    Grohe Faucet
    I hope you can help us. We are having a new counter top installed and had to chose a new faucet. Our kitchen is tiny and we wanted a Grohe faucet but some of them were very overpowering for our kitchen. We actually found a bathroom faucet that looks just like the version of the kitchen faucet but it scaled down and would look much better in our kitchen. Our question is can we use the bathroom faucet in the kitchen. Since the holes are going to be drilled for this is it standard or do we have to go with a kitchen faucet?

    4" or 8" center? 4" may look a little small. But, it's your kitchen. Faucets come in 4" and 8" centers. You will not have a spray. Does the bath faucet swing? You will need that with a 2 bowl sink.

    Hello MarieSmith123...

    I assume you have selected Single Column faucet that utilizes one hole in the counter top ...

    Yes, you can use bathroom faucet in the kitchen. The only problem is that bathroom faucets have smaller ( low - and shorter ) spouts. That may be a problem when used on kitchen sink as you may find the spout too low to put large pot under neath it. Also, small spouts may not reach larger kitchen sink deep into the bowl. Moreover, bathroom faucets don't have "Pull Out" spout with spray options - a feature that you may find handy to have especially when doing dishes.

    Hope that helps. Back to you. Milo
