GROHE 23495000 Get Basin Mixer Tap : The tap itself is high quality as you’d expect from Grohe and looks great too.

Very nice tap, easy to fit, good price and quick delivery.

The tap itself is high quality as you’d expect from grohe and looks great too. . Secured overnight delivery which is handy for a weekend. Other bathroom retailers classify next day as next working day and are also much more expensive. The tap itself is high quality as you’d expect from grohe and looks great too.

Ordered two but they are not the same. I’ve ordered two of these, the first one is great but the second one doesn’t aerate the water making it foamy and reducing the amount of water needed. Here are the specifications for the GROHE 23495000 Get Basin Mixer Tap:

  • Pop-up waste set for easy operation when filling water or draining waste in the basin
  • Scratch resistant and easy to clean thanks to the GROHE StarLight chrome coating
  • GROHE SilkMove technology for smooth handling and precise water flow control
  • Includes flexible connection hoses
  • Includes adjustable flow rate limiter
  • Adjustable minimum flow rate 2.5 l/min
  • GROHE QuickFix: rapid and hassle-free installation
  • Minimum recommended pressure 0.2 bar
  • This product comes with a 5 Year manufacturers warranty

Great tap, needs basic plumbing skills to fit. . This is a super quality tap at a very good price. However some plumbing skills are needed to fit it. The supplied fitting on the end is european and so a visit to the local plumbers supply shop will be needed to purchase a few cheap bits to convert to uk fitting. Else let a plumber do the job but pay a lot more.

Reviews from purchasers :

  • Good but not perfect
  • Nice piece of tap with issues
  • Enhanced my bathroom

Overall a good quality solid tap but two points worth noting. The plumbing connection is european not uk so needs an adapter to fit to uk pipework. The pop-up waste mechanism is probably the worst design ever and surprisingly bad for such a good quality tap.It is operated by a flimsy lever at the back of the tap that is basically a bent bit of wire which requires a lot of room behind the tap to operate and doesn’t work in the space left by standard tap holes – we used basins from three different manufacturers and it would not work with any of them so we had to change all the pop-up wastes for click wastes. Otherwise, we were pleased with the taps.

Very nice tap, easy to fit, good price and quick delivery.

      1. Nice piece of tap with issues. The main glitch is it has smaller threads (3/8″) at the end of hoses (which aren’t replaceable) than valves normally used in uk (1/2″) and it’s very hard to get adaptors not available in main chains (available here: https://www. Uk/dp/b00h4w0k5m/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1). So i struggled for couple days on attempts to install it before i got them from amazon. The other issue is that how runoff is built, the stopping plug is quite loose inside and usually doesn’t sit straight when open. It doesn’t posses any technical or practical risks, however annoys aesthetically. The tap nicely presents itself on the basin.

    1. I just installed them and they look and function sweet as a nut. Worth the money and b&q were selling them for £80 and i got them here for £65. Beware the flexible connectors do not connect to u. Threads and are an oddball size. Amazon sell the 3/8ths to 15mm grohe connectors for a fiver that can be joined to a standard 15mm isolator value or pipe.

    You probably need adapters if you are in the uk. . Good tap but uk users will probably need ’15mm compression by 3/8″ bsp male iron thread european flexible tap adapters (pair)’ which you can find on amazon.
