Rank #4 in Best Kitchen Taps 2026: 10 Ranked, and Where the Numbers Clash
GRIFEMA Single Lever Kitchen Sink Mixer Tap
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The GRIFEMA G4008 is a single-lever kitchen mixer tap with a 360° swivel spout, priced at £26.99 and placed fourth in this guide. Its listing carries 4.3 out of 5 from 15,576 ratings, and the five bars of its rating histogram read 65, 17, 7, 4 and 7 — which adds up to 100, not 15,576, so those bars are shares of the rating count rather than the count itself. It is the kind of listing where the small print is worth reading.
The oddities here are in the labels rather than the figures. The brand field says GRIFEMA; the manufacturer field says IBERGRIF GRIFERIAS SL. The title describes a "Stainless Steel Chrome" tap while the bullets say it is crafted entirely from food-grade stainless steel — the listing never separates the finish from the material. It is sold partly on its plumbing credentials, with a 1/2" adapter supplied for UK systems, yet the country of origin field reads España. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing as published; we have not tested this tap.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Works as you'd expect a tap to work with water coming out of it.In terms of install its honestly super easy, I have literally never changed a tap in my life and 1 YouTube video later and a pair of molegrips I had changed the tap and not flooded the house.I had to use the adapters it comes with which I believe is a UK thing but that was super easy to sort as they literally screw in.”

How is it meant to save water and energy?
The bullets describe a cold-start design that draws cold water without activating the hot water system, plus an aerator that mixes air with water.
Where does it sit in the rankings?
The listing prints 2,025 in DIY & Tools and 4 in Touch On Kitchen Sink Faucets, while two other taps in this guide both print the identical "1 in Touch On Kitchen Sink Faucets" line.
