Kraus Bolden 2-in-1 Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet - Integrated Filter Tap

Our review of the Kraus Bolden 2-in-1 pull-down kitchen faucet finds it most useful for households that want a single, streamlined fixture for both regular sink duties and filtered drinking water. The faucet combines a commercial-style open-coil spout and a dedicated filter tap using DuoPure technology, so users can switch between regular and filtered water without adding a separate dispenser. With a tall 18 3/4 in overall height and a 360 swivel spout, it balances task flexibility and a neat look in kitchens that pair brushed brass finishes with modern or industrial styling.

Key Features

• 2-in-1 Filter Faucet: The integrated filter tap provides immediate access to purified water for drinking and cooking without a second faucet, saving counter space.
• DuoPure Technology: Independent water lines prevent cross-contamination so filtered water is routed separately from the main supply for consistent purity.
• Commercial Open-Coil Spout: The high-arc open-coil design and pull-down sprayhead offer extended reach and an industrial aesthetic that swivels 360 degrees for full sink coverage.
• Reach Pull-Down Sprayer: The retractable hose with swivel adapter gives flexible maneuverability to rinse large pots and clean all corners of the sink.
• Spot-Free Brushed Brass Finish: The finish resists fingerprints and water spots for a cleaner appearance with less frequent wiping.
• Pre-Attached Lines and Hardware: The faucet ships with mounting hardware and pre-attached water lines to simplify installation with most under-counter filter systems.

Who It's For

The Bolden is ideal for homeowners who want a single faucet that delivers both everyday tap water and a dedicated filtered outlet, particularly those using an under-counter reverse osmosis or water filter system. It suits kitchens with enough clearance for its 18 3/4 in height and buyers who prefer a commercial look with a high-arc spout and pull-down convenience.

It may be less appropriate for buyers seeking a warranty-backed long-term heavy-duty commercial fixture or those with concerns about long-term gasket durability; several users have reported issues over time. Also check dimensions carefully if you have low-hung cabinets above the sink.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Integrated filter tap eliminates the need for a second faucet and keeps counter space clear.
• Solid build quality and attractive brushed brass finish make it a stylish centerpiece.
• 360-degree swivel and pull-down sprayer deliver excellent maneuverability around the sink.

Cons

• Some users report durability concerns with gaskets and potential leakage over extended use, so long-term reliability can vary.
