HansgroheMetropol Single Bath Flush-Mounted with Lever Handle, matt Black Focus Kitchen tap 240 with Pull Out Spray and 150° Swivel Range, Chrome 31815000, Spout Height 240Mm

The tap was in perfect condition, box was a bit damaged but who cares? Works beautifully, easy to install and looks the business. Delivery took a few days, not beyond the promised timescale, seemed like a long time but that’s only because we get so used to near instant delivery from Amazon!

Already having a number of Hansgrohe taps in the house, we thought that this would prove a good replacement for a failing Adobe tap. We were not wrong. The tap is a delight to look at and to use. The smooth lines are a pleasure to touch, and the flow of water just right. Highly recommended at a very good price.

Got the tap today, haven’t installed yet as the description of the product is not accurate. It’s polished, rather than brushed as described. Interestingly, some other hansgrohe kitchen taps are noted as “shiny” on Amazon. To me this is “shiny”, and brushed is equivalent to matt. Haven’t decided yet whether to return it or not, but the product didn’t meet expectations upon unboxing.Update. I changed the rating from 2 to 4 stars assuming it’s still a good quality product and the discount off MSRP is good, but the product itself is en route back to Amazon. I ordered a different model from stainless steel (Talis M54) hoping it won’t be “shiny” as described but proper brushed steel.

By far the best tap I have owned, a bit pricey but that's fine if the quality is there. solid, functional, not just pretty, easy to clean. Water does not splash all over the place on landing in the sink.Considering how often the tap is used daily, well worth it.

Thank you Amazon for supplying this tap at an affordable price - just! I agonised long and hard before ordering for 3 reasons. First the cost is high considering I don’t have a designer kitchen and it was to be fitted to a 25 year old stainless steel sink, second, the single lever is on the right and I am left handed and third, is that spray just a gimmick? I am thrilled to report that this tap is worth every penny! I wash up by hand and this tap makes the job so much easier with the spray set to aerate for the prewash rinse, this setting also produces a massive amount of bubbles from the washing up liquid, I use less than half. Though some reviewers said the tap could be the installed with the lever on the left my plumber installed it on the right because that allows a 150 degree swivel which I need for a 11/2 bowl sink. It is no problem because the tap sits so high there is no obstruction to reaching across and you can see the red/blue gauge for water temperature. It runs off a combi boiler and the pressure is fine. Whilst it was bought for practical reasons it is solid and the quality is evident so it doesn’t half smarten up the kitchen! It’ll be Hansgrohe for me from now on.

This is a very sturdy tap and the look of it really suits my new kitchen. The spray function is very easy to operate, and the tap is high enough that I can easily put tall vessels beneath it, although the pull-out hose is also useful for filling taller items. I do have a slight problem in that the tap swivels back to the left too readily rather than stay in the position that I turn it to, but I suspect this is something to do with the way it has been installed and hopefully can be sorted out by my plumber. I do recommend this tap and I'm very glad I didn't go with the option recommended by my kitchen designer and which would have cost in excess of £400; I doubt that her recommendation would have been any better than this Hansgrohe tap.

easy to install

Worth the price with such good quality. Water flow very smoothly. easy to adjust temperature.
