The Moen Essie Spot Resist Stainless MotionSense Wave One-Handle Touchless Kitchen Faucet with Pulldown Sprayer and Soap Dispenser, model 87014EWSRS, is a well-constructed kitchen fixture designed for hands-free convenience and lasting durability. Its body is fabricated from high-grade stainless steel with a Spot Resist finish that minimizes the appearance of water spots and fingerprints, helping to maintain a clean surface with less frequent wiping. The internal components feature reliable ceramic disc valve technology that resists wear and provides smooth, precise flow control over time. This faucet operates through MotionSense Wave technology, which allows the user to activate the water flow with a simple wave of the hand near the sensor on the spout. It also includes a traditional side handle for manual temperature and volume adjustment, offering both touchless and standard control depending on the task. The integrated pulldown sprayer extends a generous reach for filling large pots or rinsing dishes, with a dual-function spray head that toggles between a steady stream and a powerful rinse mode by pressing a button on the wand.

Additionally, the included soap dispenser is pre-filled and mounted directly on the deck, eliminating the need for a separate bottle near the sink. The construction emphasizes practical sturdiness: the faucet body is made from corrosion-resistant materials, the spray hose uses a durable nylon braid, and the mounting hardware is designed for straightforward installation on standard sink decks. Its single-hole or three-hole compatibility (with escutcheon plate) provides flexibility for various countertop configurations. The MotionSense sensor is calibrated to recognize intentional waves while reducing accidental activations, contributing to reliable day-to-day performance without wasting water. This faucet is suited for residential kitchens where ease of cleaning and efficient multitasking are priorities. The combination of touchless activation, an integrated soap dispenser, and a pull-down sprayer reduces the need to touch handles when hands are messy, which can help maintain hygiene during food preparation. The Spot Resist stainless finish offers practical aesthetics that hold up well in busy households, as it resists smudges and water spots better than standard polished stainless. Its overall functionality—responsive sensor, smooth pull-down action, and consistent water flow—makes it a capable addition to any modern kitchen, delivering a balance of innovation and everyday usability. Priced affordably, this model provides access to premium features without requiring a high investment. The Moen Essie series combines thoughtful design with robust materials, ensuring the faucet performs reliably through years of regular use. Whether for a new kitchen build or an upgrade, it presents a sensible option for those seeking a touchless, multifunctional faucet that maintains a clean look and simplifies daily kitchen tasks.
