I am having a problem with my kitchen faucet's spray hose getting stuck on the water shut off valve below the sink. The sprayer is a stand alone item, not part of the actual faucet. I am wondering if anyone makes a shield or guard that can be attached to the water line above the shut off valve that allows the hose to just slide over it. Any other suggestions would be appreciated as well. Thanks!

It won't look pretty... but cardboard and ducktape :)
Had to do that myself

Thanks for the answer StaticFX. Seems like someone would have come up with an invention for this by now... but your idea would definitely work until someone does.

Hmmm... you should whip something up! You could make a fortune! And have that loud guy on TV selling it for $19.95! Lol

I actually do have an idea for an invention for this that might work... plus another invention I'm working on. One thing is for sure, if I ever get something marketed I will refuse to use loudmouth Billy for the commercials! Every time he comes on TV I hit the MUTE button!

A hanger, a thin strip of metal, a thin strip of plastic (perhaps something cutout from an old Tupperware container), cardboard or anything that can be bent into a bow. Shape it into a bow that extends out far enough so that it will guide the hose over the valve. Screw this device to the back of your cabinet. If your sink is in an island cabinet, be sure that the screws aren't too long that they will protrude though the front surface of your cabinets.

Or just a glue a long wide strip of wood (wide enough that it extends beyond the valve) to the back of your cabinet.

What I did: I had a piece of that insulated foam that they put around pipes. It's foam so it's not itchy. It's about 1/2 inch thick, cylinder in shape and it has a slit on one side so that you can slip it right over pipe. I just placed a six inch piece around the pipe and over the valve. In my case, the offending valve was low profile so it fit right over the valve too and required no tape. Works great and can be removed effortlessly to access the valve.

Whatever solution you choose, just be sure that your remedy doesn't impede your ability to operate the valve.
