Replacement HOT & Cold Victorian Style Cross Head TAP TOP Covers Chrome Plated 1/2" for Basinath & Kitchen Sink TAPS

If you've read any of my other reviews, you'll know that DIY is not my strong point.In any case, I had these installed in ten minutes - _and_ they work! (I may buy myself a tool belt now).There are folks in the house with weak hands, and they struggle with the usual "round" tap heads. All is extremely well now with these, and I have banked the brownie points.They look great, are superb value, and thoroughly recommended.

Fit well, easy to replace . Good value to repair taps without replacing ….no more leaks . The proof of the replacement will be in 12 months to see if they are robust .

Excellent taps fitted great

I am very pleased with these tap covers. My photo shows the newly installed tap covers, with the old tap covers and valves lying on the wash basin.Here is what I liked about the new tap covers:- Their quality is excellent. Very good quality chrome plate (on brass, so far as I could tel).- The style is traditional, exactly what was needed for my traditional style bathroom.- The covers have flats so that they can be removed with a suitable open-ended spanner. The old covers had no flats, so they had to be gripped with water pump pliers to undo them for maintenance, inevitably damaging their finish.- They have traditional valves using rubber tap washers. My water supply is at high pressure and ceramic valves make lots of noise due to turbulence within the tap. The valves supplied operate in complete silence, which is a valuable quality so far as I am concerned.The covers were quick and easy to mount. I made sure to apply a touch of silicone grease to the threads to ensure that they could be easily removed years in the future if and when the tap washers need replacement. In my case, the old covers could be removed easily but if your old covers are stuck in place because of corrosion, particularly likely if the old covers are made of zinc alloy, you will need to apply significant force using water pump pliers to remove them.

Chromed plated metal tops and shrouds with traditional brass valves, not plastic like some of the cheaper ones.Easy to fit and good quality for the price.

just what i ordered and fitted lenny

After a year the tap washers will start sticking so you may have to turn the tap near full on before the water runs. When you open it up to change the washer you'll find the rust.

Excellent

Deçu: - Capuchon en plastique chromé (pas en "laiton et de métal de haute qualité" comme dans la description ) - Le capuchon ne recouvre pas complètement l'intérieur - voir photo - Le capuchon est rond ((pas hexagonal comme sur la photo du vendeur) ne peut donc pas être dévissé avec une clé - Les frais de retour à mes frais selon le vendeur - vers l'Angleterre (15,90 € selon la Poste) Prix de l'article 16,99 € ! - Selon le vendeur "Remboursement uniquement en cas de fabrication défectueuse" ("Will Not Be Viable For A Refund Or Exchange Unless The Product Itself Is Faulty Due To Manufacturing (Manufacturer's) Defect. "Produit et vendeur à éviter à mon avis.

It could have come two days earlier ? but never the less perfect. thanks.
