Grohe 46 298 IE0 Ladylux Plus Handspray for 33.737 and 33.759, Chrome Finish
As far as delivery and price go I purchased through Amazon directly with my prime membership. I was pleased with how quickly the part came. While I have a hard time swallowing the $82 price tag for a piece of plastic, at least I didn't have to pay the almost $150 list price.
I have a Grohe Ladylux plus faucet (the one that swivels) that was installed just prior to my moving into this house in 1999. I don't believe any owner's manual was ever left for us, but if it was, it is long gone. A number of years ago, my (ex) husband had to take apart the faucet to either fix or replace the cartridge. I don't recall how good the water pressure was before that, but for the past several years, the water pressure has been very weak. Anyway, when he fixed the faucet years ago, a leak occurred in the top of the sprayer handle where the buttons are. Somehow he was able to use putty and get the sprayer back in working condition without leaking. I had forgotten about this when, a few months ago, I decided to mess around with the spray handle in order to improve my ever-declining water pressure. (I'll spare you the details, but I was following some advice I found online.) Long story short, I ended up making the situation much worse.
About a week ago, my water pressure dropped to almost nothing. I really had to do something. After hours of searching online for help troubleshooting, I finally figured out that the problem was a water flow regulator in the quick connect coupling. Once I took care of that problem, I had great water pressure which was now spouting out the top of the spray handle. Time for a new sprayer! (You really can't seem to get replacement parts).
I was very excited to receive this replacement, and it looked great. First problem, however, arose when I opened the box to find two plastic capsules. They seem to be flow regulators one was white, the other yellow. I knew they were to go into the spray handle, but I didn't know which one to use, or whether they both went in, etc. The instructions were little to no help. I spent an hour and 1/2 online trying to find information about these parts, which one should be installed with my unit, etc. I found nothing. So, finally I just decided to try them. I first tried the yellow. The handle leaked from where it connects to the hose. Then I tried to put the white one in with it both didn't fit. (That answered that question). Finally, I took out the yellow one and put in the white one which, to be fair, most closely resembled the piece in my old handle. At first it didn't seem to leak as much as with the yellow regulator in, but it did also leak. (Oh, and a tip each of these pieces has an arrow etched into it from what I could read on the instructions, you should install the regulator into the handle with the arrow pointing up into the handle and away from the end of the hose.) Both the yellow and the white pieces seemed to work, though I do believe there was water backed up in the handle behind the yellow valve when I unscrewed it from the hose. I still don't know what the difference is between the two parts, but I mention my experience in case you end up just as stumped as I am and can't find information online regarding your particular faucet model.
About the leak others have mentioned it, and I do believe it is just a result of this replacement piece being a hair roomier than the older handle. But it is something that MUST be dealt with immediately or you will have water running down the hose and under your sink. I was able to find an O-ring at Ace Hardware that did the trick. The o-ring that worked for me is the #54 ring made by Danco, Inc. Measurements are 11/16 x 9/16 x 1/6 (I'm sure Grohe products are metric, but the store didn't seem to have any metric o-rings, and this seems to be working fine for me) and the Stock number is 35768B. I think I paid about 50 cents for it, but it is also available online. Here is one link that is active as of the time of this review. http://www.amazon.com/Danco-54-O-Ring-Bag-35768B/dp/B000UF0P46/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1337982310&sr=8-1
Now that it is installed, I am really happy with my new sprayer (will be even happier once I get my drain pipes fixed.) Hope this helps!I had 15y old grohe kitchen faucet. Handle started to leak. This model fits fine, looks better, and seems to work fine.
Buy Grohe 46 298 IE0 Ladylux Plus Handspray for 33.737 and 33.759, Chrome Finish Now
The right thing was delivered on time. No problems with the seller.I wish I could say the same for Grohe. I downloaded their latest parts lists and diagrams for this faucet and its parts. The part numbers on their documents don't match what I find on the web. For example, the quick disconnect coupling at the end of the flex hose Grohe 46 092 000 Pull-Out Spray Replacement Hose, StarLight Chrome (opposite end to this spray head) is number 46315 on their diagram, but number 46138 in the current parts suppliers (or another number for a green one with a flow restrictor).
The handspray was delivered with two cartridges, one black and one green. If the numbers on my parts list are correct the black one is 08567 and the green one is 64689. Only one of these is to be used, apparently, and there are no instructions as to which to choose and what the effect of the choice is.
So my complaint is with Grohe, for lack of instructions and documentation, and inconsistent part numbers.
Good luck.I paid $87 for this product. It is a plastic shell with a faux chrome finish. But still, it is just a couple of plastic parts put together.
Based on material cost (I have worked in extruded plastic parts in a Colorado plant) it's under a dollar. Once the original form and shape have been designed it's cooky cutter time. Thousands for pennies! This applies to all parts in this thing. It has a screen filter and sprayer inside and a threaded connection piece that attaches to the hose leading to the main faucet body.
What outraged me even more is the fact that that little nothing of a "quick coupling" which is inside the Ladylux Handspray and consists of three plastic pieces costs 29 dollars. If you go to any plumbing store and ask for a part that has the identical function
but is made by a little known maker chances are you will pick it up for $2.99.
Grohe and Hans Grohe (two feuding brothers from Germany/in Germany) are two competing makers of a line of average quality
faucets and the like. I own several and find them functional but nothing to write how about. In fact the reason why I had to shell out $87 for the Ladylux Handspray is that the original WHICH WAS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD had crumbled and split and became useless. The spray pattern was gone even though I had cleaned the head several times. But most aggravating of all was that when I recently bought the Handspray I really only needed two parts of it, a coupler and the gray sprayer face plate. They were not available separately. Grohe told me then, only a few weeks ago, that I would have to purchase the entire hand-held unit for $87.00. NOW suddenly those two items are listed on Amazon.
But be that as it may, I still probably would have had to pay around 50 dollars for those two parts. No matter how you look at it,
Grohe is grotesquely overpriced even for a top notch product. But, sadly, the quality is at best average.
MY ADVICE: STAY AWAY FROM GROHE PRODUCTS!!

Our house came with Grohe "everything"... thought it was "top of the line" stuff but now I wonder! This is the 2nd replacement handspray unit for the same kitchen faucet; the first replacement cracked and leaked near the spray selector button. It's all plastic and not under significant water pressure at all.... so one would wonder why it should crack at all. Anyways.... if Grohe's business model includes ensuring a steady revenue stream from handspray replacements, it's working!!! Jeez......Nu Steel Gloss Collection Soap/lotion Pump
This is a thin steel jacket over a somewhat smaller container. Just to be clear, it holds plenty, and I have no problem with the actual capacity, but it isn't as much as you'd think by looking at the outside.
The pump works very well, but it doesn't deliver much with each stroke, about half of what you get from the cheap disposable pump bottles that hand soap comes in. I also have no problem with that, two pumps or four makes no difference to me, and the bottle is heavy enough by itself that it doesn't wobble the way a tiny plastic bottle would when nearly empty.
The problem is the rust. It had a bunch of rust spots on the bottle and along the edge of the collar within a month. The spots of the bottle will come off with some scrubbing, but who wants to do that? And the collar is so thin that I suspect it will rust completely through before next summer.
That said, it looks quite nice. And it would probably be just fine in a guest bathroom, or in the home of someone willing to put in the effort keeping it clean and dry.

I was very impressed with these particular splash guards as they are large enough so that the water doesn't get a chance to end up outside the tub area. Tidee Tubb supplied the caulking so I didn't need to go to a store to buy it. It's very easy to install. I would highly recommend them.Read Best Reviews of Tidee Tubb Splash Guards, Ultra Clear Here
We've always had a problem with water leaking from the tub onto the floor at the ends where the shower curtain doesn't fit tight. I had tried several stop gap procedures then chanced on the ad for Tidee Tub Splash Guards. The price was right, under $10.00, and the directions looked easy enough. When the package arrived I opened it and was a little surprised at the contents. The Splash Guards are very sturdy, the included tube of caulk is at least twice the size needed, and the directions were nice and clear. I followed the directions but instead of using my finger to clean up the excess caulk I used one of the kids popsicle sticks which I soaked for about ten minutes to get it nice and soft. The result was exactly what I wanted and has a very professional appearance. My wife loves it and no more wet floors. I enthusiastically recommend this product, and have ordered a second set for our other bathroom.Tidee Tubb Splash Guards, Ultra ClearWant Tidee Tubb Splash Guards, Ultra Clear Discount?
I moved into a new place with a deep soaking tub. I love the tub, but I hated the drips onto my bathroom floor. The edge of the tub is so thick that the shower curtain can't pull over enough to prevent water from dripping across the front of the tub onto the bathroom floor.So I searched for a solution, starting with something like this from Home Depot that used sticky adhesive instead of cauk. It was terrible, and it leaked. If I have one word of advice for someone looking for splash guards, it's that unless you are sure that your wall is at a perfectly 90 degree angle, don't go for those guards. There is always an element of uncertainty, and the drips that came when I used that guard were coming from the corner, where the wall did not meet the tub at the exact angle.
I saw all the great reviews for this guard and decided it try it. It was extremely easy to install -all I had to do was clean the area, apply the silicone, and then attach the guard. Then I waited for 24 hours (recommended on the silicone) and tested it. It (mostly) worked. I think the angles didn't all get covered, so I went over it a second time with the silicone, waited the requisite time, and then tried it again. It worked perfectly, and it's worked for the past week with no issues. I love especially that it curves around, so the water can stay in the tub. The previous one I bought was shaped like a triangle, so there wasn't any curving of the guard. I think that helps to keep the water in the tub and off my bathroom floor.
This is exactly what I was looking for, and I'm so happy I found it at Amazon.

Zenith Products Spacesaver Hawthorne
One thing I have noticed is that it is not very steady. It wobbles with even a small touch. Now, I did not mount this piece to the wall and I am positive it would be much more steady if I did. However, since we're only putting light items on it, at least at this point, I'm not going to mount it to make it more steady. The manufacturer does provide materials for mounting this to the wall if you want to do that.Put this together in 10 minutesno problem! It looks beautiful, has a lot of storage, and easily fits over my toilet. My only complaint is that if you look too closely at it, it looks plastic-y and cheap.

The reason for this purchase was to elevate all my toiletries off the toilet lid. However this isn't the product to do so with.First, the box was badly damaged and thus most of the pieces inside had the same end fate; most of the pieces were bent. As per instructed, you assemble the self in less than 15 minutes but because since the pieces were bent, the entire thing wobbled with the slightest touch (could have something to do with the fact that the bottom bracket connector wasn't soldered into the correct place causing me to bang on the bracket to get everything to fit.
Next, the thing is incredibly bulky and you would hit the shelf whenever you sat down.
It was a nice color and looked good but there wasn't any way to stop the shelf from moving.
Advise against this purchase.

I was surprised at the ease with which this went together without tools. There are those press-down pins that pop back up onto a hole on the connecting piece. The ends of the shelves are sort of folded over and slide down onto the frame. The instructions say to put the shelves on before you put the bottom "legs" on, but all 3 shelves came off when I tried to put the bottom pieces on, so IMO it would've been easier to simply connect the tops to the bottoms first. With the unit screwed into the wall (screws and anchors provided), it feels very secure, and the unit is attractive.Only 4 stars instead of 5 because one of the "arms" on the frame was bent when it arrived and I had to carefully bend it back a bit to get the shelf to fit onto it.

Let me start this with I personally like mine. It managed to fit in my teeny tiny bathroom just behind my toilet, even though I had to grunt and groan trying to place the bottom bar on because my toilet water valve was right in the way. After getting it in place, I figured there must be feet included with the package... which there is. But, I found them.Now, this space saver is a bit wobbly. You put it together by sliding the pieces together and they're secured with a small push... button thing that snaps in place.
The racks slide down on the metal bars that you see there and just rest there, so they aren't secured down. A non issue for most, but it's definitely not built for a lot of wear and tear.
All in all, it's large, as pictured, semi-sturdy and just what I needed for my bathroom.
4/5 stars from this happy customer. As always, I'll post a revised review if anything goes wrong.

I also looked for a long time at different canisters, i held off for a while on buying these, because they are expensive. When they first arrived i was a little diappointed, the dark brown canister and lid is a beautiful quality ceramic, however the fancy bottom piece and the top handle are made of a thick plastic.

Perhaps if I had been the one using them they
would have lasted longer. Plastic is thin for easy
squeezing.Amazing!!!!!!!! These bottles are good quality, and the perfect size! I buy a ton of products economy size, which is too big to fit in my shower rack, and these bottles sure came to the rescue. Came with some labels that seem fairly water-resistant, I won't know until I use them a few times but luckily my liquids are different colors anyway. Another reviewer mentioned that the bottles are hard to squeeze, but I'm not having any trouble at all.The bottles themselves leave something to be desired, they are hard plastic and not as easy a squeeze as the silicon ones. There isn't a simple way to label them that won't wash off and they are all identical in shape/color so it may be difficult to differentiate between conditioner and lotion for example. The silicon tubes (or toobs) you can buy are much better in that regard.
However, the lids that are included are priceless! You get every size and they screw right on any shampoo, body wash, lotion etc so you can fill up travel bottles quickly and with no mess. With a ten dollar price tag, I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again just for the lids.

I love the Tottles and the ingenious solution of having pour spouts to match virtually any bulk shampoo bottle as fill-ups.One of the reviews said these were hard to squeeze but I didn't find that so. It's a nice soft plastic.
I think I'm saving money too because it is very easy to control how much shampoo I use (now about the size of a quarter Before Tottles it was sort a quarter size blob.) And, bonus plus, I can now match the amount of conditioner I use so the two bottles run out at the same time (something that has alluded me for many years to my great showering chagrin.)
My only complaint/recommendation would be to also make a smaller size set so I could take my Tottles Traveling past the scrutiny of Homeland Security. I was sad to go on a trip and have to leave my Tottles home.

I have a panel shower console which hand held shower holder cracked and need replacement. I look everywhere for a replacement and Amazon had the closest match to the original. Actually this holder is made of sturdier material. It was easy to install and came at a great price.Bought this to replace a Kohler hand-held shower bracket. The Kohler one was plastic, too. Kohler wants an absurd amount to replace this. Just unscrewed the old one, put this replacement in. The two screw holes on this were an exact match for the Kohler hand-held. The Kohler hand-held fits in it perfectly. I've been using it for 2-3 weeks. Looks identical (except this one is larger), functions identically. Save yourself some money. My Kohler hand-held shower is Kohler K8502-CP "MasterShower" Hand Held Shower.
