I am in AZ - home of the dry heat. Keep the bedroom at 69 during the summer and we love to hunker down under a comforter but don't like the weight of anything too heavy. After buying and discarding countless down comforters, we purchased a silk filled one at Costco. It was one of those traveling show things. We paid $270 plus tax but that was 2 years ago. King 106 x 96. Washes easily, doesn't bunch up line so many of them do. Website is smartsilk.com and it looks like Amazon may carry them. Amazon typically has a generous return policy too. I too could not buy a comforter sight unseen unless I knew I could easily return it.

My Mom has had her Delta Leland pull down faucet for 2 years and has never had any issues with it. She loves it. I have had my Delta Leland pull down faucet in since Thanksgiving of 2013, and so far I haven't had any problems with it either. I Love the simplicity of using it. I like the features it has and the love the style of it in my traditional/vintage kitchen. We both bought bought them from Home Depot. They are in Stainless Steel. We both decided not to use the included soap dispenser, we didn't want to make another hole in our quartz counters. We both like the magnetic docking system for the sprayer head. Never has any issues with it. So far we are very happy with our choice. Here is a link that might be useful: Delta Leland This post was edited by NWRain-Gal on Mon, Jun 16, 14 at 5:23

I'm kind of in this dilemma and have been considering posting for ideas. I'm going to have uppers above the sink and although I'll have 18", I'm not sure if it will look strange to have a tall gooseneck there. Unlike you, though, I'm open to a pullout if it has the right look. I'm looking for both low profile pulldowns and tallish pullouts. I actually think it is possible that a pullout has an advantage as the reach might be less to get to the faucet. I'm also -considering- touch activation for that reason. I'm a little concerned about the reach to the back of the counter under those upper cabinets... My partner has also offered to modify the uppers so they are less deep over the sink if we end up feeling the uppers are really in our face. If I had any other layout, I'd bump the cabinet up over the sink or get rid of a cabinet there altogether. But, I have this backsplash window I am trying to learn to play nice with... Maybe this thread can become a place for us to post possibilities for both of us - and future folks in this dilemma. I'm not sure how a prep faucet would function as a main faucet. My gut says not so well? This post was edited by Steph2000 on Sun, Sep 8, 13 at 13:17

I have just gone through this search myself, but I was looking for a faucet for my laundry room, where the sink is actually a "doggie bath", so I needed it to be able to pull down low to rinse all soap off from the belly. After ordering one and realizing the exact same thing that you did...that it does not pull out, and the spring is tight....I researched and found 2 options that might be helpful for you....(I have not installed mine yet, and I am keeping both so that I can make a "game time decision" once the house is finished) . First one is the Ruvati Cascada http://www.efaucets.com/detail.asp?product_id=RVF1215ST#specifications This is a commercial style WITH a pull out feature. Second option is the Brizo Artesso articulating arm faucet: http://www.efaucets.com/detail.asp?Product_Id=63225LF-SS The Brizo has a different, but interesting look. Hope this helps.
