel in a one-, two-, three-, or four-hole configuration. It can be installed with or without a deckplate and includes a top-filling matching soap dispenser for added convenience. The Elevate EXT from Pfister is available exclusively at Lowe’s Home Improvement stores for the suggested retail price of $198. Product pricing varies by region and store location.
