Wondering.. Faucet that tilts up?

[makka619]

I was wondering if you can get a kitchen faucet that tilts up.

For eg, if you are filling a bucket, it would be handy to be able to lift the faucet up to get the bucket back out when filled.

Hope that makes sense.

Are these invented yet? If so what are they called?

You can get a tap with a retractable hose that you could pull out of the holder, allowing you to get the bucket out.

Does it have to tilt up? I have a mixer tap that can be swung to the side (installed on the corner of the sink) out of the way of the sink.

Two possibilities:

As Tools said, a tap with a retractable hose. I have one and you don't even need to put the bucket in the sink at all, just "take the tap to the bucket."

Or, there are high-arching taps which will clear the top of a bucket. Just swing it out of the way (as Tameriska said), insert bucket, fill, swing, lift out bucket.

Both are readily available. :)

Thanks guys, that's really awesome.

I will have to go look at the ones you described so I know which one to pick!

btw it's for a faucet with separate hot and cold taps. But I don't think that will make a difference. Might be less of a choice in finishes, but that could be a good thing.
