Bathroom fittings comparison — 2026 edition
Find the faucet or shower
that really matches the bathroom you have
Bathroom, kitchen and shower faucets, shower systems and heads, toilet seats and flush valves, sinks, drains and traps, mirrors and vanity units — and the angle valves, hoses and silicone bought a week later. Compared on what actually decides whether they fit and last: the center distance, the faucet hole diameter, the flow rate with the pressure it was measured at, the cartridge size you will have to find again in five years. Priced on your own country's Amazon.

Bathroom fittings, family by family
Bathroom fittings first, the brand after
25 families of fittings, 0 of accessories and spares. Each hub below compares one of them, with a plain answer to “what should I actually buy?” at the top — and the buying mistake that category invites.
- Bathroom faucets One hole, 1⅜ in (35 mm), and supply lines long enough for your countertop
- Tall bathroom faucets for vessel sinks The height is set by your bowl, not by taste
- Waterfall faucets An open spout is louder, wetter, and harder to descale
- Touchless sensor faucets Where the power comes from is the whole question
- Pull-down kitchen faucets The hose retracts by weight, and the weight has to fit
- 3-way filter kitchen faucets A separate waterway, and a filter you keep buying
- Tub faucets & fillers Floor-mounted or deck-mounted, and the valve may not be in the box
- Shower systems and columns Valve, trim and heads in one box — and the valve goes in the wall
- Rain shower heads Size is a claim about your pressure, not about luxury
- Handheld shower heads The 1/2-inch arm fits everything, so judge the spray, the hose and the flow
- Linear shower drains The drain base and the waterproofing decide it, not the grate
- Soft-close toilet seats Round or elongated, measured on the bowl you already own
- Bidet toilet seats Non-electric or electric, and they are different products
- Toilet flush valves and fill valves The part that is actually running, not the whole tank
- Macerators and lifting pumps Lift height and run length trade against each other
- Vessel sinks A bowl with no faucet hole, and that is the point
- Wall-mount sinks It hangs on two bolts and everything depends on the wall
- Pop-up sink drains Slotted or unslotted — get this wrong and it leaks
- Sink traps The water seal is what keeps the smell out
- Medicine cabinets Doors that open where the room lets them
- LED bathroom mirrors Color temperature, and where the electricity comes from
- Bathroom vanities The trap has to fit inside it, and often does not
- Bathroom storage cabinets Tall, narrow, and it must be anchored to the wall
- Water softeners It treats limescale. It is not a health device.
- Faucet and under-sink water filters What the maker declares it reduces, and nothing more

How BathVerdict works
Three things BathVerdict will not do
-
BathVerdict ranks on merit, not commission
Nothing here is ordered by what it pays. Where a $40 faucet has the same 1⅜ in (35 mm) ceramic cartridge as a $160 one, that is what the page says — and where the cheap option is a false economy because its cartridge is a size nobody stocks, it says that instead.
-
BathVerdict reports, it does not paraphrase
A flow rate with the pressure it was measured at, a center distance rather than a photograph, a cartridge diameter, a water seal depth, a faucet hole size, a build height under the tray — the specifications that decide whether a thing fits and works, not the headline. Every figure names where it comes from, its unit is written exactly as the maker published it, and a figure we could not source is left out rather than guessed.

Bathroom fittings priced where you live
One button, one store: the Amazon this site is written for. The price next to it, though, is the one read for your own country. Where no verified bathroom fittings reference exists on that store, the link opens a search there instead of nothing.
Prices quoted in these summaries are dated readings. The live price is shown next to each product.
