Strengths and trade-offs
Franke Instante
What we like
- Current Franke 4-in-1: boiling, filtered, hot and cold from one tap
- Built-in filtration and tank included, no separate module needed
- Genuine 100°C boiling water
- 5-year manufacturer guarantee, longer than most rivals
Watch out for
- Filtered cold water, not actively chilled
- Narrow finish range at launch
- Newer model with a thinner independent-review record than the Omni it replaces
Quooker Classic Nordic Round Single Tap
What we like
- Period styling for a dedicated boiling tap, including a nickel finish
- Adds 100°C boiling without replacing a much-loved classic mixer
- Same PRO3 tank and genuine 100°C boil as the rest of the range
Watch out for
- Boiling water only, so it does not replace your mixer tap
- £1,050 for boiling alone is premium against a 3-in-1
- Three finishes only: chrome, stainless steel or nickel
