washers supplied with taps disintegrate

published

after fitting the wall stops purchased from Bunnings I tested the shower only to discover the white plastic washers supplied with the stops had disintegrated 10 minutes after installation so I checked the washing machine stops in which the washers had also disintegrated also the disclaimer that voids the warrantee if not installed by a plumber was glued inside the box making it difficult to see, not honest!

Purchased in March 2021 at Bunnings Warehouse.

Appalling product

published

I bought this product in February 2018 and on Christmas Eve water started to pour out of the underside, when I went back to Bunnings I was told there was only a 12 month warranty. I won’t be buying an Estilo product ever again.

estilo water tap

published

I bought this tap from Bunnings 2 days ago . plumber installed it and it is a piece of crap. pressure very low and the cold and hot hoses supplied were like cigarette paper. the 20 yr old hoses were much better than the supplied hoses. I paid $50 for it thinking it would do the job but unfortunately it was trash straight from the garbage truck. keep away from it cause your plumber will charge you even though you will have no functional unit sitting above the sink. Last time I bought another tap for the toilet from Bunnings every time I went to use it, it gave me a shower and watered all the ceiling. keep away from Bunnings for all plumbing accessories. Ill be taking the tap back to them asap.

Wish I'd read these reviews before purchasing

I bought a Estilo WELS 4 Star 7.5L/min 40mm Allana Cast Basin Mixer from Bunniings. It worked fine for about 10 days but now one side has very low pressure. I checked its not the feeding hoses with a blockage- its the tap. I tried swapping around the hot & cold hoses feeding the tap, same problem. The tap just has very low pressure on the left side. I am very disappointed, it's such a poor product!!!

I Agree With the One-Star Reviews

published

My sprayer model lasted 18 months (six beyond the warranty). The plastic that holds the sprayer on broke. Gluing with super-glue wouldn't last long if at all. I do not recommend this brand.

Absolute rubbish

published

I purchased an Estila sink mixer that did not work from installation. These are cheap for a reason. I purchased a Dorf mixer that works perfectly. Do not purchase a mixer tap for less than $100. Estila taps are guaranteed for one year only, Dorf are guaranteed for 10 years. I would never purchase any Estila products again. The Bunnings staff didn’t question a credit as they get many returned.

Do not buy

published

On installation one of the lines blew off the tap as soon as the plumber turned the water on. It was repaired by the plumber and worked ok for 7 months until it started to leak and broke again this time at a different part. Do not buy it is cheap rubbish

Operates fine

Easy to fit and seems good value compared to some European models.
The Zucchetti it replaced has a price tag of $299.
At $35 there was no choice to be made.

Mixer tap with 35mm cartridge. Cheapest n prettiest compare to other brands. Only disappointment is one of the hose that came with it is bit short. It just manage to fit into an old basin faucet hole of 30mm.

Estilo quality is not good

published

We have 2 Estilo units purchased after the original Dorf units started to leak. The Estilo taps were installed in both kitchen and laundry facilities and in both cases they leaked. The design relies on a moulded seal at the base of a cartridge and if it is not correctly located on two location pegs it will leak. The Dorf unit is rather more expensive and relies on special spring loaded rubber seals pushing against a special stainless steel sphere. The Dorf unit eventually leaked after 10 years but the Estilo leaked on day one in both cases.
We are happy to pay for quality but it is hard to find.

12 month warranty, broken after less than 1.5y

published

Sadly I've had the exact same experience as the previous reviewers. The thing died just out of warranty, and in the most peculiar fashion, I would never have expected: along the underside of the spout, where I suppose a poorly made welding seam must have corroded. I'm not even primarily angry about the money, but the mess and time it takes to install a new tap. So yes, even though we rent, I went for a decent tap this time, which comes with a 10 year warranty.

Cheap... for a reason

published

When I bought my Allana mixer tap just over 3 years ago from Bunnings and at the time I wondered why anyone would pay real money for a tap. Unfortunately it recently sprung a leak and similar to the other review mine was from the top of the spout.

Not wanting to repeat the same I paid a bit more for a better quality tap. The competitor has a 10 year yr warranty instead of 1 year. The water has more pressure, less noise and the quality just feels so much better.

It might be a good prices for a rental but if you're considering skimping out on an Estilo just remember "a poor man pays twice"

Disappointed

published

Bought this kitchen mixer tap in December 2012 and after just 3 years it started leaking, not from the cartridge but from under the stem of the tap. Presumably corrosion on the inside of the stem had eaten through so the tap needed to be replaced.

I think this is a Bunnings branded product - cheap stuff but at only $29.00 I guess I couldn't expect much more but if you want a mixer tap that will last more than 2 or 3 years look elsewhere.

We have purchased an Estilo side lever sink mixer with an aerator in order to connect a mobile dishwasher to the aerator thread. On reading the instructions they advise "Do not connect dishwasher or filter to aerator". Can anyone tell me the reason for this?
