SÄUBER® Kitchen Sink Mixer Tap Black Brass 360° Degree Swivel Single Hole with Pull Out Spray Kitchen Sink Taps Pot Filler Dual Spout

The media could not be loaded. My use:I bought this to replace a certain German supermarket one with similar looks. That tap stopped working properly - only a dribble of water would come out after only 6 months of use because the cartridge had clogged and was not replaceable or cleanable. It was also a lot harder to fit and remove than this tap.I bought this tap as it's supposed to be able to replace the cartridge, rather than the whole tap!Installation:This probably only took 30 minutes to install after removing the old tap.The photo shows how I have installed it.The black rubber part is beneath the plastic support part (pictured) with the threaded rods going through it into the bottom of the tap. This would normally have the metal disc (of a similar shape) beneath it but the plastic part came with and so I decided to install that for more support.I've had this plastic part on other taps which have had a threaded collar screw into the bottom of the tap and another screw on plastic nut go on the threaded collar to secure it to the sink. I think it's a bit of an unusual set up on this tap but it works.The threaded bars screw into the bottom of the tap and the two brass hexagonal nuts tighten onto these securing the metal disc to secure the tap.It feels robust enough with no movement.Threaded hoses:It's worth noting that I've used 2 different threaded hoses to extend to my water supplies. The tap comes supplied standard hot and cold threaded connectors.I bought my connectors separately through amazon (you'll be able to find these looking at my other reviews). The straight parts make it easy to screw into the tap first without kinking. They can then be screwed onto the water supplies.To identify Hot from Cold connections is easy - just look at the holes and the Hot & Cold writing on the tap handle. This isn't always obvious with other taps.Functions:You have the main handle that turns the tap on or off from the small tap. This has a smaller handle on the end which can be used to control the flow (not available on all taps). The larger tap with the spray function can be operated only when the big tap is turned on and when it's rod handle is pressed inwards.This is nice and high pressure and better than the other tap I removed even when it was working. It will no doubt come in use when rinsing dirty plates etc.My mum first whinged about it saying I just want to be able to use the tap as she was confused by the different knobs, but you don't have to turn all the taps closed like I have in the video, you can leave the smaller tap's handle open so it's at the right pressure without affecting that of the rinser head. The rinser head pressure isn't adjustable.I didn't fancy getting one of the extending hoses where you need loads of room under the sink for a counter weight.You can unhook the rinser to angle the tap and there's resistance stopping you from extending it too low from the chrome spring.Design:I like the functionality of the tap but the only thing to be aware of is the distance that the smaller tap extends into the sink. For me it's ok but it does cause you to lean further into the sink when washing your hands etc.Finish & Cleaning:It's nice and modern chrome with a shiny black part on the rinser and all appears to be high quality.The hose is a grey colour and doesn't stand out.The spray heads have silicone nozzles to help with easy cleaning and the smaller tap has a plastic filter than can be gained access to by unscrewing the chrome end of the tap.Price:At £60 it's a great price. Other DIY places are still charging huges amounts for these taps and most don't have great reviews. The German one cost £40 so this tap's still an affordable purchase and will hopefully last longer.Summary:The tap feels solid.I've only owned it a few days so time will tell if it lasts or not and I will update my review as necessary.So far all seems good.I just hope that the cartridge filter is replaceable (since the German one also claimed it was but was resin-ed in) as I'm in a high limescale area.

This is an absolute gem of a mixer tap. It’s really well made, very robust. The various components and actions have a quality feel to them and at the price I think you can’t go wrong. I was looking at a similar item in Homebase that was 3 times the price and if I’m honest it didn’t have that quality feel that this item does. Delivery was promised in about 10 days, it arrived after 5. It’s really well packaged so no concerns about damage. I’ve taken off 1 star for ease of install because I felt the seal at the base of the tap, where it joins the sink, could be a little larger. I fitted this to a ceramic sink which has a hole with a radius edge and the size of the tap seal was only fractionally larger. This meant that getting the seal aligned with no leaks was challenging, but not impossible. Once installed and leak tested I couldn’t be happier. Looks fantastic and does its job well at a price to keep the bargain hunters happy.

So far, I'm really impressed with this tap, it's easy to use and quite sturdy. One of the features I like is that the water from the pull out spray is released only while pressing, which means it saves me water because previously, I usually let the tap run while washing dishes.Good product, value for money and with 10 year cover. It's a no brainer.

Loved the design and looks amazing. However it slowly drips during non use from lever mechanism and this is my second tap to replace first that does this. Shower head leaked from all directions on 2 occasions initially but tightening shower head has solved this initial problem for now. Very disappointed as it looks beautiful and is a perfect practical design except for slow drip and tap overhang bar imo needs to be a little longer as quite close to sink edge despite being fitted right upto edge of sink.

This tap looks as if it costs 3 times the price and compares very well to expensive DIY store offerings.Very easy to fit and works well with my low pressure gravity fed system and has increased the flow from my old tap considerably.

Great affordable well made mixer tap purchased to replace our old leaking tap. Great dual feature of swivel pot filler (normal) tap and separate spray feature which only activates when the lever is pressed. This tap is a bit shorter than our old tap, but I like the compact design.Easy to fit with the correct tools.Update after 4 months use.This tap started dripping (when in use) at the tap swivel point. Despite contacting the seller I did not receive a response. After 11 months, I have had to replace this tap due to the dripping.Amazon have stated it is not eligible for a return/refund despite it supposedly having a 10 year guarantee.

Great

The actual Tap is excellent however I can't get it fitted due to the brass fixing from Tap to under fix under sink is too short by 10mm. I have contacted Plumbworld and they have contacted Sauber but they can't provide me with a longer fixing or an alternative.They are going to arrange a refund and collection.
