Best Touchless Kitchen Faucets for Hands-Free Sinks

The deciding specification is whether the maker publishes a full set of dimensions, and only three of the five do.

Our verdict

The DELTA Trinsic is the only true touch faucet here, with a 9.5 inch depth and a 6.0 pound weight, and it is the largest pick on both counts. The simplehuman Liquid Sensor Pump is the smallest by width at 2.8 inches and by depth at 4.4 inches. The AIKE AK1205FA is the largest by width at 4.72 inches. The Greatmay two pack is the smallest by weight at 0.56 pounds. The ZHIXUMM unit combines washing and drying in one body.

“Three of the five publish a full set of dimensions.”

Lush Editorial Team

What separates these five

Dimensions decide the fit Only three of the five publish width, depth and height. The DELTA is the largest by depth at 9.5 inches and the simplehuman the smallest by width at 2.8 inches.
Dispensing control The simplehuman varies output by hand distance. The AIKE offers 5 adjustable levels. The Greatmay offers 4 levels from 0.4 ml to 3 ml.
Power and charging The simplehuman and Greatmay recharge by magnetic USB. The AIKE runs on 4 AA batteries. The DELTA and ZHIXUMM publish no power source.
Mounting The DELTA fits 1 or 3 hole 8 inch center installations. The AIKE supports screw and nail-free glue mounting with a required height above 10 inches.
What the makers do not state Capacity in milliliters, spout reach and flow rate are absent from most sheets. The ZHIXUMM and menglanchang publish no dimensions at all.

How we chose

Priorities, not a computed score. The inputs are published specifications, so we rank by what matters most and say how much.

  1. 30% Published dimensionsA fixture that does not fit the sink or the wall cannot be installed, so width, depth and height carry the most weight.
  2. 25% Dispensing controlHow much soap or water the unit releases, and whether that amount can be adjusted, decides daily usefulness.
  3. 20% Power sourceRechargeable, battery or unspecified changes the maintenance the owner takes on.
  4. 15% Mounting requirementsHole count, deck plate needs and wall type determine whether the unit can go where the reader wants it.
  5. 10% Stated gapsWhat the maker leaves unpublished tells the reader what to confirm before ordering.

How the Five Compare on the Numbers

The five picks split into two groups. The DELTA Trinsic, the simplehuman Liquid Sensor Pump and the AIKE AK1205FA each publish a full set of dimensions, so a reader can check the fit before ordering. The Greatmay dispenser publishes only a weight of 0.56 pounds. The ZHIXUMM unit publishes no width, depth, height or weight at all, and the manufacturer does not state those figures.

Where figures exist, the spread is wide. The DELTA is the largest pick by depth at 9.5 inches and by weight at 6.0 pounds. The simplehuman is the smallest by width at 2.8 inches and by depth at 4.4 inches. The AIKE is the largest by width at 4.72 inches. The Greatmay is the smallest by weight at 0.56 pounds.

The table does not tell you spout reach, flow rate in gallons per minute, or the capacity of the DELTA in milliliters, because no manufacturer on this sheet publishes those figures. It also cannot tell you how any unit feels in the hand or how loud the ZHIXUMM dryer runs, since no decibel figure is stated for it. Those are questions for the maker, not for the table.

Dimensions and the Space They Occupy

What the published figures allow

The DELTA Trinsic publishes a width of 4.38 inches, a depth of 9.5 inches and a height of 9.5 inches, at 6.0 pounds. The AIKE publishes a width of 4.72 inches, a depth of 9.45 inches and a height of 4.33 inches, at 2.2 pounds. Those two are close on depth, within 0.05 inches, but the AIKE is the larger by width by 0.34 inches.

The simplehuman publishes a width of 2.8 inches, a depth of 4.4 inches and a height of 6.4 inches, at 0.88 pounds. It is the smallest pick by width and by depth. A reader with a narrow counter or a tight backsplash has the clearest case for it, because the figures are stated and the footprint is the smallest of the three that publish dimensions.

Where the sheet goes quiet

The Greatmay dispenser publishes a weight of 0.56 pounds and a capacity of 10 ounces, but no width, depth or height. The manufacturer does not state those figures. A reader who needs to know whether it fits a narrow ledge has to ask the maker or measure a unit in hand, because nothing on the sheet answers the question.

The ZHIXUMM unit publishes no width, depth, height or weight at all. The manufacturer does not state those figures. The sheet does state a 3000 ml soap capacity and a 304 stainless steel body, so the material and the soap volume are known, but the physical envelope is not. That is the largest single gap on this page.

Dispensing, Power and Mounting

How each unit releases soap or water

The DELTA is the only pick that starts and stops water by touch anywhere on the spout, with a single lever handle for manual use and a TempSense LED indicator for temperature. The simplehuman varies output by hand distance: close for a little soap, farther away for more. The AIKE offers 5 adjustable levels, and the Greatmay offers 4 levels from 0.4 ml to 3 ml.

The ZHIXUMM splits its functions across three sensor zones: water in the center, soap on the left and airflow on the right. The maker states a wind speed of 80 to 100 m/s and a drying time of 15 to 20 seconds. No other pick on this sheet combines water, soap and drying in one body, so it stands alone on that feature.

Power and installation

The simplehuman and the Greatmay both recharge by magnetic USB, and each maker states up to 3 months of use per charge. The AIKE runs on 4 AA batteries, which are not included. The DELTA and the ZHIXUMM publish no power source, so the manufacturer does not state how either is powered.

On mounting, the DELTA fits 1 or 3 hole 8 inch center installations, with an optional deck plate sold separately. The AIKE supports screw and nail-free glue mounting, with a required height above 10 inches, and the maker notes that glue mounting is for clean, dry, flat walls only, with 48 or more hours for fixation. The other three are countertop units.

Which One Fits Your Kitchen

You want a true touch faucet at the sink. The DELTA Trinsic starts and stops the flow when you touch the spout with a wrist or forearm, and the TempSense LED shows temperature from across the room. It is the largest pick by depth at 9.5 inches and by weight at 6.0 pounds.

You have a narrow counter. The simplehuman Liquid Sensor Pump is the smallest pick by width at 2.8 inches and by depth at 4.4 inches, and it recharges by magnetic USB with a stated 3 months per charge.

You want to mount the dispenser on a wall. The AIKE AK1205FA supports screw and nail-free glue mounting, with a required height above 10 inches, and offers 5 adjustable dispensing levels. It runs on 4 AA batteries, which are not included.

You want washing and drying in one body. The ZHIXUMM unit integrates hot and cold water, a soap dispenser and high-speed drying, with a 3000 ml soap reservoir. The manufacturer does not publish its width, depth, height or weight, so confirm the envelope before ordering.

You want a pair of soap dispensers. The Greatmay two pack is the smallest pick by weight at 0.56 pounds, with a 10 ounce capacity per unit, 4 dispensing levels and magnetic USB charging. The manufacturer does not publish its dimensions.

  • The width, depth and height of the ZHIXUMM unit, which the manufacturer does not publish.
  • The weight of the ZHIXUMM unit, which the manufacturer does not publish.
