Let's find out some features, quality and price representatives from different segments.
Let's start with budget ones, the quality of which is at a high level, despite the affordable cost.
Russian company IDDIS produces a wide range of faucets of various designs - from retro chic to modern, including non-standard models. So there is a choice for every taste. Although most often among the assortment you can find chrome options, which are best suited for stainless steel sinks.
Vidima (Bulgaria) is open in indicating the expiration dates of goods, so choosing the most durable models will not be difficult. The company has its own production of brass alloys, so it can vouch for the quality of the material. The “Romance” and Seva collections are especially appreciated by customers. The only drawback is that if the mixer breaks down, it is difficult to find spare parts.
The company has proven itself in the middle price segment Grohe, which specializes in modern models equipped with many useful additional functions, for example, all kinds of water treatment systems, including filtration and carbonation. Their faucets are environmentally friendly and have a recognizable stylish design. The disadvantage is the company's love for easily soiled chrome surfaces.
One of the best companies producing luxury plumbing fixtures is Blanco from Germany. Consumers appreciate it for its incredible variety of models, each of which is not only safe, reliable and durable, but also equipped with a huge number of additional functions. Theoretically, the disadvantages include the short warranty period of the goods, but in practice, the products of this company last for years and decades without the slightest breakdown.
Which brand of bathroom faucet is better to choose?
If you need a high-quality single-lever model, I recommend the company "AM.PM": they produce taps with a simple but very reliable design and at the same time stylish design. For example, the Like faucet (F8010000) is made of brass and coated with chrome. Its aerator is easy to clean and does not accumulate limescale.
When you turn off the shower, it automatically switches to the tap. Perhaps the only negative point is the absence of a shower head in its standard configuration - you will have to buy it yourself. On the other hand, this will be a plus for those who would like to choose something special.
Mixers from the already mentioned company Grohe Great not only for the kitchen, but also for the bathroom. They will be especially appreciated by those who care about the environment: such taps have a special “eco mode” that allows you to reduce water consumption to 2.5 liters per minute. At the same time, the stream becomes softer and more uniform.
The Grohe faucet lever is made using the SilkMove system, which ensures it moves as smoothly as possible. I will also mention that all products from this company are very easy to install. Well, the disadvantages of chrome coating have already been mentioned.
IN Lemark You can purchase a universal long swivel faucet that can be used for both the sink and the bath, which is very economical. The products of this company are valued by consumers for their durability and scratch resistance: even after many years they look like new.
On a personal note, I’ll also add that the shower hose on Lemark faucets is located on the side rather than in the center, which I find more convenient. But lovers of durable cranes will also feel a slight drawback from this: at first the mechanisms will move slowly, but over time everything will come into order.
I hope this article was useful to you and will help you choose the faucet of your dreams!
