Review: Beware they turn in different directions - It does confuse my visitors as it did us at first but each tap turns a different way. However they look good, the quality is great and I will be buying a third set. Perhaps the odd feature I mention is the way taps work these days, who knows!
Review: Problem under warranty - They look as good as in the photos and seem to be well-made. Only minor problem, which seems common to most/all modern taps, is that they aren't designed for older sanitary ware with square tap holes making centering and sealing the taps in the basin (and the matching mixer taps) difficult even with centering washers - about to have a second attempt at sealing the basin hot tap (with silicone), because, if it's operated with wet hands, odd drips work their way down the tap stem and the pipework making a damp patch on the timber floor (not a good idea!). UPDATE (10th May 2020). Silicone worked, but 18 months on we now have a serious problem: - the taps (matching bath and basin sets) are still under warranty. Water 'hammer' on the basin hot tap started about a month ago, no changes to the plumbing points the finger at that tap. Posted message on Bristan's site, automatic acknowledgement but otherwise no response after a fortnight. Bristan seem to have closed down completely at least for the duration of 'lock-down'. UPDATE (20/5/2020) Phone call from Bristan. Not closed down but only have a small number of people working during lock-down because of the need for social distancing. Despite an e-mail in confirming warranty registered, require proof of purchase again (easy enough, download the desertcart Invoice again). They will be sending me a pair of replacement valves (for me to fit under lock-down).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beware they turn in different directions
*by S***M on 5 October 2023*

It does confuse my visitors as it did us at first but each tap turns a different way. However they look good, the quality is great and I will be buying a third set. Perhaps the odd feature I mention is the way taps work these days, who knows!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality!
*by M***B on 21 July 2021*

Delighted with my purchase! Perfect match for our bathroom furniture - sort of 'cottagey'! Fitted them myself using an 'adjustable basin wrench' (£5.99) One tip: the finish is more polished than the image appears - which you might think is slightly dull. Bit pricey but they look very smart!
