Strengths and trade-offs
Fohen Kyros 4-in-1 Pull Out
What we like
- Genuine flexible pull-out spout, rare on a boiling tap
- Full 4-in-1 including filtered cold
- WRAS approved with a 2-year warranty
- Sells at £549, below the £739 list price
Watch out for
- 98°C, not a true 100°C boil
- Brushed Brass finish costs £30 more
- Power draw not published by Fohen
- Younger brand, thinner long-term track record
Hanstrom Saxan 4-in-1
What we like
- Distinct square D-shape spout, Hanstrom's current square 4-in-1
- Touchscreen presets (75/85/90/95°C) for tea, coffee and noodles
- Genuine 4-in-1 with carbon-and-phosphate filtration (filtered boiling and filtered cold)
- Usually sells around £399, undercutting most premium 4-in-1s
Watch out for
- 75 to 98°C steaming hot, not a true 100°C boil
- Boiler warranty is only 1 year (tap 2 years); 3 years needs a paid extension (~£99)
- Permanent 'sale' pricing makes the £569 RRP a soft anchor
- Younger brand with thin published specs (no peak wattage)
