It’s no secret that Americans have increased their time in the kitchen since the onset of the pandemic. More than ever, it is a center for work, school, cooking, eating, and gathering, resulting in a strong consumer desire for kitchens with maximum functionality.
In fact, The New Home Trends Institute (NHTI) by John Burns Real Estate Consulting says functionality is a top theme for today’s homes, “2021 will force homes and communities to service many more parts of our lives,” writes NHTI.

Pot filler faucets can be a luxurious addition to any kitchen, but their convenience addresses the wants and needs of today’s homeowners.
The handy, usually wall-mounted faucet at the back of the range or cooktop makes getting water to the cooking surface easier and faster by relieving homeowners from carrying a heavy pot of water from a sink. These faucets also flow at a much faster rate than a traditional kitchen faucet, adding to their convenience.
Manufacturers continue to release pot fillers in an array of styles, making it easy to find one that fits the kitchen’s overall theme, though many new releases focus on modern styling to meet the growing demand. Still, these brands also know homeowners prefer a cohesive design, in which the pot filler matches other faucets found throughout the kitchen, such as the main kitchen sink, a prep sink, or a bar sink.
Here are nine pot fillers for kitchens with contemporary, traditional, and transitional styles—and everything installation type in between.

Juxtapose Wall-Mount Pot Filler - Kallista
Kallista says the Juxtapose collection works well in modern kitchens because of its minimalist profile and softly curved edges.

Manis’ minimalist aesthetic works well in modern or contemporary kitchens, the brand says.
