Great Faucet But the Warranty Leaves Much to be Desired..
the crane is a robust and very heavy product. it's surprising how much difference this faucet has in weight compared to some of its much cheaper competitors, but that's because it's made of brass and cheaper faucets are mostly plastic. the moving parts of the crane all feel solid and require little effort to use sliding would be a good word to describe how smooth everything is. the switch between normal and spraying from the faucet nozzle works as advertised seamlessly switching between the two modes even when water is flowing. keep in mind that this faucet is tall even as a smaller model and it's important to make sure there's space above the sink for it to fit. another issue is whether your sink is made of a thinner material. on a stainless steel sink, this tap can cause the material of the sink to sag due to the weight and height of the tap. I wouldn't be surprised if someone blew a hole in their stainless steel sink and pulled on the faucet because they accidentally pulled down or forward on the faucet. physical product is because the other part of the product advertised does not guarantee the warranty five stars. it comes with a limited lifetime warranty, but my experience of trying to use the warranty on a new boxed product found it to be of little value, which is disappointing given the quality of the actual physical product when it works.

Rolls Royce of commercial style faucets..
this is the 2nd time I bought this faucet. i really dug out the look of the "commercial kitchen" faucet and grohe had the best of them so i got one 6 years ago when i moved into my new build home. i liked the faucet so much that when i moved to a new place i bought about 3 weeks ago i had to upgrade the faucet to the grohe. the new place had a nice hansgrohe pull rod tap...very nice. but it cannot be compared to grohe semi-pro. the functionality is second to none and I think the look is very elegant. the installation was very easy, it is expensive but it is worth the price

This faucet works great after the flow restrictor is removed..
this faucet works fine after removing the flow limiter. Here's how to remove the restrictor without damaging any part of the faucet or restrictor: 1. Install the faucet as if no changes are being made.2. activate the tap and then deactivate it. no matter how long it takes you. this step loosens the restrictor.3. lift the metal coil supporting the tube and unscrew the tube from the base. you will see the small yellow restrictor on the bottom of the faucet after the hose has been removed.4. slowly open the faucet for a short moment while the hose is still retracted and the restrictor will come out easily. turn off the water to avoid spillage.5. reconnect hose without restrictor. your faucet should now be running at full power.

Let me explain my rating..
bought this to replace a grohe we have had since 2000. the price has become very competitive with other similar units; but it is still a grohe. true quality is sometimes worth paying for, especially if you're no longer paying for it over competitor upgrades. i didn't find this "easy to install as i don't do plumbing. we had our plumber do it. the only feature i wish was better is the range. our old grohe would reach all the way to the very edge. our corner sink setup. it only reaches 2/3 of the same distance. in the end I still give it a high rating and am happy with my purchase.
