Good value for money.
The plumber swapped it over in 15 minutes.
Love this tap .. so easy and quick to install. Great value for money also.
This was fitted by a plumber, but he recommended Bristan, as once the set is fitted, you only ever need to change the top part which makes things easier and cheaper in future. The design is simple, easy to clean and I am really happy with the ‘performance’ if you can say that about a tap!!!

Very pleased with this tap from bristan. The most important feature over ten year old bristan with this 1/ water flow control is almost at your finger tips very smooth operation.
2/ I am especially impressed by the amount of water usage that has been reduced.
With water being saved for me is ‘value ‘all around

This is smaller than some mixer taps so it fits well in the utility room sink. The side levers make it easier to tu
Good sturdy taps, very impressed. They are in constant use in a busy household
This is a good quality tap. Nice and easy to fit. Like the assembly
Good value for money. Easy to control with a nice narrow flow. Easy install is a bit of a gimmick as it’s just fiddly to install in my opinion. It is good and sturdy once installed.
When our mixer tap started leaking I looked at a lot of potential replacements from various well known retail outlets, a lot of them turned out to be of dubious quality and despite some very British sounding names were actually made in China. This cost a bit more but it’s made in the uk and the quality is fantastic, it’s been installed for a few months now and I’m really pleased with it.
Didn’t install it myself but it looks great and is so much better than our previous mixer tap with only one switch!
my brother in law fixed the tap in,he had a bit of a job because the tubes under the sink were not long enough to fix where the old ones came out.but he does that work and he had stuff in his van to make them fit.but now as long as we always buy the same make of tap it will be no problem fixing another tap.so im very pleased with them .thanks

Top quality and the easiest tap I’ve ever fitted, highly recommended.
A nice quality tap, although the given flexible connectors are on the short side, especially for a Kitchen sink. A small basin fair enough. But not for this use.
ice flow dosnt spray all over the place easy to control
These taps are elegant and easy to use. Got a plumber to install.
I am very pleased with them
Brilliant quality tap. Very pleased and would buy again. Looks really good.
Great product. Looks very smart and its very easy to install.
Bought to replace an age old mixer tap in our kitchen. Took hours to get that off had to cut pipes in end. Thankfully this came with flexible hoses to replace said pipes and was much quicker to fit than the old tap was to remove!
Be aware, supplier instructions are not up to date. It stated it would be marked which was front, it wasn’t. Also came with a plastic piece that was not covered in the instructions and large black plastic washer. Am assuming this was backing plate and black washer fits perfectly in it. But instructions state this is not included. It would be good for the company to ensure instructions reflect parts in box please. I used what I assume is backing plate as installing on thin stainless steel sink.
I would not have been able to fit this without someone else as it needed someone to hold it and start to screw it in whilst I was under sink holding back plate etc in place. Large Allen key supplied which allows you to then tighten from the top.
You were able to connect one flexible hose via the top which means that you don’t have to spend quite as long on your back under the sink and that one was easy to tighten in place.
Flexible hoses also easy to then screw into the isolaters on pipes and a quick tighten and they were ready.
It comes supplied with the isolator valves, but I already had these in situ so didn’t replace. Good that it comes with them though.
Tap just pushes onto the top brass bit when everything else is done and fixed using two small screws with tiny Allen key to tighten (supplied.)
Given the tight space you have to work with under a sink, it is a clever design and I like the fact that if I wanted to change it for another easy fit model it is as simple as undoing the two little screws on tap, taking off and putting new one on without changing anything else.
Looks stylish and hot and cold easy to turn on and off & mix to get perfect temperature. Has quite a high water flow so be careful or you could end up covered in water!
I would buy this again if I needed to, but hopefully that is me now for the next few years.
Firstly I am a diy’er, not a plumber so I don’t write this as a professional!

The top fit claim did not work on my sink. But the overall design of product helped with fitting.
Was suspicious at cheapness but this is awesome!
And flexible tails have proper 15mm compression ends not stupid 1/2″ female ends. Easy to fit too no messing with nuts under sink!
Speedy delivery, great price and looks lovely in my kitchen. Water flow is absolutely lovely – I love it!
Bristan can’t make it any easier great price great product no plumber needed but depending on your pipe work
Easiest tap I’ve ever fitted, nice quality too, highly recomend, everything supplied in box except the wrench to connect the shut off valve
Quality tap. Reasonably easy to fit. You may need some block tap spanner’s to remove your old tap. Second helper to install would be helpful. Smooth water flow. Such an improvement old my old tap for which I was unable source new ceramic valves
we are waiting for the taps to be fitted I am not able to give a full review
I’m a fan of Bristan products anyway and I wasn’t disappointed with the quality or the look. Much better price on Amazon than the other sites I checked.
I’m really pleased with the quality of this item, I like that now so long as I stay with the same brand I never have to go through the same pains of changing. It would be best if all tap companies adopted it as a standard fitting.
Removing the old one and fitting the base is easier than a traditional one but it’s still a job. Once that universal fitting is on though it was pretty easy putting the tap on itself.
The tap itself has a great finish it looks twice the price paid and the flow of water is nice and incrementally adjustable. It seems way stronger than the tap fitted in the house from new.
The easy fit etched logo is barely notice once fitted which was a concern before purchase. The main thing is though I’ll, hopefully, never have to go through the same pain of fitting a tap in our tight and awkward kitchen again.

Fitter said this is the easiest tap he has ever fitted. Love the style and the smoothness of the water outlet.
Would definitely recommend
The easy install system didn’t help us as the hole in out worktop wasn’t large enough for the fitting to pass through from above. This only added a few minutes to the install. We have low pressure hot water from a header tank around 6m above the tap and this tap gives around 4 times the flow rate of our previous tap – absolutely brilliant.
The aerator on the spout doesn’t seem to add any air so expect some impressive splash-back if the water on full hits something that directs it back to you!

Great tap, works well, looks good. Water pressure not as high as previous tap and much quieter but very sleek
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE watch the YouTube video on how to install especially if you have not installed taps before.
It took us hours to try and install and we were on the verge of giving up until we saw the you tube video and then it literally took us 20 mins!!!
I never thought I’d be enthusiastic enough about a tap to write a review for it on Amazon! The tap shape is slightly unusual compared to many other models, but it means that it sends water around the whole sink so it keeps the sink clean. I don’t want to go back to the “vertical jet” that we had before. The water comes out quickly, but not in the fierce jet that splashed water everywhere that we had in our old tap. The lever that turn the water on are sensibly placed a little higher than normal so you can clean under them easily. A similar Grohe tap is quite a lot more expensive, but this Bristan tap has given us everything we want for less money. We’ve been using for 2 months and are still happy.

I love them. Easy to fit. The quietist set I have ever had. Also, the flow is twice as fast as any other taps. I presume that it is because of the design of the spout. Highly recommend to anybody
It was more difficult getting under the sink than fitting the tap easy to install and works a trea
Looks good, good value for money and very easy to install.
I bought this to replace one of the cheaper taps that you can get on Amazon as I’ve had to replace those after 2-3 years. I’m hoping this will last longer. I found that the installation was straight forward and it’s good to be able to tighten it from the top. All the fittings are good quality and it came together without any leaks having tightened with moderate pressure. The action of the taps is very smooth, flow is quiet and good and the swiivel is equally smooth. So overall really good so far. It comes with the isolators and the tools necessary to fit it.

I didn’t realise it was supposed to be easyfit when i ordered it but this is only really true when you come to replace it, provided you use a Bristan tap from their easyfit range next time! Still no more difficult than fitting a regular tap and looks nice.
Bought at what l felt was a good price to replace a dripping tap that I could not get parts for.Now fitted and looks really good with an exellent flow rate far superior to previous tap.Paid just under 48 so very happy with purchase.All good.
I bought this to replace the kitchen sink tap which had become loose and the securing bolt had rusted solid. Getting the old tap out was a nightmare. Installing the new tap was a joy with most of the work being done from above. You still have to go underneath to connect the flexi pipes but that was quite easy. The only hard part was lining up the tap on the base to get the grub securing screws in. Make sure you do this before connecting the pipes up. Once installed it is possible to change the tap without changing the base as the base is common to all bristan taps. The construction of the tap is solid and it was a good value for money purchase.

Fantastic, easy to fit and great value for the price.
Excellent quality product as usual from Bristan and a 5 year warranty . I have fitted numerous taps but this is the first easy fit I have installed. Straight forward and easy to follow instructions.Would highly recommended and buy again. Amazons price was 20/30 cheaper than the mainstream plumbing stores.
Not quite as easy to install as it could be but that is more down to the way my kitchen sink is plumbed with feed and waste pipes, I still managed to fit it having never done pressure plumbing before and it is a lovely smooth operating tap
Great to have a tap in the kitchen with separate hot and cold, it’s really solid, tap moves from left to right with ease, like it’s on air, taps open and close the same, not stiff and all engineered very well indeed. lovely tap, I’m so pleased I’d highly recommend it.
Ignore all the bad reviews about the easy fit system, it’s great, just make sure you use a proper Allen key to tighten the grubs screws and do them up good an proper! There’s no way that taps coming off the base, I stood above it and pulled as hard as I could and it’s very sturdy. I also used a small amount of thread locker on the grub screws to be safe. I’m happy with my purchase and when I need a new one I can just slip this one off and pop another one on. Great system.
great mixer tap,the fittings make future maintenance hassle free
Not quite the do most of the work from the top, thick stone won’t allow the retainer to go through so still had to secure from the bottom. However a good design now the retaining system updated. Good quality tap.
I had bought a generic cheap monobloc tap prior to fitting this Bristan tap. The cheap tap lasted just over a month, I wish I’d gone for this in the first place rather than try and save a few quid. Yes it’s not the cheapest you’ll find but the quality is far better. The fitting of the tap was pretty straightforward I’ve never fitted one before but thought I’d give it a go. The instructions are clear and the Bristan website also has videos to guide you. The finish and quality of the tap is great, the design is really modern – very neat. As too is the stream of water when you run the tap it’s really precise. Not much more you can say really, really happy with the purchase.

Looks good, and very sturdy.
The hardest part was taking the old one off!
Very pleased with tap and quickness and ease to fit to sink. Only problem for me was it took a lot longer to alter the pipe work in order to re connect the tap.
Once installed the tap was ok but doesn’t seem to pump water through very well so have to giggle it from side to side to get washing up liquid to bubble up.
Our system is a low pressure one so all the taps I wanted weren’t suitable, as they were only for high pressure systems. I liked the look of this “Cashew” model and having checked the technical spec, which I also recommend you do to make sure the tap has a good flow rate, I then searched for the tap on Amazon. Another tip: don’t buy direct from Bristan as they’re very expensive. This tap was almost half the price it was on their site!!
I’m no plumber so I arranged for my plumber to fit, and I’m really glad I did! This tap has “Easy Fit” technology but there were times when I half expected the plumber to throw the towel in. There were problems removing the old tap then problems fitting the new tap together – some of the fixings are very tight and the plumber was concerned about tearing the washers on the new tap. Anyway, cut a long story short, the new tap was fitted and the Easy Fit technology means if we change taps again in future it should be much easier to fit a new one (providing it’s another Bristan I assume).
The tap looks great and works fantastically. It has a very good flow rate and the cold water comes out very fast but, unlike the old tap, it doesn’t splash everywhere as there’s a device in the end of this tap to make it a more controlled flow. The flow is so controlled that the hot water tap doesn’t even make lather when I add washing up liquid to the sink, which I like.
Anyway, I’m very happy with the tap and there’s no annoying drips anymore. Beware, some “swan neck” taps will always drip when turned off, it’s a design flaw of swan neck taps. But this tap does not drip at all. It’s great and feels very well made. I’m happy to recommend it!!

Quality taps and fairly but not very easy to fit. Styalish and great value for money. Would buy again.
Easy to install and should it break or corrode all it will take is the removal of one screw to replace with another easy install tap.
Once you’ve figured out the fitting instructions its a doddle. The triangle plastic piece in the box goes underneath the basin to firm the base mounting up, instructions are not included but can be found online.
Bristan was recommended to me by my plumber. He said the fitting was straightforward. It looks good, works well and was a good price.
This tap looks really good and was easy to install
Installed by plunber, great tap, water flows beautifully, solid, sleek design… Recommended…
Really happy with it. Easy to fit. Looks great. Good flow.
Really like the design of this tap. It swivels really easily and the angle of the spout means the water reaches all parts of the sink. Plus the fact I bought this at less than half price, when there were other sellers selling it for more than 100 made it a great buy.
A good well made tap easy to install. Took me an hour with taking off the cheap tap I had before. The wife complained the old tap had a very slow water flow. This new one is a lot better with a very good flow rate well worth the money.
A good product; price is a little more than the cheap ones from China etc, but seems to be well made for the extra money. I found the fitting very easy despite never having fitted a tap before. The only downside for me was the water tastes really bad after fitting it. I’m told (I hope!) the metallic taste will fade away as it builds up a limescale layer….

Quality tap from Bristan as would expect. Smooth action, looks good, feels good to use.
Chrome a good standard. Simple to fit.
It’s only easy fit if it goes into your sink not work top thicker hole like my one had to go into but that’s my fault
But it is a great tap works lovely we are really pleased
Good quality, water flow easy to control I find I use less water because the taps are so smooth to accurately control the flow
Absolutely Essential that you tighten the two grub screws at the base of the mixer tap , preferably with your own Allen key rather than the tool provided .
1/4 turn tap is a huge improvement over the old leaky one!
The tap itself is sturdy, looks nice and works well now installed. The supplied instructions don’t entirely match the parts supplied so I’m guessing that the product has had some minor changes but the instructions haven’t been updated. This didn’t cause any issues as long as you pay attention to what you’re doing.
In terms of the easy fit, you fit the base to the sink, then the flexis to the base and finally the tap attaches to the base. It made it easier in terms of not having a tap attached to flexis so the tap didn’t fall over/get scratched, however if like most sinks you don’t have much space underneath, then it’s quite awkward to tighten the flexis. Much easier to just use a standard fitting then use a tap spanner to secure the tap to the sink.

Fantastic solid quality so pleased, if I am picky would like the spout to aerate to avoid splashing but I will just buy it to replace. Fitting was so clever and robust.
Nice tap.. would buy it again, perfect height for under our cupboards in utility room
more simple to install but still difficult for one person like myself. I was impressed with its good looks and better quality than others I have had. I am very happy with this purchase and recommend it to others
Easy fit kit makes fitting the tap very easy, quality and finish I’ve found is always good by Brista
The tap once fitted does now turn a bit even though I was sure to tighten to what I thought was a good tension.
Water flow is very good, at least 3x that of the more expensive tap that it replaced, estimated at around 15litres per minute with our pressure.

We now have at least half a dozen of these taps. Great quality for the price, even our plumber has fitted one in his home. Thanks Bristan….
ease of fitting as a replacement for tap in position thank you.
This tap is a top quality item with an excellent quality finish and feel. Better still, I had purchased it to replace an old tap which I had put off due to it being in an extremely awkward position making installation very difficult. Due to an excellent design this unit was so easy to fit. Finally, the price and service was brilliant. Can absolutely recommend this item and supplier.
Excellent product, easy to install, clever method, all parts provided meet any scenario.
My husband is no plumber, but this didnt take long for him to fit. Looks fantastic in my kitchen, great price for a good name!
With the new easy quick fit installation fittings changing the tap took minutes and you install in from the top of the sink rather than laying flat on your back under the sink and fiddling around trying to undo rusty bolts.
Very pleased with purchase and works well.
Superb replacement for worn out mixer which only lasted 5 years. This mixer is really easy to fit with supplied parts
Pressure is much improved and a much smoother operation all round. Very nice style.
Fantastic tap good pressure good angled flow. Looks fab in my new kitchen.
