kitchen bridge mixer taps (2 holes) with hose?

9 replies

I am looking at getting a bridge mixer tap for a butler sink ie the taps have 2 holes in worktop. Can you get them with a hose. Only thing I have seen is Perrin and Rowe with separate hose which are expensive.

Does anyone know any other options - hose does not need to be separate

thank you very much - wow it certainly has a hose and a much better price. However I was thinking of small pull out hose so unobtrusive as i want a period look with butler sink. I cant see one on John Lewis website other than the one pictured above at about £800. Do you know the brand?

no but you can get the one you linked to here a bit cheaper.

Thanks, yes that was where I had originally found it. Dont really want to spend that much!

We did the same sort of looking and ended up with a Qooker in the kitchen (no flexi hose though I wish we had) and a tap with a spray in the utility - that is more utilitarian looking.

I think you won't get a pull out that easily in a two bridge mixer as the supply line to my one hole mixer dangles down the mounting hole to hang inside the cabinet in my one hole mixer.

When you extend the pull out hose it moves. It would be a very awkward cable path via a bridge set up.

I have a ridiculously expensive kitchen tap (but I love it).

I decided we needed a bridge tap, as I have to have one of the levers over the draining board, which for the 'usual' mixer tap means scrabbling around amongst whatever is on the draining board to operate the tap, which I hate.

Some of them seemed v. expensive, and I struggles to find any I liked, partly because I wanted decent sized levers, and even the expensive ones had very short guarantees. I decided against one with a hose in the end, as I felt it was a weak point that would be vulnerable to damage. I went for this one, not as expensive as the very posh ones, and a far longer guarantee, because it's made for more industrial/medical use. It looks fantastic, polished, and robust, though we're waiting to fit it so I can't comment on how it operates yet. They do one with even longer levers.

thank you. that explains why you cant have a hose in bridge taps then.

does anyone other than perrin and rowe offer a separate hose?

How can there be so many decisions in a new kitchen - it is never ending!

I am looking for period look bridge taps with a separate hose as OPs photo above. Does anyone know any suppliers other than Perrin and Rowe? Thanks
