The hot water pressure in our kitchen is awful: we have to wait maybe 90

On the other hand, it takes a few seconds only for the water to come to
the upstairs basin.

So far, so fairly bleeding obvious. (Additionally: the kitchen tap is
one of those fancy pull lever up and swing left or right for hot or
cold, on a long flexible pipe so you can hose the dishes, and with a
press-button spray system; and goodness knows (I've forgotten) what
convolutions the feed pipe goes through on its way from upstairs to
down.)

My question: what would The Panel suggest, as a means of improving
reaction time downstairs? Get rid of the fancy tap? Look at and
improve the route? or could I perhaps replace the standard 15mm pipe
with 22mm pipe?

There's a very good chance your fancy mixer tap is designed for mains
pressure hot water - mine is, but I too have a storage system. Which
worked fine with low pressure taps. So I added a pump which sorts things
out. Cost less than the mixer.

ROFLMAO. He one pump on one tap. Hilarious.
