Something you may never give much thought to is what the best kitchen taps are. Your kitchen tap is one of the hardest working but most overlooked features in your home. You use it countless times every day for everything from your morning coffee to cleaning up after dinner, but beyond practicality, a well-chosen tap can elevate your kitchen’s style and functionality.
At Roma Interiors, we supply and install a carefully curated selection of premium kitchen taps. We offer the perfect balance of performance, design, and durability. Homeowners and our internal designers trust a few selected bands — Quooker, 1810, Blanco, and Abode — to deliver quality and innovation. Let’s dive into each one so you can see which is right for you.
Quooker – The Boiling Water Tap
If you’re looking for the ultimate tap which combines convenience and innovation, the Quooker boiling water tap is a must-have. As the first of its kind, Quooker delivers 100°C boiling water instantly, saving time and energy while adding a touch of luxury to your kitchen.
You also have the option of adding chilled and sparkling water to your tap with the Quooker CUBE system. This means that you will be able to have normal hot and cold water from your tap along with chilled, sparkling and boiling.
If you have not heard of Quooker before, you may be wondering how all of this could possibly come from one tap? Is it safe for children to be around due to the immediate boiling water feature? Well, you don’t need to worry. The tap has a safety handle where one must double-push-and-turn in order to get the boiling water. Otherwise it works just like a normal tap for the ‘normal’ water features.
Quooker is available in many stylish finishes such as Chrome, Gun Metal, Stainless Steel, Gold and Rose Copper. Ideal for busy households, quick cooking and anyone who loves streamlined living. Could this be the tap for you?
1810 – Modern Design
For those who appreciate sleek design and everyday practicality, 1810 taps combine aesthetics with performance. Designed in the UK and manufactured to high standards, 1810 offers a wide range of options to complement any kitchen design.
You have the option of choosing a matching sink to the tap which will ensure a well-finished look to your kitchen along with the wide range of colours that are offered. Each tap comes with a Neoperl Aerator which produces a non-splash, creamy flow and a selected few come with a soap dispenser built in to your sink – pure convenience!
1810 taps come in a variety of different ranges including QFit Flex, CRISTALITE-Inspired, Spirale, Henry-Holt and Traditional – all the more for you to choose from.
Whether you’re designing a minimalist kitchen or a warm, inviting family space, 1810 kitchen taps make the perfect finishing touch.
