Grohe vs Hansgrohe taps

[shopper150]

Is there any difference in terms of quality or warranty between the above two? I know they are the same manufacturers, but I wanted to check if hansgrohe was the 'premium' brand, or are they the same, just different designs?

I've got both in my house, mix of bath/kitchen taps, and thermostatic shower systems. Out of the 2, hansgrohe all day long.

Thanks for that.
I just googled it, appears as though they are not the same company!

They are not the same company ..
A family fall out and then went their own way in the the same business..
Both premium products though ..

We bought a sink a few days ago for our utility - only to find out the sink is specially made to fit a certain set of Hansgrohe taps! Taps cost more than the sink! Ahh well its only money

Can someone help me? Will the above kitchen mixer be OK for a low pressure system?

We were told that no Hansgrohe taps will run well on low pressure.
