Axor MyEdition

Axor MyEdition is the Hansgrohe range built around one idea. The mixer body is topped with a flat rectangular cover plate, and that plate is the part you choose. It was designed by Phoenix Design, the Stuttgart studio that has worked with Axor across several ranges, and the point of it is that two identical taps can read completely differently depending on what sits on top. It also means a MyEdition tap is specified twice, once for the body and finish and once for the plate, which is where most orders go wrong.

The Plate Is Usually a Separate Item

Read the title carefully. Many MyEdition listings here say W/O Plate or Without Plate, and that is literal: the box contains the mixer and its waste set, not the cover plate. Hansgrohe lists the plate as a required part on those articles, so a mixer ordered on its own cannot be finished. Not every title spells this out, so confirm the plate before ordering rather than assuming it is included. The plates are stocked as products in their own right on this page.

Sizes and Materials

Plates come in three lengths, 150, 200 and 245, and the size is dictated by the mixer rather than by taste. The single lever basin mixers at 70 and 110 both take a 200, while the floor-standing models take a 245, so check the mixer before choosing a surface. Each length is offered in the same seven materials: leather, glass, black glass, metal chrome, American walnut, Nero Marquina marble and Lasa Covelano marble. Plates can be swapped later without replacing the tap.

What Else Is in the Range

Beyond the basin mixers, MyEdition at Bella Bathrooms covers floor-standing bath mixers, bidet mixers and a bath spout. Abbreviations recur in the titles: BM and b.m. stand for bath mixer, Freest. means floor-standing, and W/O means without. Two finish codes appear and both are written out in full elsewhere in the range, BBR for Brushed Bronze and BRG for Brushed Red Gold, alongside chrome, black chrome and polished gold optic.

MyEdition is one of several Axor designer ranges we carry. The full Axor range is the place to compare them, Axor basin mixers puts the MyEdition basin taps next to every other Axor option, and Axor freestanding bath mixers does the same for the floor-standing models. Ask us to confirm your plate size before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does an Axor MyEdition tap come with the plate?

Often not. Many listings say W/O Plate or Without Plate, which means the box holds the mixer and its waste set only. Hansgrohe lists the cover plate as a required part on those articles, so the tap cannot be finished without one. Not every title states it either way, so confirm before ordering. We stock the plates as separate products on this same page.

Which plate size do I need for my MyEdition mixer?

The mixer decides, not the plate. Axor MyEdition plates come in 150, 200 and 245. The single lever basin mixers at 70 and 110 both take a 200, and the floor-standing models take a 245. Because it varies by article, check the mixer's required parts list or send us the article number and we will confirm the size before you commit to a material.

What materials are the Axor MyEdition plates available in?

Seven, and each is offered in all three lengths. The options are leather, clear glass, black glass, metal chrome, American walnut, Nero Marquina marble and Lasa Covelano marble. Because the plate sits on top of the mixer rather than inside it, you can change the material later without touching the plumbing, which is the practical appeal of the range.

Who designed Axor MyEdition?

Phoenix Design, the Stuttgart product design studio, in collaboration with Axor. Axor is the premium design line at Hansgrohe and names its ranges after the designers or studios behind them. Phoenix Design is also credited with other Axor collections, so if you like the language of MyEdition it is worth looking at the rest of their work in the Axor catalogue.

What do BM, Freest. and W/O mean in the product titles?

They are Hansgrohe's abbreviations. BM or b.m. is bath mixer, Freest. is floor-standing, and W/O is without, so W/O Plate means the cover plate is not included. Finish codes work the same way: BBR is Brushed Bronze and BRG is Brushed Red Gold, both of which appear spelled out in full in other titles in this range if you want to confirm them.
