  • The 10 Best Mini Widespread Bathroom Faucets

    The 10 Best Mini Widespread Bathroom Faucets

    Mini widespread bathroom faucets are a type of faucet that combines elements of both widespread and center-set faucets. They typically feature a three-piece design with separate hot and cold water handles and a spout, and measure 4-inches from the center to center of the valves, which is a smaller spread between the handles compared to traditional 8-inch widespread faucets. The mini configuration allows for a more compact installation while still providing the same look as a traditional widespread installation. A mini widespread and a 4-inch centerset faucet are both 4 inches from handle to handle. The main difference between the two is that the mini widespread is three separate pieces, while the 4-inch centerset is one single unit with spout and handles connected at the base.
