Abstract
A soft-close pull-out faucet is disclosed. In one aspect, a faucet includes a faucet base, a faucet spout, and a spray head movable between a retracted position and an extended position. A hose extends through the faucet spout and connects to a water source and a spray head. A magnet is connected to the hose. A ring collar is fixed at least partially within the faucet spout and is formed of a non-ferretic and non-magnetic conductive material. The hose and the magnet are movable relative to the ring collar, and the magnet is positioned at least partially within the ring collar when the spray head is located in the retracted position.
