This bathroom faucet is absolutely stunning! It is very heavy and has the feeling and look of luxury. Very easy to wipe off to maintain it's shine. There were two minor glitches that stalled installation: 1- the hoses needed an adapter to fit to existing connections 2- the sink had three holes and the faucet came with a single hole deck plate. Because of our remote location, we had to send off for the correct deck plate. Took about a week to get here. Other than that, I am well pleased with this beautiful addition to our master bathroom. I have never heard of Grohe before but if you are in the market for quality and craftsmanship, you won't be disappointed.

The Enchanted Grohe Grandera, single liver bath faucet.
The highly sophisticated German engineering in the modern art of luxury bathroom sink faucet , made with 5 pounds of solid brass with multiple treatment of chromium for a mirror finish to produce an immaculate shiny surface: that is called GROHE GRANDERA DECK MOUNT 1-HANDLE LOW ARC BATHROOM FAUCET IN STARLIGHT CHROME. It is a JOY FOR MANY YEARS TO COME!
It is a pleasure looking at it's performance--the enchantment! The feeling of the cartridge movement is silky smooth. It is definitely a piece of art!
Grohe says that it is continuously improving over the last 70 years.Grohe’s unique plating process has been refined to produce and immaculate shiny surface that is recognized as one of the best surface finishes the world over. Grohe plates sub layers of copper and/or nickel to ensure that a completely non-porous, immaculate surface awaits the chrome layer. This deep, even layered chrome surface creates a luminous and mirror like sheen. Grohe finishes are life tested to withstand 60,000 “wipes” with an abrasive cloth.
That is where the enchantment comes from. You see it, you touch it,then you will definitely want it!
The Installation was very easy: all instructions are in pictures.: one instruction manual fits all languages!
I have uploaded a small video and six pictures, for your pleasure and enchantment. Enjoy........

High Quality Faucet
The old faucet in my hallway bathroom was tarnished and in need of replacement. I decided to step-up to a high quality German Engineered and manufactured product, and selected the Grohe Grandera Deck Mount 1-Handle Low ARC Faucet. I also ordered the Grohe 6-Inch Escutcheon Plate for covering unused mounting holes in the vanity. Installation was very easy and the instructions are sufficient for a novice to perform the task. I decided to use my existing pop-up sink drain assembly, which lined up perfectly with the Grohe Faucet.
The quality of materials and craftsmanship are very apparent with the Grohe Grandera Faucet. It has solid brass construction with multiple chrome coatings, and the single handle mechanism works flawlessly. It turns an ordinary looking vanity into a look of elegance.
The Grohe 1-Handle Faucet is more expensive than contractor grade faucets, however, the quality is far superior. Highly recommended.

Great faucet
It is indeed a very modern looking faucet and one could tell that it is of the highest quality. The installation was very easy and fast, even though I was just an observer when our plumber installed it.
