Apparently found a walkthrough of someone testing out their Grohe mixer and hand shower set. I'm curious how these fare for people who has one in their home.
The main point of sale for Grohe mixers is supposedly the smooth operation of the handle for switching settings. They use high quality cartridges that supposedly maintain the same feel, as opposed to others who may develop a gritty feel after a year or two of use. The hand showers are somewhat straightforward, but the pressure between the two heads supposedly remains stable with Grohe versus others that may drop the pressure when switching between the two heads.
I installed a Grohe mixer myself, so does the feel last? Does anyone with one have the same experience as me where the cheapness of the materials show after a period of time? Or does it feel as good when it come time to service as when it was new when first installed? Would the cartridges be difficult to replace if they were ever damaged or worn down? I'm not about to purchase one yet but I'd like to know the experiences with these products before I can recommend to others.
