The Many Benefits of a Pot Filler
By: Monika
They say necessity is the mother of invention. And while we don’t disagree, we believe that greater convenience can also be a strong motivator. Take an over-the-stove pot filler, for example. Do you need one? No. But once you have one you’ll wonder how you went so long without it.
Here are just a few ways a pot filler can make your life easier.
Greater Convenience
For many, filling a pot at the sink and moving it to the stove isn’t a tremendous task, but placing an empty pot right on the stove and filling it there, without heavy lifting or fear of spills, is much easier. Plus, if you’re at the sink rinsing vegetables or washing dishes while your cooking partner needs to fill a pot, there’s no need for them to wait or for you to interrupt your task.
Increased Safety
For those suffering from mobility impairment, arthritis, or other joint issues, lifting and carrying a heavy pot of water is not only uncomfortable but can be down-right dangerous. The ability to fill a pot right at the stove can eliminate potential spills, slips, and strains so you can safely focus on cooking.
Versatility
Sure you can use a pot filler to fill a pot, but it has so many more uses than that. Use it to quickly fill the tea kettle right at the stove, fill up the watering can, or add a bit more water to an already-cooking pot or pan as needed.
Time Saved
Cooking requires a good bit of multi-tasking ability. And a pot filler can help you save a little bit of time in the kitchen. For example, you no longer need to make room in the sink to fill a large pasta pot with water; just fill it at the stove and continue with your prepping and cooking tasks.
Style & Elegance
Available in a variety of styles and finishes, a pot filler can blend seamlessly into your existing kitchen design or be a statement piece all its own. This functional and elegant touch is sure to set your kitchen apart.
