Kitchen Mixer Taps

Monobloc sink mixers that drop into a single 35mm tap hole and blend hot and cold through one spout. The range covers plain swan-neck mixers, twin-lever models and pull-out spray versions, in chrome and brushed steel.

A mixer is the default choice for a modern kitchen because it gives you one spout to fill and rinse under, and a swivel so you can move it clear of the bowl when you are working. Spout height matters more than people expect — a tall swan neck makes filling stockpots and vases far easier, but needs headroom if your sink sits under a window.

Points worth checking

• Spout reach: measure from the tap hole to the centre of the bowl so the water lands where you want it.
• Swivel range: 360° is useful over a double bowl, 180° is fine for a single.
• Handle position: side-lever models are easier to reach when the tap sits tight against a wall.
• Finish: brushed steel hides water marks better than polished chrome in a hard water area.

Also in this range: all kitchen taps, pull-out spray taps and twin lever kitchen taps.

Frequently asked questions

What is a monobloc kitchen tap?

A monobloc tap is a single unit that fits through one hole in the sink or worktop and carries both the hot and cold feeds internally, mixing them before they reach the spout. It is the standard fitting on modern kitchen sinks.

Are these taps suitable for a low pressure system?

Some are and some are not, so check the water pressure figure on the individual product page. Gravity-fed systems with the cold tank in the loft often sit below 0.5 bar at the tap, which is not enough for every mixer.
