My google-foo is lacking on this one...

We're installing a very fancy sink with "statement" mixer tap-it is going to look the absolute business. However the "client" has now decided that a boiling water tap may actually be of use, and I do actually like them but it seems that the market has moved into the all in one type of model.

Fair enough but I'd really like something totally different and smaller so it could sit at one end of the sink and not detract from the main event of the main tap. This is the sink;



I'm thinking something sat where the rinsing hose is in the picture.

Quooker - ours is separate to the main tap, and very useful. Under counter heating canister is nice and compact too.

Zip hydrotap, this has been my main search. Unfortunately I just think they look a little...crap?
They do the Hydrotap Elite which does look better/more modern but it's still coming in at over a grand trade.

Quooker, I can't as far as I can see, purchase the smaller individual tap by itself? It simply comes with the bigger tap as a twin package.

We have a Franke one - no issues. It isn't a separate tap though, it's part of the main mixer.

My kitchen guy is pushing this idea as well. His reasoning is that it gives you a solid surface to rest the pan/bowl etc while you fill it.

There's still a few new single taps on google and eBay. Didn't realise they'd stopped doing them brand new. Now might be a good time to buy if they're updating the range. Currently sipping a quooker brewed tea smile
