Onoff Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I saw Moretti from Screwfix getting a slating on here the other day. Could these be better/worse? 5-year g'tee. Maybe if on a budget etc: https://www.lidl.co.uk/en/Non-Food-Offers.htm?articleId=5164 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Harris Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 If it's in Lidl can you get a feel of it to see how heavy and well-made it seems? The really crappy basin mixer that I fitted to our old bathroom basin fell apart after just a couple of years, and although it didn't come from Screwfix (it was from Victoria Plumb) I'm sure it was Chinese junk - not made of proper brass as it corroded and fell apart internally. The replacement I bought from ebay, of all places, turned out to be around twice the weight, and I'm guessing that's largely down to it being made from decent brass. It's far better quality, and is showing no signs of giving any trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divorcingjack Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 If you don't mind picking up, there are loads of branded taps and plumbing gubbins on gumtree. I've picked up a load of hansgrohe stuff for our place for buttons. Always see hansgrohe/grohe taps on there. Normally, annoyingly, too far away for me to pick up! Perhaps worth a look?
