Is this faucet a "high arch" or is it low? Any issues with fitting big pots beneath it? I have a high arch faucet now, not sure if I'll like low?

The is a high arch and there should not be a problem with big pots. I would call Grohe to make sure because everyone has their own opinions.

I keep forgetting to measure the height and I am not home now, but wanted to get back to you. It is high enough for me, but I don't use the very tall pots. I really like the faucet and I installed it myself, but I have a feeling it might not be tall enough for your expertise. If you want me to measure it let me know.

I think it would qualify as a high arch. The base and arched part are at least 18" above the counter top.

Yes, it is low, but so far I have not had any problems washing my large pot. The Axor Starck is supposed to be a high arch faucet, check it out.

High arch, not low at all. No problem with any pots including professional size. We also have a large stainless sink so that helps too.

On this particular brand and style, I have seen no differences between the lower and higher priced faucets. I love this one!! I have seen some others where the drain cover is of a lower quality, and they do look terrible with use in our area due to the hard water. Also, the color indicator for the water temp can wear off with a lower quality faucet, but I have seen it occur in a higher quality faucet as well. All in all, I don't see much difference be in my opinion. Buy this faucet, you will love it!!!

I have a single sink, rather large and deep. I love this faucet, but not for the pull-out feature. As others have noted, it is rather stiff to pull out. So if you use the pull-out or pull-down feature a lot, you would probably be happier with a pull-down head. I seldom use the pull-out feature, but really wouldn't miss it if it were gone.

I think this faucet is terrific! No problems getting nor maintaining temperature. Check water valves. If cannot get right, check with plumber.

I never questioned the faucet dimensions; I just liked the faucet, its build characteristics, and appearance. It was also one of the few high-quality that didn't project above the countertop obtrusively. When it cam I installed it in a very standard builders' grade sink opening. It has worked wonderfully ever since. It is one of the best faucets I have ever owned. If I could get to the hole, I would measure it for you. I encountered some issues when installing it, but these were consequences of how the previous builders' plumber installed it in a new home. All were overcome successfully with a little thought. The hardest part was removing the first faucet-they didn't think anyone would want to do that for years.

Lower than replaced faucet. Can not give you an exact number. I have learned to live with it.

Here is some info for you. I haven't installed mine yet but it looks and feels like it is made well. Not light like some of the cheap ones.http://www.todaysdesignhouse.com/specsheets/522342-s.pdfhttp://www.todaysdesignhouse.com/plumbing.aspx?node=none&finish;=00000000&item;=522342

Depends on the height of the sink. The bottom of the spout to the base of the faucet is aboout 4 inches only. I have discovered that you need to install the faucet as far back from the back of the sink due to the "throw" of the water from the spout - 2.5 to 3.5 inches depending on the water pressure. I had 4 installed with undermount sinks - they look good. However, in order to eliminate mineral deposit stains on the open spout trough, you should wipe it after every use. Incidently, any faucet of proper height for vessel sinks will "SPASH" out and could leave you WET!

I think the angle of water into the sink is just fine. We have a Kraus single bowl kitchen sink and it works great. The pull out appears to be heavy as it is harder to extend...perhaps the hose is a tighter fit or there is too much of it? I like how it keeps your last setting for spray or flow. Overall a nice faucet with a great look.

I don't think it will be a problem for you, but it depends on your sense of space. We definitely felt like the faucet was enormous when we first installed, especially compared to what we replaced. It took next to no time to fall in love with the look, performance and functionality of it. We do have to 'train' people on how to use it, since there is the main on/off and also an on/off for the pot filler arm. We love it, and our sink is only 20"x22" and it isn't overwhelming there at all

Love this faucet! It is on the taller side but I needed the height because I am using it with a vessel sink. So far no problems with the finish and it's been in use for over 6 months. Hope this helps.

This faucet is not going to work for any sink taller than 2", which is the max that I would try to pair this faucet with. I have not had any issues with the sturdiness or performance of my faucet... and LOVE the finish. Hope this is helpful

Hello Maria.Regarding the faucet, not yet installing, but the connections are standard.You need to leave a space to accommodate the connections and hose behind the chrome finish.Hope that helps.

Hi. I actually bought it for my rental property. I haven't gotten complaints about the faucet. Sorry that I couldn't provide more information.

I bought this faucet and use it on a very low profile vessel sink (3 inches high) above the counter. I am an architect and I think this would work with an under-counter mounted sink, however I think it is more important to note that these are low flow meaning designed for minimal splash for the issues of a vessel sink. If that doesn't bother you then mine mounted flush on the deck of the vessel sink (Kohler Yin Yang sink) if that helps you.

I would say the faucet stands at about 10"h from base to top of arch. It protrudes over the sink about 6 in and is probably 8" from front to back. The spout swivels, though, so I haven't found it to be inconvenient at all. In fact, I love how they stand out in our master bathroom.
