Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We ordered this to replace a very old Delta faucet that had been leaking. Besides the Grohe quality, we wanted a faucet that would sit up higher than the old one -- it had been difficult to get our hands under the older, low-slung faucet.
If you're wondering about the size, the top of the arc on this faucet is just over 7 inches above the base, and the spout is 5 inches about the base. Many bathroom faucets are only 2 inches or so, which means this one will give you substantially more clearance if that is an issue for you. But it is not too large or too high to get in the way, at least in our bathroom.
The water controls themselves feel very solid. They turn easily with little force needed, but have a very smooth and crisp feel with a definite off position. Basically, the feel has exactly the kind of solid but effortless engineering you'd hope from Grohe.
Note that you must get faucet handles to accompany this set. We got the cross handles which look great, feel solid, and have a classy, sort of "retro" look. The drain assembly IS included with this set, so all you need is this set and handles of your choice.
We checked prices at several locations and Amazon was the best by a substantial margin, as of January 2011.
As for installation, I can't speak to that because we had a plumber install it for us, along with other work. However, he apparently had no difficulties. Also, he had highly recommended that we get a Grohe (or Moen or Delta) due to standardized and available parts, unlike some other high-end brands where any replacement part has to be specially ordered.
