So you don't have to carry the water twice.

a pot filler by above the range only

No pot fillers, especially in a small kitchen where visually you want to declutter.

Backsplash: DH was lucky enough to find really high end cream-colored square tiles at an estate sale. They blend with our cream cabinets. We added tiny copper fleur de lys accents in between the tiles throughout; and above the stove inserted a copper plaque depicting a hummingbird with flowers. It goes well with our hammered copper sink and walnut countertops.

I haven't put one in any of the kitchens I have redone. I don't tend to do huge pots of water (pasta for 12? Lobster fest?) very frequently though.

Thank you. Any recs for really nice backsplash? It is a really small area so I can afford to splurge.

You probably want to start a new thread or search for backsplash threads, but lots of people think marble is great if you can splurge.

I don't see the point

They are kind of 80's.

I would prefer not to have one. Everyone I know when one has had it break.

I have never heard of a pot filler. SMH.

We did a high-end kitchen renovation and didn't do a pot-filler. Our house sold quickly for over asking price, so I don't think it hurt resale!

I wouldn't set foot in a kitchen without a pot filler. Imagine.

I think pot fillers are silly.

Is a pot filler a must? I thought it would help resale since our kitchen is really small. Must it match the faucet finish or is stainless to match appliances ok? Thank you.
