one handle or two?

[fflo]

Me, I come from a one-handle kitchen faucet family, and I currently have a one-handler, too. I like the ease of use of it and all, and am used to it, but maybe it'd be good to have the two twisters, for things like getting just hot or just cold water. And they look cool. What do ya'll think about one and two handles?

Here's a poll, but please comment, too, if anything strikes you.

And here's some fancy faucets I won't be getting, as they all cost over $500:

plural handles that are worth having...

...usually cost $500 in this country, and i don't know why. they are the ones which are long enough so you don't have to develop the carpal tunnel syndrome to use your faucet (see pictures above). also, these foreign kinds (usually italian) also assume (correctly) that one would want to wash one's hands without banging them into the sink walls. how strange. i'm never sure why longer faucets and handles are so rare and so expensive. must be one of those *conspiracies that we're not even aware of, i reckon, which should train us not to expect much from living here.

I started to answer you here with a faux rant about how the poor need incentives, like the promise of better sink hardware, to inspire rising above the lazy no-goodnik-ness that is the only reason anyone isn't constantly upwardly mobile here in the Land of Opportunity---but I couldn't bring myself to finish it, even dripping with irony.
