Comments (2)I'll speak to my Sister - she needed a new bathroom 20years ago but just hasn't got round to it. Every time I flush I step away as the water comes scarily close to the rim!!!...See MoreCopper basin, Chrome Mixer....
Comments (13)I love the mix as well. Matt chrome would look good as mentioned, but I think it looks nice even with the chrome. I've seen designer kettles using shiny chrome with a band of copper and it looks amazing, so this is no different. Not sure about the black taps with copper unless your room featured black and no chrome....See MoreSmall bathroom layout ideas and good bathroom brands
Comments (9)Both Hansgrohe and (Friedrich) Grohe are German companies; Friedrich was a son of Hans who went on his own in the 1930s, so they share a certain heritage. These days, Grohe is larger and no longer family owned. Both produce outside Germany as well as on their original German sites still. Both produce "basic" and "high-end" ranges. They're both regarded well back home in Germany, much of the choice is down to personal preference. Hansgrohe is on average slightly more expensive (but not on everything). They also own the Axor design brand which has a more "ecletic" selection. One can mix-and-match; in our bath (bit messy, sorry - we're using it for the washing up while waiting for the kitchen to be installed), the mixer is Grohe as is the shower wall outlet, the shower rail and head shower arm (just above the shower screen) are Hansgrohe pieces. At least the chromed finishes are very close for the two: Both can be sourced well below retail list prices - if you're prepared to wait, German online sellers for bathroom goods tend to have many-months delivery timelines. For Grohe essentials (the classical Grotherm mixers) at least, any German DIY shop stocks these at very attractive prices (the difference to the UK retail price list will pay for the ferry ticket and fuel)....See MoreIKEA bathroom fittings - are they any good?
Comments (4)Thanks both. I have an IKEA kitchen and the tap is actually one of my favourite bits so I was thinking along the same lines as you, Sarah. My only regret with the kitchen is not buying IKEA appliances as the neff ones I bought don’t integrate well. I’m wondering if the same could happen if I just bought the basin/taps from IKEA and tried to integrate them with alternative cabinets etc....See MoreCircle Automation - Home Technology
