NEW MOEN® RUSSO™ PULLDOWN KITCHEN FAUCET AT MENARDS
OFFERS BOTH INNOVATION AND STYLE
North Olmsted, Ohio…Selecting the perfect kitchen faucet can be a difficult choice. Do you choose based on style, finish or functionality? With the new Moen® Russo™ kitchen faucet, available exclusively at Menards, the choice is easy…you can have it all.
The Russo pulldown kitchen faucet($199.99)*offers exquisite styling with a single-handle, single-hole design. To add to its beauty, the Russo faucet is featured in Spot Resist™Stainless finish – a unique finish from Moen that actually resists water spots and fingerprints.
Beyond style, the functional faucet features a high-arc spout – ideal for filling large pots and pans – and offers a consumer-friendly, multi-function pulldown wand to allow users to switch between several water-flow patterns with the touch of a button, including powerful spray, aerated stream anda handy pause button. Additionally, Russo features the new Moen Reflex®system. Reflex offers outstanding performance with exceptional range of motion, generous reach and secure retraction.
“Reflex was designed based on the findings of an extensive, two-year research study where we observed consumers in their own homes, to understand what delights and frustrates them when using a pulldown faucet,” said Andrea Conroy, director of retail marketing, Moen. “This thoughtful design process led to the best possible mix of meaningful innovation and useful features.”
The functionality doesn’t stop with Reflex. Each Russo faucet featuresthe Moen 1255® Duralast® cartridge for a consistently smooth handle feel, as well as the Quick Connect installation system. Making them faster and easier to install, a telltale "click" audibly signals a secure connection and eliminates the need for tools to attach the water line to the faucet.
The Russo pulldown kitchen faucet is ADA compliant and offers a limited lifetime warranty.**
