Review on G4398 by Wiktor Winiewski ᠌

Excellent mixer - the quality is at the level of more expensive models. It is a pity that today's fashionable technologies such as: a water saving system, two pressure modes, cold water comes first, even if hot water is turned on (as in IKEA). Then there would be TOP Pros: 1. High quality workmanship. Good materials, precision workmanship. No backlash, the movement of the levers is very smooth. 2. The spout rotates 360 degrees. Thanks to this, it is possible to install not at a right angle, as well as turn the body so that the main lever (and the lever for filtered water) is under the right or left hand 3. The coating is very steep - drops, scale, traces of lime from hard water are much less visible than on chrome faucets. 4. The flexible spout is very useful for cleaning large or rectangular sinks. Rinse off leftover food 5. The presence of a supply under the filter 6. Surprisingly fits in kitchens with both modern and traditional designs 7. Well packaged to reduce the risk of damage in transit. And just nice to hold in your hands Different cons: 1. An instruction in 2022 was enclosed. But this is a kind of universal brochure for a bathroom faucet. Installation is typical - it is carried out without problems, but for a product of this level of performance, the absence of a simple instruction for it is very strange. + see the following note on filter installation. 2. I remember - I cry and laugh at myself))) I was going to install Aquaphor Morion 102S with reverse osmosis. His installation kit is absolutely standard for all Aquaphors - he installed it many times, but always in a separate tap from the filter kit. This time I decided not to install an extra crane, but to bring it to Grappo. The water supply from the filter to the mixer is realized through a hollow long bolt. That is, through it the mixer is attached to the sink, and through it water is supplied from the filter to the spout. A double nut with a spout for a hose was screwed on it. It was not possible to put a water supply hose on the spout. I tried to fix the mounting nut from the Aquaphor kit on this bolt instead of the complete nut - it didn’t work, because. different diameters. I rolled up to the construction market, Leroy, tried several options for adapters and fittings - they failed to make friends. I started googling, re-read all the reviews on Yamarket. They write that everything gets up without problems - I'm shocked))). As a result, I found a review on YouTube, and in the comments they suggested that there were not a single nut, but two, complete with a mixer. That is, a hose is pulled onto the first nut with a spout, and the second nut, previously put on the hose, compresses the hose stretched onto the first nut when it is tightened. That is, the idea is generally the same as on Aquaphor. It's just that in my case, these 2 nuts were so twisted that it was not even visible that they were separate. I untwisted it with two pliers. I put the hose on the first nut, holding it with pliers - it goes very tight. Of course, he blunted it himself, but if there were a simple instruction in the kit, he would save a lot of time.
