minimalistic beauty

This faucet fits in perfectly with my modern, streamlined bathroom remodel. It has excellent water flow, and its finger proof resistant coating works extremely well. I only have to wipe with a dry cloth and it's gleaming. I chose this design with the side handle, to avoid having water drops on the spout when washing my hands. The rotating spout is a plus! The only thing that I dislike is the stopper pull which looks awkward. The quality and finish make it well worth the price!

Elegant, fancy, and look durable

If its nose was a bit longer, water would not be spilled all over the vanity counter

Less mess

Love it. Having the handle on the side instead of at the top makes for a cleaner bathroom. My guests don't need to deal with a messy handle leftover from a previous guest. Only wish it were not so tall as water does splash a lot unless I turn the nozzle to the side.

Great faucet

We order 2 of the faucets in polished nickel and couldn’t be more pleased

good customer service

received the order as promise, good price and customer service. Thank you

My bathroom sink had been there for like 25 years. Still worked, but looking at it each day consciously reminded me that I should replace it. I finally got that chance when I was able to review this. I know my comparison chart is only one, but what I can vouch for is the great quality of Grohe faucets, and specifically this one. First of all, I got the shiny chrome-like finish, which was what my old faucet was. I didn't have a choice, but if you do, I would recommend you to get the brushed nickel finish if you don't like wiping down your faucet daily because you hate water spots. The shine looks great, until it doesn't, which will last you about a week at most if you're like me and love to splash water everywhere when you wash your hands and face. But nonetheless, the chrome version looks good when it's clean. I didn't want to touch installing it with a ten food pole, as I'm all thumbs when it comes to plumbing, so I had a professional friend did it for me. Hopefully you are less useless as I am and can do it within an hour, as it took the pro about 40 minutes to do mine. I couldn't see what he was doing really, as he had to lie on his back and really dig in there underneath the sink cabinet. Lord knows I can even see what's what and where's where, let alone know what to do with anything. However, once done, it works like a charm. The knob controls both the hot and cold water, and it's easy to turn and use - the mechanism is smooth and easy. The faucet raises about 7.5" off the countertop, and provides almost 7" of clearance room, so it you feel very comfortable using it and not have to worry about not having enough space to wash your hands or other things that you can fit under it. My old faucet kind of just juts out like a bridge, so the clearance room was very low and it was a bit annoying using it. Finally, the fit and finish is top-notch. It looks and feels like a luxury, premium faucet through and through. Grohe has an excellent reputation for their faucets, and this one is no exception. I know this is not a cheap faucet. My old one probably cost $50, so I can't really compare the two. But if you have the budget for it, you will not be disappointed. If my old one lasted 25 years, this one should outlive me. Less

The Grohe Single handle bathroom faucet is a feast for the eyes although the style should be compatible with other fixtures in your bathroom. Its modern, fairly angular, and might not look right in your bathroom. This faucet is designed as a one hole installation I bought a Grohe plate to cover the two holes in my sink that would otherwise have been uncovered. (Since then, Ive removed and re-installed it without the plate, putting a soap dispenser in one hole and a faucet for purified water in the other hole). With that warning, let me say that this faucet has features that few others (aside from Grohe) provide the faucet swivels if you want to direct the water anywhere from either side of your sink, to the center of the sink, this will do it. Why would you want this? There are times when you might get things on a side of the sink, and not want to put your hands into the sink to move it think toothpaste, for example. This faucet takes care of that right away. Temperature settings limit how hot the water will become you dont have to worry about getting burned by hot water when you use this faucet. The faucet has a feature that is disappearing from many made by other manufacturers a pop-up that can be controlled by a lever on the faucet, instead of a pop-up that you must press to open or close. I prefer being able to open and close the pop-up using a lever, rather than putting my hand into hot, soapy water to open the pop-up. In addition to having great features, the chrome finish on this faucet is probably the best that Ive seen on plumbing fixtures. Its expensive. Its got a style that you either cant use or you can. It can cost you a LOT of money because you may want to upgrade your vanity or the rest of your bathroom to do this faucet justice. I'm deducting a star because the installation instructions are too generic, covering many of Grohe's faucet models, and providing little specific guidance for THIS faucet. I've installed many faucets, so this wasn't a major problem, but I can see how it can provide a challenge for a person with little experience installing faucets. Less

I had to replace an existing faucet that was installed by the builders in our new house because it didn't fit well with the vessel sink. The old faucet was too low for the vessel sink. When I saw this I knew this would fit perfectly, If you have a vessel sink, this is high enough to give enough clearance. However, you must measure the clearance it requires (about 3 inches) for its lever handle. Make sure that there is enough distance from the sink to the faucet hole that allows for the lever handle to move freely in front of the sink. It looks very elegant, modern and high-quality. Highly recommended!

I love this Grohe M Faucet, but I hated the instructions. They are wordless IKEA-like line drawings and diagrams. While very precise in technical detail, the steps lack text of any kind to warn of pitfalls. Grohe should not assume that the pictures are self-explanatory. Yes, some of them are, like make sure the water lines are not twisted, pinched, or bent at very tight angles, but would it have hurt anything to include a short text blurb? For step 1, there is 1a, 1b, 1c. 1a and 1b look like they pertain to the optional metal plate at the base of the faucet. But is 1c optional? Then there's 2a and 2b. If I chose to keep the metal base plate (1a), do I only do 2a? The problem is that the diagrams show the top pullGROHE 33170003 Plus Single-Handle Bathroom Faucet S-Size, Starlight Chrome , so some of the steps do not apply at all. I wasted some time looking for parts shown in the diagrams that don't apply to this model. The Grohe website is of no help since the instructions are the same as what's included in the box. I was able to figure it all out after looking at the diagrams and my own sink, but this could've been all avoided. Less

I really like this M-Size Bath Faucet from Grohe. It has excellent design and styling. It pairs well with a modern design theme. The geometric shapes of it give it an engineered look yet with a touch of playful styling. It is uniquely proportional in many ways from the thick robust main riser, medium sized horizontal spout to the thin small handle lever. This gives it visual interest while keeping it from feeling too bulky nor too thin. The curved areas lend a softer feel to what otherwise would have been a hard metallic angular design. Even the drain pull adds its own distinctive element with it's small cylindrical shape. The build quality is as usual for Grohe, second to none. Silky smooth valves that are quiet with great precision. A uniform and flawless finish. Easy to keep clean and beautiful to look at. This one is when paired with the right design elements can make a statement. One of my favorite faucets by Grohe. 5 stars. Less

I've been updating the house and discovered Grohe after having used American Standard or Kohler on my other houses. I'll never go back to any other brand now, I'm a Grohe convert! The finish on these truly is exceptional- sure, it looks like chrome like all of them but it's different. It cleans perfectly and easily and has a depth to the shine that the other brands can't pull off. It's hard to describe, but you'll notice it instantly. The build quality of this faucet is fantastic as well. It's really heavy and solid. The way all the parts move is smooth and firm. There's no mistaking that this is very high end in every way. This particular faucet has a rotating feature which is unusual for a bathroom fixture but I love that feature. With the height and rotation feature, it makes for a more versatile sink. My master bathroom is being renovated now, with the floors being done this week and all the plumbing next week- including a complete Grohe makeover with shower controls, towel racks and everything all matching. You just can't beat this stuff- and I anticipate it will last forever. Less
