Foot Pedal Faucet

Does anyone have one of these Foot Pedal Faucets ? I saw this on a TV show once.

http://www.activeforever.com/product...,0004,0072.htm

Any input on brand names, things to look for, etc. would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott

Wow, that's expensive. What do you see as the advantage in your garage? For greasy hands? I think it would be more cost-effective to keep a roll of paper towels next to the sink and wipe the grease off first, or use the towel to open the faucet. However, foot activated sinks are nice...but at that price, I think you could buy a Bradley sink for your garage, or at least get a good down payment on it...

I have three of these.... in my operating room.

They are a requirement for a surgical hand scrub prior to surgery, but it seems excessive for home use.

We use those too where we clean instruments. Our scrub sinks use knee operated ones. Looks like a horseshoe on a stick. I'll look on Monday and see if I can get a name. There's also one in your link that is motion activated for $68.95. Would that be a good alternative? Only downside is it needs 4AAA batteries.
