ConservCo Waterfall Series Showerheads

The WS-M5C-C Multnomah Showerhead Combo-Pack, named after one of the largest waterfalls in the world, offers five spray patterns in a wide-faced “Rain-Style” showerhead. Engineered to flow at 2.5 gallons per minute, its design makes the user feel as if he or she is using more water. The Multnomah Combo-Pack includes two showerheads (one fixed and one handheld). The heads can be used together in one shower, or separately in two. The showerhead, made of ABS and brass, was seen at this year’s National Hardware Show’s New Product World. (conservco.us)


KitchenAid French Door Refrigerators

KitchenAid has introduced new freestanding French door refrigerators that utilize a system of advancements to extend the storage life of fresh and frozen ingredients. These models join a line of models with the company’s Preserva Food Care System, which controls humidity, ethylene gas and odors. Sequential dual evaporators provide independent cooling to help prevent refrigerator air from mixing with freezer air. Two interchangeable humidity-controlled crispers with a FreshFlow Produce Preserver in one of the crispers helps delay over-ripening by up to 25% in produce. The crispers are humidity-controlled automatically based on the amount and types of foods. (kitchenaid.com)

It has a Spot Resist Stainless finish, which resists water spots and fingerprints. It also features a high-arc spout — ideal for filling large pots and pans — and offers a 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 and a pause button. In addition, the Moen Reflex system offers a wide range of motion, reach and secure retraction. Each Russo faucet features the Moen 1255 Duralast cartridge for a smooth handle feel, as well as the Quick Connect installation system. A “click” audibly signals a secure connection and eliminates the need for tools to attach the water line to the faucet. (moen.com)
