We have basin mounted taps in one bathroom and wall mounted in another. The taps we bought are from the same range and using them I find to have little difference. However personally if I was building again I would have the basin mounted for a single reason... if the tap needs replacing in time, then there is no need to rip a hole in the wall to do it. Either type of tap requires you to check your basin and mirror heights so there's no interference particularly if you have shaving cabinets like we did. Another thought to consider from the male perspective... our men prefer a swivel spout as mentioned from other houzzers for easy cleanup when shaving and perhaps a little extra hand room for larger hands. Good luck choosing ;-)

Very unique. Hope you found it!

I've been playing around with a pantry location. Originally, I was going to move the pantry into the laundry with some custom shelving and cut the laundry space in half. Now, Im thinking of cutting into the study area and building a wall there, and converting the new space into a long and narrow walk in pantry. Either that or build half a wall and put built in shelving in the study. Building the extra wall will reduce the need to cover in the door way that is currently in place and instead utilising it. Thoughts? p.s. this isnt too scale.

We have a zip built into our ceasar stone bench top next to our sink. We opted for the font (the mesh waste) and riser (it attaches to the bottom of the zip to give it extra height) We have instant boiling water (you can only use it when you press the safety switch located under the boiling water switch) chilled filted water and sparkling water. The sparkling water is sensational. We worked out the ratio and it is of equal value (replacing the canister as to buying X amount of bottles of mineral water over the same period) and we drink a lot of it (we are a family of 5) The unit itself sits under the sink and is smaller than a case of beer, and next to it is a C02 canister (resembling a small tube) We now don't have any empty water bottles in our fridge or cupboards, we no longer have a shelf full of mineral water (the filter water is so pure and clean) and I don't have a kettle on display day and night!! Yes the initial outlay is expensive but it looks fantastic is easy to use and I would highly recommend it.
