The Minta kitchen faucet system designed by GROHE combines sublime aesthetics and functionality for a modern kitchen display. While the formal design remains true to clean cylindrical shapes, variations to the Minta are incorporated through the ProGrip surface on the levers and pull-out sprays serving to ensure steady handling and as a deterrent for unsightly fingerprints. Another visually pleasing element is a spiral reinforced hose, which red dot praises for its professional level.
Signature features of the Minta include: a locking, dual spray pull-down with an integrated minimalist head, a Grohe SilkMove ceramic cartridge that assures more accurate water temperature transitions from hot to cold, and the Grohe WhisPer technology that effectuates a gentle water stream sound instead of irritating whistling.
Minta is available in either a slightly matte SuperSteel InfinityFinish or the sparkly Grohe StarLight chrome.
