Bristan BTZ 1/2 C Blitz Basin Taps - Chrome

Great quality tap, installed an identical one around 3 years ago. I don't like to leave a review before I've had chance to fully test a product. We have this tap in our downstairs toilet so it receives a high level of use. To date the tap works perfectly and doesn't have any marks on the chrome. As a result we are now in the process of replacing the taps across our other two bathrooms to match.

Great price compare other places. Very good tap

The Bristan BTZ BAS C Blitz Basin Mixer is a sleek and high-quality tap. The chrome finish looks modern and elegant, and it operates smoothly with excellent water flow. Installation was straightforward, and it’s been working flawlessly. Perfect for upgrading any bathroom!

Nice tap but water flow could be better and we are on high pressure. The tap we had before gave a stronger flow but this one is more modern looking.

Good quality

Quality product, plumber happy to install them... No issues at all..

I’ve been really pleased with the Bristan basin tap. It looks great, was straightforward to install, and works smoothly without any issues. It’s a solid choice for anyone wanting a modern and reliable addition to their bathroom.

UPDATE 2022: Had a set of these since 2017 and it was 2021 when the hot's cartridge (presumably) caused a worsening leak that got to the point where it was on when it was off! Well, there are similar replacements at Wickes and Screwfix for just over half the price (with vastly lower warranties), but those don't have replaceable aerators (see below for ones that fit well). So I would amend my previous review and say "Yes, this is a nice looking tap and they seem to be well made, but I got them for <£40 in 2017 and they've never been that cost effective since and they're currently more than double that at Homebase. They absolutely don't seem to last and they really should, 5 years 'warranty' is woefully inadequete if Bristan even honour it (we avoided the hassle of that route since it was 4 years down the line). Is it so hard to design a tap to last 15-20 years minimum? I would suggest selecting another model because if you find yourself needing taps that match these, your alternative options aren't great, it's either these or compromising and getting these will thus 'lock you in' to replacing them like for like, as I fear we might have to as well at some point. Original review: The build quality of these taps is excellent. I particularly like how they've been hollowed out inside. They have a lovely chrome shine to them and come up nicely with some polish when cleaning the bathroom (bad idea to get cif or anything more abrasive than soap on them if you care about keeping the chrome intact for a long time.) A daily wipe down with a damp cloth and some liquid soap is more than enough. The aerator ends are OK but they let a lot of water flow through (the flow is heavy), so we swapped them out for these which I can attest do fit despite not being exactly 20mm (more like 19mm; it's a bit of a minefield). Tap Aerator 20mm male, 4ltr per minute, water, energy saving reduce bills chrome and the result is a nice narrower and foamy flow that drastically reduces water consumption. I would have given 5 stars but for the life of me, I can't seem to get either handle to attach perfectly parallel to their faucet ends :( Very irritating. EDIT: After 4 years, the hot tap now leaks incessantly. I'll try tightening the ceramic cartridge at some point soon, but would now advise people shop elsewhere. Maybe the vastly more expensive Bristan taps might deliver what they promise, but this particular set of bathroom sink taps don't live up to what they offer. These have a 5 year warranty, get something longer lasting. Disappointing stuff!
