What is a good way to keep the spray nozzle hose that is under the sink from
catching on the shutoff valve handles when you pull the hose up?
Drives me crazy.

I used a piece of cardboard to make a "3 sided box" to contain the hose
against the back of the cabinet.

wrap saran wrap over the handles to make them smoother.
or, let stiff new spray hose relax its kinks by spraying hot water
from it for a minute or as needed.
or just let Her do the dishes.

If enough room......you could cut a piece of PVC and use it as a
channel. Leave the end where the hose meets the top of sink so the
hose is guided into the PVC. Can screw the PVC into the rear of sink
at around a 45 degree angle. What ya think? :-)

a screw into the sink? wouldn't that cause a leak?

Only if done properly (BEG)

Of course not..........into the framing / wall, or
such................not the sink itself. Do we have to explain or word
every detail precisely. Use your brain.

Our builder used a 1" plastic cable clamp screwed to the back wall of
the cabinet.

I used a section of PVC pipe, but anything you can stick to the back
wall would work - mailing tube, a corrugated box, a tin can with both
ends cut off. I got exasperated every time I used the thing until it
dawned on me that I just needed something long enough to keep the hose
from looping around the shut-off. I used my favorite, silicone caulk,
to stick the pipe to the wall, held with painter's tape until set.

Similar, but I used the cardboard to cover the handles.

use a zip tie to hold the hose closer to something so that the loop
doesn't hook around the handle.

I ended up using a 2" electrical conduit clamp mounted between the hot and
cold shutoff valves screwed to the back so it would not catch on the
handles. Ran just the movable part of the hose behind the clamp. It was
mounted high enough so that the loop would not snag the clamp.

Get over yourself. If you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the
porch. Who are you?

This post may be 9 years old but I have the same problem now and the ideas are very helpful. So thanks to "Name" for resurrecting the topic.
