When our house was built 25 years ago, I asked for a laundry tub in the laundry room.  The builder miscalculated and I ended up with a bar sink.  This kind of faucet gives me the height I need to make the small sink more usable and it also does not extend forward so far that the water stream comes dangerously close to the front edge of the sink.  

Pros: Love the oil rubbed bronze finish, the height and depth of the neck
