I'll keep it simple: The Kwik Sip is an easy-to-install extension that lets you use almost any standard-sized faucet as a water fountain with the push of a button. Just unscrew the filter/aerator off your faucet, twist this extension on, and you're done.

And why would anyone want such a thing, you ask? I can think of a few reasons:

• If you're the type to use disposable cups to rinse after brushing or when taking pills, now you can stop that.
• If you ever need to fill containers or flower pots that are too tall to fit under the faucet, this thing lets you bypass the issue entirely.
• If you have a health condition (such as Parkinson's or arthritis) that makes it difficult to handle a water glass, having a faucet makes things easier.
• Small children have an easier time rinsing with a fountain than by cupping their hands in the water.

If you want to see what Kwik Sip is like in action, watch their hilariously bad TV spot:

Despite that commercial, Kwik Sip is still a pretty nifty item. Get it for $18 at Amazon.
