Cooke & Lewis Purity 1 Lever Basin mixer tap

I've had my new bathroom fitted recently and these taps look stunning! However, I do like to take the sink waste out to give a good deep clean but you can't pull it out.
Is there a way to get it out or is it not meant to?

Have this tap fixed in my ensuite, good quality and have smooth non-spill flow. Very impressive!

Replacement for one fitted five years ago. Has become very stiff and hard to use I think caused by build up of limescale in interior mechanism. Although guaranteed for five years this is still inconvenient when the cost of refitting is taken into account. Ours was just out of warranty when we had to purchase a new one to match the bath taps which mix from two individual taps.

This is a good quality, fair priced mixer tap. It has modernised my basin unit.

Having en-suite refitted. Bought this and told plumber to build my en-suite around the tap. It looks very classy and stylish. Feels quite heavy. Can't wait for plumber to get to work.
