Zen style design
This miracle of plumbing will be a real find for fans of meditation and introspection in search of their Zen. The design of the Jacob Delafon Toobi E8959 cascading washbasin tap shows the influence of Japanese motifs, inspired by ancient rock gardens, in which a natural source of water was an indispensable attribute. The simple cylindrical shape of the tap body, leverless joystick and spout with an oblique cut resembles bamboo stalks, creating the complete illusion of a stream flowing from a wooden core. For the best customization of the interior, the device is complemented by a set of interchangeable inner liners for the spout (aerators) in three colours — white, black and green.
Features and high price
At the base of the case there is a smooth transition with a thickened leg to increase the mounting surface. The tap made of brass, despite its elegant shape and small height of 202 mm, turned out to be quite massive — 1.6 kg. The small flow height of the man-made source of 101 mm negates the splashing of the “waterfall” from the sink wall. A disc ceramic shut-off valve with a pressure limiter up to 8 L / min is responsible for adjusting the temperature and water throughput. A bottom valve and flexible hoses should be added to the additional equipment of the device. The recommended price of more than 200 euros set by the manufacturer is quite high for such a simple device.
About coatings and alternative model
The tap has two types of execution: with an external covering from chromium or nickel. From a practical point of view, most often, preference is given to products with a chrome surface due to a higher mechanical and chemical resistance than nickel. But, with a brushed nickel finish, the French manufacturer gives a 25-year warranty on this device, emphasizing this type of coating as a strong point of this model. As part of this series, a higher model Jacob Delafon Toobi E8960 with an elongated spout but without a bottom valve is also available, which will cost about 50 euros more.
