The lower gallon per minute aerators are good for your bathroom faucets but for the kitchen you will probably require a higher gallon per minute model. There are also low flow swivel head aerators which are great for the kitchen, here is a link to examples http://www.faucetaerators.com/swivel-head-faucet-aerators-c-25.html you can't buy them here but can get them at the hardware store.
