Ranking of the best bathroom and kitchen faucets in 2024

The use of water in the modern world is difficult to imagine without a convenient and functional mixer. We'll talk about how to choose the right faucet for a bathroom or kitchen, and the best models of devices below.

What to look for when choosing a kitchen faucet

No kitchen will be complete without the installation of a high-quality mixer that matches the style and design. However, an experienced hostess, in addition to the beauty of a plumbing assistant, should pay attention to its functionality. When buying a sink mixer, you should pay attention to some of its features, which will further facilitate your daily work in the kitchen. So this:

• Spout height

It is selected in accordance with the depth of the sink: the deeper the sink, the lower the gander can be and vice versa. The high spout is convenient for pouring water into tall containers, when washing large dishes.

• Spout swivel

The swivel spout is convenient in that it can be turned in a direction convenient for you. The angle of rotation can be from 90 to 360 degrees. Minus one - the more often you turn, the higher the likelihood of leakage under the gander.

• The presence of a pull-out spout

A pull-out watering can is the solution to all the hostess's problems It combines practicality and convenience without making the mixer bulky.

• Possibility of connecting a filter for drinking water

Many modern models are equipped with this function. In addition, some of them have not only a lever, but also a separate spout for filtered water, which excludes its mixing with tap water.

• Water temperature and pressure limiters

A convenient function, especially if there are children who already use the mixer on their own. Also, limiting water pressure allows you to save it.

• Equipment

Before buying, it is important to clarify the size of the pipes to which the mixer will subsequently be connected, because most European models have a 3/8 '' connection size and 1/2 '' pipes, which requires an adapter, which may not be included in the kit.

What to look for when choosing a bathroom faucet

• Bath-shower mode switch

It is of two types: automatic and manual. Automatic - when you turn off the water when using the shower, it switches itself to the spout. Convenient because will help to avoid a situation when water from a watering can pours on your head, but you just wanted to wash your hands. Manual - you need to switch yourself. The plus is that it is possible to use a shower even with a low water pressure.

In addition, the switch can be push-button or rotary. This is already a matter of taste and habit.

• Bottom valve

The ability to connect a bottom valve will eliminate the need to search for plugs to close the drain hole when dialing a bath. A convenient system that comes into play at the push of a button on the mixer. Most models are not included in the kit, but it is possible to connect.

• Watering can holder

It can be wall-mounted or placed on a faucet. Wall holders do not allow you to adjust the height of the watering can, so you have to buy a bar. The holder on the mixer is convenient if you are not standing up to shower.

• Mixer capacity

An important criterion that shows how quickly the bath will fill with water. For bathrooms, the recommended value is 15 l / min and higher. It is important to remember that the higher this indicator, the greater the water consumption.

• Spout length

A long gander is necessary if you plan to use it both in the bathtub and in the sink. If the use is limited only to the bathroom, then a short spout is enough, but not very much so that the water jet does not break on the side.

• Thermostat

The presence of a thermostat will save you from constantly adjusting the water temperature, from which the quality of water procedures will only increase. However, these models do not differ in low prices.
