hansgrohe Focus Modern Upgrade Easy Clean 1-Handle 1 7-inch Tall Bathroom Sink Faucet in Chrome 04371000

I replaced a Villeroy & Boch faucet that was malfunctioning with this beautiful Hansgrohe Focus faucet. It has a clean, modern appearance, was easy to install and performs flawlessly. It was also less expensive than most Hansgrohe faucets. Read more

I bought the Hansgrohe Focus single-handle faucet to replace an old chrome fixture with two control knobs that came with my condo and which I didn't care for. I installed the Hansgrohe faucet myself, which was pretty easy to do, if you have a modicum of "do-it-yourself" skill. If not, then, definitely hire a plumber. The hardest part of the job was removing the old faucet, which was connected by an unholy mix of copper pipes (not the standard braided steel tubes) and hard-to-remove connectors. It was tough, but, I got through it. I love the modern, high arch design of this spout, which is made of brass with a nickel finish. The faucet has a very solid feel and is well-made. Max flow rate is 1.5 gallons per minute. Be aware that this faucet features a very high spout, which might not be to everyone's taste, but, I like it, because one doesn't have to lean down far towards the sunk if brushing one's teeth, or, washing one's face. Also -- big improvement over my old faucet -- the new spout comes out over the sink to a greater length, eliminating the old faucet's annoying issue of constantly splashing water on the vanity surface and wall because of the spout's low arch and short extension length. And, of course, the main selling point for me was getting the convenience of single-handle temperature adjustment, which really should be a standard design requirement, in my book. The single-handle knob on the Hansgrohe feels solid and well-made, and turns very smoothly. The faucet is easy to clean, too (no nooks and crannies for dirt to build up). The spout can be turned about 120 degrees left or right, and, the aerator can be removed very easily by unscrewing it, in order to clean it. Whatever faucet you end up buying, I would recommend going with a brushed nickel finish, as opposed to the standard chrome. It does cost a little more, but, I think that the aesthetics of nickel are far superior. In my humble opinion, anyway. Read more

I selected Hansgrohe for their high quality reputation, ceramic cartridge water control valve for long life, low flow rate of 1.2 GPM - EPA WaterSense Compliance, style, and finish. Did a lot of internet research to find just the right faucet for my bathroom, so many faucets to choose from. Replacing an old two handled faucet with a serious leak. I wanted a single handle faucet with a high spout and good reach for ease of washing hands, water conserving, and a smooth, brushed nickel finish to minimize dirt collection. To me this faucet has it all. I was well aware it did not have a "Spot Resistant Finish" as some faucets do, never mentioned anywhere in the faucet's specifications. Knowing this, I did not falsely downgrade my rating as some people did. I have a small hand towel for wiping down the sink and faucet after every use. Not a problem keeping the faucet looking new. A thick mixture of baking soda and water will remove any water spot residue. Great looking and performing faucet. Not one problem after years of use. Read more

A very nice German engineered faucet that I absolutely love, and I am extremely discriminating, especially if you like the modern look. Read more

I originally got this faucet in chrome from Costco for an unbelievably low price of $50 and I loved the sleek & modern design of it, but the chrome finish left a lot to be desired. No matter how much I cleaned or polished it, it always looked dirty and spotted everyday as if a final process was missed in the factory. When it was time to redo the second bathroom a few months later, I wanted the same faucet but opted for the brushed nickel from Amazon which was over 2 times the price of what I originally paid but still a great price for a great looking faucet. However, I have to say again I'm disappointed. I know there are certain brands that advertise no spot or finger print finish, and that isn't the case with Hansgrohe, but I have renovated with other brush nickel faucets before from other companies and they have all been a lot less maintenance than this. I have to keep a cloth on the vanity and wipe down the faucet, every time I wash my hands so as not to have spots. I have tried using wax to have the water bead off but it doesn't work as well as I had hoped. Great looking faucet but be prepared for the extra time involved in maintaining a clean look Read more

nice substantial, quality hansgrohe faucet. customer very happy Read more

The appearance is appealing, the faucet was straight forward to install. The drain did not fit the 1.5 inch drain hole, it was too small and it leaked no matter how you install it. The attachment to the drain was also very cumbersome. I had to buy a separate pop-up drain. Read more
