Question Anyone got a "professional" style kitchen tap?

The one with the big hose and spring in an inverted U?

If so, how does *cough* your wife like it? (The tap )

I'm thinking they're a lot better to use than the ones with the retractable hose, but have just seen the prices of them


(Faint hope I'll get a sensible reply, but here goes...)

Well they look very fancy but what are you hoping it will do better for you than a standard tap?

They are designed for use with waste disposal units as you can hold the tap over the unit to wash the plates etc. well worth it if you have a waste disposal unit, not much point if not.

I do and I find the standard victorian style high level mixer works just fine with a Belfast sink:

Move and switch on/off instantly to full power with a shower jet, all with the same hand.

Maz, thanks, I never knew that
