Xcel Home Brushed Stainless Steel Mixer Kitchen Sink Tap | Elite Range Abode | Swivel Single Lever Mono-Bloc Tap | Comes with Fittings & Hose Connectors

Excellent tap of good quality.

The tap looks quite nice and sleek. Has a good look and weight to it so definitely doesn’t look the price. Though I did but it much cheaper than retail price.Easy to install and good value for money.

2024 note: the low pressure can be related to aerator. I cannot verify it.I had Di Vapor Titan kitchen sink tap for nearly 20 years without any issue. It started to leak from cold water side so I decided to repair or change it. Rigt or wrong I had some negative reviews about the recent DiVapor Titan so I ( perhaps wrongly since reviews are not always helpful and perhaps this one!)purchased this one mainly because it is brushed steel and enough height, though I do not like it’s square shape. All seems to be ok, however these are some findings after using it for a week,1- the handle’s lever is not easily accessible because of of dish drainer and distance to the back ,where it may not be other’s problem. This design is perhaps for open area around the sink otherwise the handle practically touches the wall.2- the main issue appears to be the water pressure( cold land hot) comparatively with what I had before. Plumber notice it first. I might be wrong but my feeling is that the pressure is lower than it was before.It can be because it is taller than previous one! or the mechanism inside has smaller holes or the flexible pipe provided is narrow, Nevertheless it feels like the pressure is less than before and I started to have doubt about this purchase and wether it was was a good choice for me!On positive side it is brushed steel where it persuaded me to buy it by only looking at the image in Amazon!

The tap looks good, but that's the only positive. It's very tricky to fit: the cylindrical metal part that goes underneath the sink/worktop and fastens to the tap itself and should screw so tight as to hold the tap firm, is too short to be able to get a good grip on. Fitting it as a 2-person job, by the way: one person to hold the tap in place while the other person tries to screw the too-short part in underneath; your arms just won't be long enough to do both yourself.So I fitted the tap about 15 months ago and have had to re-tighten that bottom part 3 or 4 times. Each time it's a frustrating, tetch-inducing (2-person) job.About a month ago, I noticed that the upper part of the tap was coming loose. I then saw why: the upper part was protruding out of the bottom part by about a centimeter - I could see most of the grey/white plastic washer that should be hidden within the lower part. I carefully pressed the upper part down and it popped back into place, but after a day or two, it had started to rise and come loose again. I pulled it out completely and could see that the grey/white plastic washer has cracked - a thin, hairline crack from top to bottom.So, after less than 18 months, I find myself looking for a replacement. I won't be buying this one again, that's for sure.

Bought as part of other items to refresh our tired kitchen. The new sink and worktops needed a single point sturdy faucet to complement the modernisation. We chose the brushed stainless steel look over chrome or black for its look and durability.The tall outlet enables easy access to items in the sink, tap controls easy to operate and adjust.Two years later still pleased with our choice and happy to write this review.

Great Value for money and good quality

Unfortunetly the tap thread is too short to get through the worktop and get the nut on. Had to buy additional parts

looked nice but doe not stay tight keeps working loose
