It suits a countertop bowl or a basin with no tap hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe trade-off is that \u003cstrong\u003eall the plumbing has to be buried in the wall\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the concealed valve body has to be set at the right depth and height before the wall is boarded and tiled. That means deciding on this tap early — it is not a swap you can make later without opening up the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spout projects \u003cstrong\u003e213mm\u003c\/strong\u003e from the wall. Set the height so it clears the rim of your basin with room to get your hands under, and check that projection lands water in the middle of the bowl rather than the back edge — measure your basin before fixing the valve position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA stud wall needs noggins to fix the valve to. A solid wall needs chasing out. Neither is difficult, but both need doing before the finish goes on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWater pressure\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKartell rate this tap \u003cstrong\u003esuitable for low water pressure systems\u003c\/strong\u003e — it will run from as little as 0.2 bar. That means it works on a gravity-fed tank and cylinder as well as on mains, combi or unvented pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLiving with it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eceramic disc cartridge\u003c\/strong\u003e with quarter-turn operation gives full flow from a small movement of the lever, and is far less prone to dripping than a washer tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatt black is a powder-coated finish rather than plating. It looks superb against a white basin, but it is less forgiving than chrome: limescale and toothpaste splashes show as pale marks on a dark surface, so it wants wiping down more often. Never use an abrasive cream or a limescale remover on it — those strip the coating rather than the deposit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair it with the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/kartell-k-vit-nero-round-wall-mounted-bath-spout-matt-black-tap416nr\"\u003eNero Round wall mounted bath spout\u003c\/a\u003e for a consistent look across basin and bath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe same tap in other finishes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNero Round is the matt black version of a design Kartell also make in polished chrome as \u003cstrong\u003eKore\u003c\/strong\u003e and in brushed brass as \u003cstrong\u003eOttone\u003c\/strong\u003e.
