SmartSant faucets: advantages and disadvantages

Modern mixers fulfill not only a technical, but also an aesthetic function. They must be durable, easy to use and maintain, and affordable. SmartSant mixers meet these requirements.

The founder of the SmartSant trademark is the Videksim group holding. The date of foundation of the brand, as well as the appearance of its own assembly plant (in the Moscow region, in the village of Kurilovo) is 2007.

Brass devices are highly reliable. They are not subject to corrosion and are durable. Chrome and nickel provide additional protection and an attractive appearance. It should be noted that mixers with a chrome-nickel layer are much more reliable than their counterparts coated with enamel. The latter are prone to chips.

Expanding the market, the manufacturer enters new regions with products. It is noteworthy that much attention is paid to the peculiarities of the functioning of the structure in specific conditions (in other words, the degree of water hardness and the presence of impurities in it are taken into account).

Depending on the purpose, there are bathroom and kitchen faucets. Both options can be found in the manufacturer's collection.

He produces the following types of mixers:

• for washbasins and sinks;
• for bath and shower;
• For shower;
• for a kitchen sink;
• for bidet;
• thermostatic models (maintain a given temperature regime and water pressure).

The faucet collection includes 2 variants.

• Single-lever. They use Spanish cartridges with ceramic-based plates, the diameters of which are 35 and 40 mm.

• Double-link. The working element in the system is crane axle boxes equipped with ceramic gaskets. They can run smoothly for up to 150 cycles.

Faucets of this brand enjoy the well-deserved trust of buyers, which is due to the inherent advantages of the product.

• Plumbing SmartSant is manufactured in accordance with GOST, subject to the requirements of safety and quality standards, the requirements of the sanitary and epidemiological station.
• Controlling the quality and reliability of mixers at each of the production stages significantly reduces the amount of rejects entering store shelves.
• A characteristic advantage of SmartSant mixers is the presence of a German aerator in them. Its task is to ensure an even flow of water and reduce the risk of a layer of lime deposits on the plumbing.
• The connection to the water supply is carried out by a flexible underwater pipe made in Spain. Due to its 40 m length, connection is quick and easy. There is no need to "build up" the length of the tube, as is the case with other types of mixers.
• The plumbing pipe has a standard 0.5 'thread, which simplifies the installation and connection of SmartSant plumbing fixtures.

• If we talk about bathroom faucets, they are equipped with a self-cleaning shower head, thanks to which it is automatically cleaned of limescale and dirt. It is logical that this prolongs its service life and allows you to preserve the original look of plumbing for a long time.
• When buying a bathroom device, you will receive all the necessary accessories for organizing a shower - a mixer, a shower head, a brass or plastic hose, a holder for fixing the shower head on the wall.In other words, no additional costs are foreseen.
• A variety of models and aesthetic appeal - you can easily find a mixer for different needs and designs.
• The warranty period is from 4 to 7 years (depending on the model).
• Affordability - the product belongs to the middle price category.

On the Internet, you can find reviews that talk about the need to periodically replace the faucet mesh. This is due to the fact that too hard water flows through the water supply system, and this leads to the settling of limescale on the mesh, the need to replace it. This disadvantage can be called a feature of operation.

Some users complain that it is difficult to find a comfortable water temperature when turning on single-lever mixers. As a rule, owners of inexpensive devices face this problem. They have a temperature adjustment angle in the range of 6-8 degrees, and a comfortable temperature regime of water can be adjusted by changing the adjustment angle in the range of 12-15 degrees. It is this adjustment that is provided in more expensive models. In other words, the inability to quickly reach the optimal temperature when SmartSant single-lever mixers are turned on is the downside of the low price of the device.

According to customer reviews, the SmartSant mixer is an inexpensive, high quality and attractive unit. Users note that outwardly it is not inferior to expensive German mixers, but at the same time its price is lower by 1000-1500 rubles.
