This is the \u003cstrong\u003ebath shower mixer\u003c\/strong\u003e: a deck-mounted bath tap with a diverter and a shower handset on a flexible hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it does\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt fills the bath like a normal bath filler, and the diverter sends water to the handset instead — so you can shower over the bath, rinse hair, or clean the bath without a separate shower installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you already have a separate shower and only need to fill the bath, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/kartell-k-vit-pure-bath-filler-chrome-tap052pr\"\u003ePure bath filler\u003c\/a\u003e costs less and keeps the line cleaner — which matters more on a sharp-edged range like this, where a coiled hose is visually at odds with the styling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIt's a heavy fitting\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003e3.72kg\u003c\/strong\u003e this is one of the heaviest deck-mounted taps in the Kartell brassware range — solid brass rather than thin castings.

Being straight: on gravity-fed plumbing the handset will be a gentle spray rather than a powerful shower. That's your water pressure, not the tap. If you want a proper shower over the bath, you need a pump.\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 and is far less prone to dripping than a washer tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSquare profiles give limescale more corners to sit in than round ones, so in a hard water area a regular wipe keeps it looking sharp.
