Square Bathroom Taps

Square Bathroom Taps

Looking around at new ranges of square bathroom taps and I came across the Navona collection which is a brand new range which I had not noticed before, it has a lever that is flush to the top of the handle which is a slightly unusual approach but very neat in design, although this is a small range it has every thing that is required for a bathroom, in the collection is either a pair of basin taps or a  mono block basin mixer, there is a bidet mixer and for the bath the choice of a separate pair of bath taps a bath filler or a bath shower mixer.

In the picture to the left is the mono bloc basin mixer and a bath filler, to know the quality of the product the handles have to be smooth in operation which is generally a good test of the quality brassware and these are certainly up the the standard I would expect.

Value for money is where this range really stands out the basin taps come in at just £55.00 with the basin mixer just £63.00 even the bath shower mixer is well priced at £156.00 which makes this range my choice for quality at a price, if you would like to view the whole range on offer then just click here.

Arina bathroom taps and showers

The Hudson Reed Arina range of bathroom taps and showers are bucking the trend with the oval body and the curved rectangular spout an unusual combination to say the least but it seems to work well together.

The Arina mono bloc basin mixer from Hudson Reed (pictured left) and the separate hot and cold basin taps are the only options for the basin, and for the bath there are more options available to you for instance you could use the separate bath taps a bath filler or a bath shower mixer or the Arina free flow bath pop up waste.

The Hudson Reed Arina showers to match the taps are made to compliment the oval design with a back plate mimicking the handles perfectly, the choices are the Arina thermostatic shower valve or the same shower valve with an extra option of a diverter , or if you require to operate two devices at the same time then use the Arina triple thermostatic shower valve as you get two separate flow controls.
