Ratings and reviews

Almaren ReviewBarryI wish the IKEA Almaren aerator is of standard sizes for North America, because none of the after-market 360 Degree Rotate Faucet Nozzle Sprayer Head Water fits on this IKEA faucet. Unless IKEA has their own brand that fits; and if it does, it's not marketed/promoted prominently by the kitchen faucet area.4
Good quality, can be more sturdyIelyzavetaI like the height and the design. Have been using for 3+ months. I just wish the top part of the faucet was more sturdy, it has some movement when you shake it.4
Nice Look , easy to installAldo ScollaroReally easy to install, good quality , nice finish.5
buy something elsejk519i read other reviews about it dripping/leaking, but i bought it off the looks to match the kitchen design. BIG MISTAKE. it looks great, but after 6 weeks of use, it drips/leaks. unfortunately due to the covid-19 virus ikea is not able to send me a replacement (even though it was in stock in multiple locations). customer service took 3 WEEKS to finally come to a resolution, and ill be taking my refund elsewhere.1
Perfect kitchen faucetMylmdBought a few months ago and is very satisfied.5
Azi 1358I bought it and really love it but I forced to return it as there was no adaptor available in whole Toronto to match the fauset.1
Looks great and easy to clean but......Verified BuyerBought this faucet as visually it works well with a kitchen with stainless steel appliances and hardware on cabinetry. Easy to clean and one-lever operation works great for one-hands use. However the flexible pipe with the counter weight is not durable and has a few leaks. Leaks are not apparent when the hose is “at rest” but once moved around several small leaks were revealed. Looking now at manual to see if just that hose can be replaced. I will be disappointed if the whole assembly needs to be removed or If that one part is not replaceable2
FaucetNicely doneIt's a Nice faucet in kitchen5
Just installed, dripping from spoutDMALBought this against better judgement. $99 for a faucet is amazingly cheap and usually one gets what one pays for. Started dripping immediately. Requested that IKEA provide replacement cartridge. Was told I have to bring back entire fixture and wait on the benches of sorrow until my number is up. That's a huge time and labour wasting inconvenience. IKEA customer service was very nice though! As nice as it looked etc for the price, I can't give a dripping faucet anything more than one star.1
It leaks on the baseVerified BuyerBought this two weeks ago, Had it installed by a professional. After two days it started dripping on the ring where the handle comes out of the base. Have to remove it and get it replaced1
Verified BuyerI find this product acceptable to my needs however I believe the water spout should be a bit wider ! When the tap is fully open the water just spits back out from the sink on the counter and back splash other than that it is very good4

Saving water at every step

Every time you rinse salad, fill a kettle or wash dishes, you're helping with something essential—saving water. How? Thanks to the small aerator in every IKEA kitchen faucet that reduces water flow while maintaining pressure. We didn't invent aerators, but think they are an important example of how we can work together to save water for everyone's benefit.

Four years ago, we started a project to improve our faucets and knew we needed more expertize. That's when we hired Antony Smith, an engineer from England who has worked with faucets for more than a decade. Now he lives in Sweden and is part of a small team that develops faucets and showers for IKEA. Like every new employee, Antony read founder Ingvar Kamprad's Testament of a Furniture Dealer. In it, Ingvar writes 'wasting resources is a mortal sin at IKEA.' This helped Antony understand how much we care about water and how his job is just one step in our larger approach to sustainability.

A company-wide dedication

"When I got to IKEA, I realized we practice what we preach about sustainability," Antony says. "It's a refreshing experience, but it makes our job really difficult because we genuinely have to deliver on sustainability with each product." So why is conserving water so important? Because water is one of our planet's most precious resources. Earth may be covered in a lot of water, but very little of it is drinkable and even less is accessible. No organism can survive without it, and no new water is created. It's constantly recycled, but our freshwater supply is overused; not evenly distributed; and impacted by pollution, contamination and climate change.

A water-conscious commitment

IKEA values the quality and quantity of water so much that we are committed to being water positive by 2020. One aspect is finding simple ways for people to conserve water. Aerators are a step we took long before our water commitment, but Antony and his team are working hard on new water saving faucets using sensors or spray technology. Behind the scenes, there's more to our commitment than what we develop for kitchens. Our initiative also includes exploring ways to improve water efficiency across the whole product process, whether it’s at our suppliers, distribution centers or stores. It can mean providing factory workers and their families with fresh drinking water, ensuring all factory water is cleaned before release, reducing water usage in textile production or using rainwater to flush toilets in stores. "We make things hard on ourselves for good reasons, Antony says."

An every-bit-counts belief

See why the aerator in your kitchen faucet is a small part of our bigger effort to conserve water? "Some people who live where you can just turn on your faucet and get water may not really think about saving water; it's taken for granted," Antony says. But he and his team think about water at every step. It's part of creating a positive impact on people and the planet. We think every water-saving action adds up and thank you for helping with your kitchen mixer faucet!

Material

What is brass?

Brass is a mixture of copper and zinc and the amounts vary depending on the desired properties. Copper is usually the main material and the more zinc you add results in the brass being harder and stronger, but also results in it being more difficult to shape and less resistant to rust. Brass can be recycled as brass but never into its original metals. At IKEA, we use brass for things like knobs, handles, frames and taps.
