GROHE Tenso Deck Mount Vessel Faucet, Satin Nickel #32425AV0 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've used all sorts of brands of faucets over the years in my homes and GROHE is definitely a premium brand. They don't make any cheap items. The action is really smooth. The water temperature adjustments are perfect. It is a smooth curve and transition from hot to cold or vise versa and is directly relational to the handle position. One note for installation is that the cartridge is not reversible, so make sure the hot and cold lines are hooked up correctly the first time. This of course is a minor thing. I would much rather have its silky smooth operation than the connivence of a reversible cartridge which really is a one time event anyhow that is easily remedied. Just take the extra two seconds required to identify the hot and cold lines first! Beautiful finish in satin nickel. Heavy construction. Well made and designed. What can I say. I really love this faucet.

GROHE SilkMove Technology: Feel the difference When it comes to smooth operation, GROHE faucets are a cut above the rest. The unique cartridges are manufactured in GROHE factories from an advanced ceramic alloy and coated with a special Teflon lubricant for near friction-free operation. As a result, GROHE SilkMove technology ensures a lifetime of maintenance-free comfort and reliability. Beyond easy one-finger control, however, GROHE cartridges also feature an extra wide operating angle, or "comfort zone," which means that precise temperature adjustment from hot to warm to cold is an effortless, gradual and safe process.

GROHE SilkMove is an interactive sensation which you will experience day after day for the lifetime of your faucet. The cartridge is the nerve center of every faucet and where the ceramic discs are located. The lever handle of the faucet is connected to the discs by a shaft--GROHE uses solid brass for strength and durability. As the discs move over each other, they either block the water or allow it to pass through. Therefore the quality and machining of these parts will affect the performance of your faucet.

GROHE is one of the world's leading faucet manufacturers and one of the few that manufacture their own cartridges. Its cartridges are manufactured in a high-tech vacuum process and feature discs made from a space-proven ceramic alloy. The polished mirror-like surface of the discs is then coated with a special Teflon lubricant for frictionless operation.

And because its faucets are designed with stand years of use, GROHE incorporates micro-chambers of this lubricant within the cartridge - for a lifetime of maintenance-free operation. As a result of this state-of-the art technology, its faucets have an extra-wide operating angle, allowing you to exactly manage the water flow and temperature. Like all GROHE technologies, GROHE SilkMove is yet another perfect example of design and technology working in harmony to give you an enhanced water experience.

Unconventionally modern without a hint of trendy, Tenso makes a clear statement of creative individuality. The Tenso design offers an exciting reinterpretation of the cylinder as a basic form. If you crave high style coupled with a chic idiosyncratic touch, head for the unusual and beautiful Tenso-–the perfect personal expression with GROHE SilkMove® technology.
