Strengths and trade-offs
Franke Omni
What we like
- True 100°C confirmed in Trusted Reviews testing
- Built-in filter delivers filtered cold water without add-on
- Spout body stays cool even during prolonged dispensing
- 4.2L tank larger than most rivals under £1,200
Watch out for
- Filter cartridges cost roughly £50 every 6 months
- Owners report flow slowdown after 2 years in hard-water areas
- Heating tank replacement reported at around £400 out of warranty
- Low mains pressure (under 1.5 bar) causes noticeable dribble
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
