Are you looking to buy, or perhaps design a kitchen? There\u2019s one tiny thing you most likely haven\u2019t thought of: do you want a one lever kitchen tap or two?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kitchen taps<\/a> might seem like a small thing compared to other concerns when buying or building a kitchen. But don\u2019t just dismiss it because even that \u201csmall\u201d thing could affect how your entire kitchen will look and work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s compare single-handle vs double-handle kitchen faucets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s a Single-Handle Kitchen Faucet?<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

A single-handle faucet<\/a> – also called a one-lever kitchen tap – has just one lever. You move it up and down to control the flow of water, and side to side to change the temperature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s simple to use and quick to install because it only needs one hole in the sink or countertop. That\u2019s why it\u2019s popular in small spaces. It\u2019s also easier to operate with one hand, even if your hands are full or messy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s a Double-Handle Kitchen Faucet?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A double-handle faucet has two separate handles: one\u2019s for hot water and the other for cold. It\u2019s commonly used in classic kitchen designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It takes more time to install since it usually needs three holes. It\u2019s also a little harder to use with one hand. But double-handle faucets give you more control over the temperature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One vs Two Handles: Which Is Better?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a side-by-side kitchen faucet handle types comparison:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

There\u2019s no \u201cbest\u201d because it depends on the user\u2019s taste and how the kitchen will be used. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But generally speaking, younger homeowners or minimalist designers tend to choose single-handle taps. Double-handle styles are more common in older homes and luxury kitchens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
