Delta's established touch-activation technology for bathroom faucets, offered across several of its faucet styles with mainstream parts support.

Not for: People who don't want to replace batteries, or households where small children or pets will trigger the faucet by brushing against it.

Power source: Check whether the faucet runs on batteries or an AC adapter, and where the battery box mounts under the sink. A dead battery means the touch feature stops working, so it should be easy to reach.
Manual fallback: Choose a model that still works manually by its handle when power is lost. Otherwise a power failure or a dead battery leaves you with no water.
Temperature control: Look for a handle or lever that sets the temperature, while touch only switches the flow on and off. Touch-only units with a fixed mix can't adapt to the season or the task.
Auto shut-off: Look for a timed shut-off if the water is left running after a touch. It prevents overflows and wasted water in a small basin.

Delta: The most established touch-activation offering in residential bathroom faucets.
Moen: Better known for motion-sensing kitchen faucets. Confirm the exact bathroom feature before you buy.
Kohler: Offers electronic faucets, but check which activation method each model uses.
