Buying a Tap for Water Filter. AliExpress or Australian Store

I'm after a black tap for my water filter.

I came across this one:

I then took a look at Aliexpress:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005195184088.html
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005860287773.html

They look similar. I'm considering purchasing from Aliexpress instead.
Is this a bad idea?

Also, I'm looking at buying this twin undersink filter:

Is this a decent one? Or are there better/cheaper out there?

Thanks for any advice.

    Better get something watermarked. Insurance is going to climb up your ass when you make a water damage claim if you have no watermark.

        PSI Filters. Google them. I've done the homework but finding a plumber is a beech

    Yes

    Besides WaterMark certification, you want a quality tap that is not going to leach chemicals back into your filtered water

    For new, check Bunnings, IKEA and even Gumtree/FB Marketplace for discounted old models, stock from cancelled renovations etc

    Or are there better/cheaper out there?

    PSI Filters are the best water filter dealers in Australia
