Pot-Filler Function and a Finish That Works in Any Kitchen
The Karran Adlington KKF360MB is a single-handle pull-down kitchen faucet that adds a dedicated pot-filler function alongside its full-featured spray head, finished in Matte Black for kitchens where hardware needs to hold its look under daily wear.
Key Features
• Pull-down spray head travels into the bowl on a retractable hose for rinsing and cleanup with full directional reach.
• Integrated pot-filler function provides a dedicated fill mode alongside the standard spray head, reducing trips between faucet and stovetop.
• Single lever control adjusts both flow and temperature with one hand.
• Ceramic cartridge rated to 1.5 million cycles for long-term valve reliability.
• Lead-free brass construction with a durable PVD-applied Matte Black finish.
• Single-hole mounting with mounting hardware and hot and cold water lines included.
Two Functions Where Most Faucets Offer One
The Adlington's pot-filler function sets it apart from a standard pull-down. When filling a stockpot, a dutch oven, or a pasta insert, you can use the dedicated fill mode rather than awkwardly angling the spray head or pulling a separate wall-mount arm. The retractable pull-down head still handles everyday rinse and cleaning tasks, switching between an aerated stream and a spray pattern. Between the two modes, this faucet covers more of what a working kitchen actually needs at the sink.
Matte Black Built to Stay That Way
Matte Black in this line is not a painted or powder-coated surface. The finish is applied by PVD over a lead-free brass body, which means it bonds at the material level rather than sitting on top. The result holds up to the routine contact, water, and soap residue that a kitchen faucet sees every day. The nylon braided hose is color-matched to the Matte Black finish, so there is no bright or mismatched hardware visible at the base. For kitchens that have committed to a dark hardware palette, this is a faucet that coordinates with pulls, knobs, and fixtures without requiring finish touch-ups over time.
Where This Faucet Fits Best
This faucet is a natural fit for a kitchen renovation where the sink base has a single drilled hole, or where a fabricator will drill one. The pot-filler function makes it particularly well-suited to households that cook in volume, including entertaining-focused kitchens, open-plan spaces with a large sink run, and any setup where a wall-mount pot filler is not practical or was not roughed in. Cabinet shops and designers specifying hardware for a full kitchen build will find the Matte Black finish coordinates cleanly with Karran's Matte Black soap dispensers for a matched installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the pot-filler function work on this faucet?
The pot-filler function is a named feature of the Adlington KKF360 and operates through the faucet's delivery system. It supplements the standard pull-down spray head as a dedicated fill mode, making it practical to fill large pots directly at the sink without repositioning the spray head.
What is included in the box?
Mounting hardware and hot and cold water lines are included with the faucet per the specification sheet. A soap dispenser is an optional coordinating accessory and is not included.
Does this faucet require a deck plate for a three-hole sink?
The Adlington mounts through a single hole. If your sink or countertop has three holes, a deck plate would be needed to cover the additional openings. A deck plate is not included; confirm availability separately if your installation requires one.
Will the Matte Black finish show water spots?
Matte Black is not a Spot Free finish variant. Water mineral deposits can show on any matte surface over time. Wiping the faucet dry after use is the straightforward way to keep it looking clean. If spot resistance is a priority, consider the Spot Free finish family options available in other Karran faucets.
What countertop thickness does the mounting hardware accommodate?
The specific maximum deck thickness is not published in the available specification data. For thick stone or built-up countertops, verify with your fabricator before finalizing the installation plan.
A Faucet That Does More Work at the Sink
The Adlington in Matte Black pairs a finish built for long-term consistency with a pot-filler function that expands what a single-hole faucet can do, making it a strong single choice for kitchens where both style and utility matter.
