anyone have the Grohe Blue Pure faucet/filter?

8 years ago

I am considering the Grohe Blue Pure faucet/filter but I haven't found much in the way of reviews online. I like the idea of using a single faucet for my prep sink for drinking water and washing produce. Does anyone out there have this faucet and would like to share their experience? Or anyone who considered getting it but ended up going in a different direction? Thanks in advance!

We are building a house and adding the Grohe Blue. A friend of mine has one in her kitchen in Boston and loves it. Every time I visit, I love having the sparkling water option and have seen how much use she and her husband get out of it. I’ve read reviews that it is loud (I’ve never noticed when at her condo) or that in New England the carbonation doesn’t work as well because of some issue with water chemistry (can’t recall detail) but flatness in the sparkling water has never seemed to be a problem!

I'm looking at this or the Everpure system (which I heard can be loud). I thought I'd give this a bump! :)

Kraus or Grohe kitchen faucet
Q

We have narrowed faucet selection down to the Kraus KPF-2130 or the Grohe 33755SDO (solid stainless body). While there is a difference in cost, not really an issue here. We have found a offer for a combination Kraus sink, faucet, soap dispenser that is very appealing, but would just like opinions on the quality of the Kraus compared to the Grohe. Also will need a faucet to dipense filtered water at the sink and would like to match, but looking at the cost of Kraus/Grohe compared to very similar faucets on ebay, wondering if anyone has any experience here. Thanks in advance, Rod

So... the retracting hose -- it pulls out easily, stays at the length you pull it out to, then retracts easily as well, and, yes, it clicks back into its original spot. It's not self-winding like the cord on the Dyson, you have to use your own arm power to do it, but it cooperates and goes back when it's guided to do so. I've never had a retracting faucet head before, and really like it, it would really bother me if I could not get it back to it's original "clicked in" position and I had to look at it with it's hose peeking/hanging out -- but it doen't have that issue at all, I had feared it would based on the rows and rows of askew pull-out faucets in the kitchen faucet show rooms, but someone on here explained to me that the faucets are weighted when installed, and that makes the difference and is the reason why show room faucets do not "click back" -- they were right, evidently. I pull down the hose nearly every time I use the sink, and it still clicks back easily.

GROHE BLUE CHILLED & SPARKLING

^^^ please do. I think our water will end up being more room temperature than I like and the fridge does NOT have ice / water through the door. I am seriously intrigued with this if it works - as I could see myself using it as I much prefer the Brita filtered water over our city water. I've also been told that the dogs prefer more chill in their water, so this could be the ultimate indulgence. NO SPARKLING for them - there's where I draw the line.

Normally I'm an advocate for a "big Blue" housing and a cartridge filter - but I was alerted to the Everpure EF-6000 which is a very good choice for your application. See this discussion on a Full flow filter. The replacement filters are $60 and should last a year.

I recently engaged in this type search. I could find no real info on the Grohe blue & decided I probably should buy a filter from a filter company. Originally I liked the everpure because it looked simple, but their cartridges are $. I ended up looking in Consumer Reports and they were not very favorable on the everpure. They liked the multipure best for under counter. We have good quality water to start with, but my wife wanted to be sure, so I bought the aquaverse. It is sitting in a box right here next to my desk, we should have cabinets this week. I am not sure I like how it comes apart to change the filter, but I have built a hinge assembly so it can swing out through the door I hope(will know for sure once I get the cabinet). It looks to me like I will probably spill water every time I change the filter.

Bottom line is I can only tell you CR rated the multipure very well. I am suspicious of a company that sells via MLM, but they originally shipped the wrong version and sent the additional parts out right away.

Thanks Bruce! (I just saw that you replied). I love the idea of sparkling water at the tap, I haven't found much info out there either! I'll check out the company you mentioned. I found an ad for a body glove filter that helps water all over the house (not sparkling water though). Having one solution for the whole house is really appealing, although it's hard to find how well these things work. In my next life I'll be a water consultant!!!

I would love to know if anyone has a Grohe Blue and if it is worth replacing our much-used Sodastream.
