I've been using screwfix 1/4 turn ceramic ones for a year now and they seem
fine. I've also fitted their reviver kits to existing taps with success but
they have not fitted all taps without some modifications which is easy if
you have a lathe but problematic if not.

I'm happy with the Peglar 1/4 turn range in Screwfix.

Lidl. (Occasionally.)

Agreed... Lidl, Aldi

Aldi had some good quality chrome, ceramic washer, single lever kitchen
mixer taps in for just £9.99 last week - probably still some left if
you are quick.
