How to Choose a Kitchen or Laundry Mixer
It wasn't that long ago that kitchens were a pokie little room at the back of the house where the meals came from. These days of course the modern kitchen is given the priority and space it deserves as an important social space for family and guests to gather and mingle. Sculleries are now common design features and laundries, once overlooked as a utility workroom, are another opportunity to express some design style and flair.
'Gooseneck' Spouts
We use this term to describe the up and over style of spout which by design creates a useful space below and behind the aerator - super useful for large pots, jugs buckets, you name it.
Extractable Spouts
As the term suggests, these mixers have a pull out or extractable spray head. It might be have a single or dual spray function, it may pull out of the spout or it may pull out of the bench.
Dual or Single Spray Functions
Dual spray functions refer to a second shower like spray pattern, which switches from the common aerator type outlet. The additional velocity of the spray is useful for rinsing down pots, vege's or even just the sink.
Compacts
Sometimes, like in sculleries and apartments for example, space limitations require a tap that's not so tall or far-reaching.
