Strengths and trade-offs
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)
Quooker Fusion Square
What we like
- True 100°C boil from the same PRO3 tank as the Fusion Round
- Squared profile suits handleless and contemporary kitchens
- Seven finishes including patinated brass, gold and rose copper
- Quooker UK holds a high Trustpilot rating across 12,000+ reviews
Watch out for
- £1,250 buys boiling plus standard hot and cold only
- Filtered, chilled or sparkling water needs the separate CUBE module
- 2-year warranty on tap and tank (SWAP is a paid out-of-warranty tank swap)
