{"title":"Blutide Darling","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Blutide Darling range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDarling is a six-product range, all of it listed in chrome. What makes it worth a look at this size is what it includes rather than how much there is: a round freestanding bath mixer with a hand shower sits in the range alongside the concealed and wall-type fittings, and a freestanding mixer is usually the first thing a small range leaves out. If you are putting a freestanding bath into a room and want the basin and shower controls to read as part of the same family, Darling does that in six items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the six pieces cover\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range runs to a concealed diverter mixer, a concealed shower mixer, a wall-type bath mixer with a standard offset, the round freestanding bath mixer with hand shower, a sink mixer for the kitchen and a guest basin mixer. That is one item per job. Darling works as a specification for a single bathroom plus a kitchen tap, but it gives you no second option inside any category, and there are no accessories, towel rails or shower heads under the Darling name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe freestanding bath mixer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA freestanding bath mixer stands on the floor beside the bath rather than fixing to the bath rim or the wall, so the supply is brought up through the floor. That position has to be set out before the screed goes down and before the bath is placed, because moving it afterwards means opening the floor again. Confirm the distance from the bath while the plumbing is still accessible, and think about where the hand shower will sit when it is not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere else to look\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the range is only one deep in each category, most buyers end up comparing it against the rest of the brand.
