ryuwanku 202503 freestanding tub filler review

A 7.4 GPM floor-mount tub filler with a 360° gooseneck spout, diverter knob and 2-in-1 handheld.

What the maker puts in writing

  • “Featuring a high-performance brass valve and 1/2” large-diameter hoses, this freestanding tub filler delivers a maximum water flow of 7.4 GPM through the main spout, filling a standard 55-gallon bathtub in just 7.4 minutes. The 2.8 GPM handheld shower ensures strong spray power”
  • Made entirely of solid brass and stainless steel; a multi-layer matte black finish applied through high-temperature baking and curing, resisting rust, peeling and fading
  • “360° Swivel Gooseneck Spout — the tall gooseneck spout offers 360-degree rotation for flexible usage. Enjoy a softened air-injected water stream that enhances the bathing experience. Effortlessly switch between the tub spout and the multifunction handheld sprayer with the diverter knob”
  • A 2-in-1 handheld shower: twist the body to toggle between standard shower mode and high-pressure spray gun mode
  • Supplied with a brass base plate, body tube, stainless steel 59” shower hose, 1/2” supply lines (customisable to 3/8”), and three mounting bolts; a 5-Year Warranty

The cheaper of two near-identical faucets

ryuwanku sells two freestanding tub fillers on Amazon.com, checked on October 29, 2026:

202504 — $149.99 in brushed nickel, $189.99 in brushed gold — “Waterfall Design” 202503 — $89.99 in matte black — 360° gooseneck, air-injected stream, diverter knob

Both 7.4 GPM at the spout and 2.8 at the handheld. Both solid brass and stainless. Both with the twist-mode handheld, the 59-inch hose, the three-bolt mount and five years of warranty, in bullets that are largely the same text.

The cheaper listing describes two more features than the dearer one.

Unless the waterfall spout or a metallic finish is specifically what you want, this is the purchase.

Arithmetic that checks

7.4 GPM… filling a standard 55-gallon bathtub in just 7.4 minutes.

Fifty-five divided by 7.4 is 7.43.

That is the only listing on this shelf that shows its working, and on a shelf where flow figures run from 4.5 to 12.16 GPM with no common test pressure, showing the working counts for something.

Two words nobody else here uses

Diverter knob. Five of the seven faucets on this shelf include a handheld; this listing and the LOCALAND (its “water separator”) are the only two that name the control that switches between spout and wand. It is the part you operate every single bath.

Air-injected. An aerator mixes air into the stream, which makes it softer, quieter and far less inclined to splash out of a half-full tub — the reason nearly every bathroom faucet has one.

The waterfall and gooseneck spouts elsewhere on this shelf deliver a solid column of water: faster, louder, splashier.

What 7.4 gallons a minute depends on

The pipe, not the faucet.

A faucet cannot pass more water than the supply feeding it, and a 1/2 inch line at ordinary household pressure moves roughly 6 to 8 gallons a minute. That is exactly why ryuwanku makes a point of 1/2 inch large-diameter hoses rather than the thinner 3/8 inch it also supports.

Fit it on 3/8 inch stubs and the published figure will not appear. And the SUMERAIN on this shelf, at 12.16 GPM, is claiming more than almost any domestic supply can give it.

What is not here

No cartridge cycle rating, where SUMERAIN and LOCALAND both publish 600,000 operations.

No certification, where SUMERAIN and WOODBRIDGE publish ASME A112.18.1 — the standard most American plumbing codes require.

And no weight, on a 45 in (1143 mm) faucet standing on three bolts.

Strengths, and the catches

Strengths

  • Sixty dollars less than the maker’s own 202504 in brushed nickel, with the same 7.4 GPM, the same construction and the same five-year warranty
  • The only listing on this shelf that names both a diverter control and an aerated stream, which are the two things you touch and feel
  • Seven point four gallons a minute with arithmetic that checks: 55 gallons divided by 7.4 GPM is 7.43 minutes

Compromises

  • No cartridge cycle figure, where SUMERAIN and LOCALAND both publish 600,000
  • No certification published, where SUMERAIN and WOODBRIDGE publish ASME A112.18.1
  • No weight published, on a 45 in (1143 mm) floor-mounted faucet whose stability depends on its mass and its anchors

The questions we get

What is the difference between this and the maker’s 202504?

A spout shape, a finish and sixty dollars or more. Both publish 7.4 GPM at the spout and 2.8 at the handheld, solid brass and stainless construction, the 2-in-1 twist handheld and a five-year warranty. On Amazon.com the 202504 waterfall version is now sold in brushed nickel at $149.99 and brushed gold at $189.99; this gooseneck is matte black at $89.99, and its listing additionally names a diverter knob and a softened air-injected water stream. Unless you specifically want the waterfall shape or a metallic finish, this is the one.

Does an aerated stream matter on a tub filler?

For how the bath feels while filling, yes. An aerator mixes air into the stream, which makes it softer, quieter and less inclined to splash out of a half-filled tub — which is why bathroom faucets nearly all have one. The trade is that aerated water cools very slightly faster as it falls. This is the only listing on this shelf to mention it at all; the waterfall and gooseneck spouts elsewhere here deliver an unbroken column of water, which fills fast and splashes more.

Is 7.4 GPM what I will actually get?

Only if the plumbing can supply it. A faucet cannot deliver more water than the pipe feeding it, and a 1/2 inch supply at ordinary household pressure moves somewhere in the region of 6 to 8 gallons a minute — which is why ryuwanku makes a point of its 1/2 inch large-diameter hoses. Fit this on 3/8 inch stubs, which the listing says it can be adapted to, and the figure falls. The SUMERAIN on this shelf claims 12.16 GPM, which almost no domestic supply will deliver.
