GROHE appliances: review and lineup

GROHE is a German faucet maker based in Düsseldorf and owned by LIXIL. In the luxury kitchen, it's known for GROHE Blue, which delivers filtered chilled and sparkling water through your main kitchen faucet. That's the key difference from a separate boiling-water tap: one faucet handles regular hot and cold plus filtered chilled, medium and sparkling water.
Our database covers the GROHE Blue Chilled & Sparkling 2.0 starter kit (about $4,639 list in StarLight Chrome and $6,262 in SuperSteel). An under-sink chiller and carbonator on 115 V chills water to 43 to 50°F and produces about 3.2 gallons an hour. A push-button with a color LED ring picks the water type, and the GROHE app, over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, tracks CO2 and filter status and sets portions. Choose a pull-down (31251) or pull-out (31608) spout. Budget for running costs: the filter, CO2 cylinder and cleaning cartridge are sold separately, and the filter is rated for 600 liters (158 gallons).
GROHE's US limited lifetime warranty covers faucet parts and finishes for products sold after July 1, 2020, and registration activates it. Terms for the electronics and chiller aren't stated on grohe.us, so ask. GROHE's boiling tap, GROHE Red, isn't listed on the US site.
Who should shop GROHE: families who drink a lot of sparkling or chilled water, buyers who want to retire a countertop soda maker, and anyone who wants one faucet instead of two. Who should skip it: tea drinkers who want boiling water (see Zip or InSinkErator) and buyers who dislike recurring filter and CO2 costs.

Questions about GROHE
Does GROHE Blue make boiling water?
No. GROHE Blue delivers filtered chilled, medium-sparkling and sparkling water, plus your regular hot and cold tap water. GROHE Red, the boiling version, isn't listed on the US site. For boiling water, look at the Zip HydroTap, or InSinkErator's near-boiling Indulge system.
What are the running costs of GROHE Blue?
Plan for filters, CO2 cylinders and cleaning cartridges, all sold separately. The filter is rated for 600 liters, about 158 gallons, and the GROHE app tracks filter and CO2 levels so you know when to reorder. How often you replace them depends on how much filtered and sparkling water you drink.
What warranty does GROHE Blue have?
GROHE's US limited lifetime warranty covers faucet parts and finishes for products sold after July 1, 2020, and you activate it by registering. Separate terms apply to electronics, and the chiller's coverage isn't stated on grohe.us, so ask the seller for the written terms before you buy.
