A Pull-Out Bathroom Faucet for a ‘New Age Mama’

Posted by: | Comments Comments Off

One thing that the Professor loves to see in a product, whether it’s a toilet or a faucet or a computer, is a convenient, multi-purpose feature that makes life easier for a wide variety of people in a wide variety of ways. And if that product also helps to protect the environment in some way, all the better.

Recently the Professor found a kindred spirit in Laura DeLuca, the writer behind the blog New Age Mama. Laura reviewed the WaterSense-certified OutReach bathroom faucet for her blog and clearly shares the Professor’s appreciation for the faucet’s innovative design. She was also kind enough to take a moment to answer a few questions about her blog and how the OutReach fits into her life as a ‘new age mama.’

1. Why did you start your blog, and what is your favorite thing about blogging?

I started my blog while I was on bed rest during my last pregnancy and needed something to do. I love all the interesting people I’ve met and all the amazing products that I’ve been one of the first to try out.

I only review products that I know my family will actually be able to use on a regular basis so that I can give it a fair and honest review.

3. Did anything surprise you about the OutReach faucet?

I was surprised at how quickly my husband was able to install it.

4. How does the OutReach faucet help make your life as a mother easier?

I can now give my baby a bath in the bathroom sink and rinse her off with no problems. It’s much easier than having to bend down in the bathtub or having to carry all the bath stuff down to the kitchen.

5. Anything else you’d like to share?

Working with American Standard was a pleasure. Everyone was very kind and courteous and stayed on top of things.

This post is the second in a series of the Professor’s interviews with bloggers who have reviewed the OutReach bathroom faucet. The Professor previously interviewed Deborah Sloan of Baba’s Farm Life.

A little known fact about Professor Toilet is a secret passion for all things plumbing, especially smart faucets like the innovative OutReach bathroom faucet that has a convenient 24-inch pull-out hose. How great is this faucet? Just ask blogger Deborah Sloan, who recently reviewed the OutReach for her blog Baba’s Farm Life, which features product reviews, contests, and reflections on her life in a newly-restored, 18th century stone farm house.

The Professor was pleased to have a chance to chat with Deborah about faucets and her farm life in general.

1. Why did you start your blog, and what is your favorite thing about blogging?

I got started blogging when my daughter told me it would give me something to do. Of course this was before we bought our stone house that we are remodeling. I guess she thought I didn’t have anything to occupy my time before then. My favorite thing about blogging and the blogging community is all the fabulous people I meet! Some in person and most just with notes back and forth online, but truly wonderful people.

2. How do you decide what to write about on your site?

My daughter suggested to write what I know about so it began with our country family life, but then when we bought the Stone House and it needed so much work that was added to the mix along with product reviews, and it’s grown so much.

3. What is your favorite use for the pull-out sprayer that you’ve discovered so far?

Oh my goodness, I love the OutReach faucet for quick clean ups! Hubby comes in the door and the faucet is right there to his left so he can wash his dirty hands and rinse the sink out fast before he has time to bring any mess through the rest of the house. It can get  pretty dirty living on a farm.

4. Did anything surprise you about the OutReach faucet?

I was really surprised by how easy it was to install. Really the SpeedConnect feature was easy to do even if you aren’t that familiar with plumbing.

5. How does the OutReach faucet help make your life as a farmer, mother and grandmother easier?

The OutReach Faucet truly is a life saver on the farm. Not only for cleaning up, but watering all the houseplants and seedlings we start,  keeping the toddlers clean when they come to visit, and shampooing my hair is also a biggie!

6. Anything else you’d like to share?

First I want to say thank you so very much for allowing me to review such a fabulous faucet! It’s made such a difference in our lives and I know everyone is going to love the OutReach Lavatory Faucet! There is just nothing else like it out there.  I truly believe every house should have this faucet!

Dog Days of Summer

Posted by: | Comments Comments Off

Summer is on its way, and in honor of the fun, more relaxed mood everyone finds themselves in this time of year, the Professor is giving in to an inner love of dogs. Maybe not an inner love of bathing dogs, but the convenient new OutReach bathroom faucet makes it really easy. And who doesn’t love a clip of an unbelievably cute dog being bathed with the pull-out faucet?
