    Moen. The Brantford pulldown kitchen faucet with Reflex technology extends smoothly and snaps back fast--40% easier to operate than other pulldown systems, claims the manufacturer. Designed to twist with the wrist and reach all hard-to-clean crevices in the sink bowl, the faucet docks completely in the spout and the weighted hose will not snag under the counter. Reflex technology will be available with all Moen pulldown faucets by the end of the year. 800.289.6636. www.moen.com.—E.R.

    Native Trails. Stained from years of casking wine, the Vinter's Collection of vanities and mirrors repurpose oak wine barrels and staves headed for a landfill. Made from red and white wine barrel staves, the Cabernet and Chardonnay vanities measure 36 inches wide by 21.5 inches deep by 34 inches high and match the mirror frames imprinted with the wine maker's stamp. The firm crafts the Bordeaux wall mount vanity from salvaged French and domestic wine barrels and is 24 inches wide by 19 inches deep and 19 inches high. 800.786.0862. www.nativetrails.net.—E.R.
