Anyone know where I can get a folding faucet?

I just got my a212hw and was wondering if anyone has a folding faucet or where to get one. I'd think it would be nice to fold the faucet down vs taking it off during breakdown.

Search for "fold down faucet" or "fold down pop-up faucet" and you'll find plenty.

We have A213HW. It came with the second faucet pictured above. It is nice, just folds down out of the way and firs the sink nicely. But there is one problem I’m having with it. The gold colored nut that screws on the bottom won’t stay tight. Any clues or advice how to tighten it up so it stays tight??

Some weak loctite would work. If you don't have any of that some clear fingernail polish on the threads should hold it from backing off.

The other day I was thinking what a nice faucet that is. Kinda out of character compared to the outside pos..

Mine was loose upon delivery, but no issues since I tightened it. Second the locktite. The vibrations while underway has to be crazy.

The best/correct way to keep it tight is to purchase a thin rubber gasket and a friction gasket/ring/washer to put between the nut and the bottom of the sink. The rubber will compress between the friction gasket and the sink, keeping constant pressure on the connection so it doesn’t loosen-up. Using Loctite, nail polish or glue may work for a short time, but you will, for sure, find your faucet loosening again soon, and you might find yourself having a hard time getting the faucet to ever tighten again. The compression of the rubber may fatigue over time, but all you will need to do when that time comes is tighten the nut a little more to compress the rubber a little.

Thanks, found that one on Amazon for $68. So no issues with it?

Our faucet is installed at an angle. Before I attempt to loosen and straighten, is there a reason (fit) for it to be on an angle. It's an OCD thing, but we both would like it to be perpendicular to the sink.

One handle hot & cold? Wont there be an unused hole on the counter?

Probably, you would have to look. You could use it with a soap dispenser
