Centre-set bathroom faucet
What is a centre-set bathroom faucet and what are its advantages?
Expert Trade Answers
"Centerset faucets feature several pros and cons. A few of the advantages of this faucet type include:
• Easy installation: Since everything is already connected, centerset faucets are a bit quicker to install.
• Compact: The spout and handles sit on a single base plate, allowing the design to remain compact and optimize space. These faucets are a strong choice for areas with limited installation space.
• Versatile: You can find these faucets in both 4-inch and 6-inch varieties.
On the other hand, a few of the cons include:
• Tricky to clean: Given the compact nature of the design, centerset faucets can be hard to clean.
Centerset faucets are available in various colors, designs, and brands. You have several options. Most manufacturers offer a few centerset designs, if not more. A few popular centerset faucets include:
• Delta Lahara Two-Handle Centerset Lavatory Faucet
• American Standard Reliant 3 Bathroom Centerset Faucet
• Moen Gibson Two-Handle Centerset High Arc Bathroom Faucet."

"This type of faucet can be used on sinks and countertops with one to three holes. This style features a deckplate that contains the handles and spout in one plate. Centerset faucets require holes with 4" centers. These can be easier to install."

"They're common place in USA but rarely seen here ,I've been fitting Bathrooms for over ten years and only done one !
As far as I can make out the only advantage would be if you were running a low pressure/ gravity fed water system as they allow a much better flow ."
