Kraus was not the only company with an award winning faucet. The U by Moen™ Smart Faucet won the Best of KBIS Smart Home Technology award this year.
As you can see, it looks like an ordinary faucet. It actually comes in many different finishes and styles. Where this one shines is in how it works.
Do you ever have to measure out a ½ cup of water? I do and it usually involves pouring in too much water, pouring too much out, adding more water back in and looking for the meniscus at eye level. This faucet eliminates that task. The water can be controlled by using a digital voice assistant such as Google or Alexa, or a smartphone App, or using a simple hand movement or the old fashioned way with the handle. But by using the voice assistant you can control the precise Amount and Temperature of the water! This is a battery operated system so does not require its own dedicated outlet. Moen claims the batteries will last up to 2 years. Great for filling baby bottles with the precise amount and temperature of water. I bet you can think of many other ways to use this.
