Kohler K-596-VS Faucet Spouts and Kits, Vibrant Stainless, 0.375

Excellent faucet. We have had it for 3 months. The wide spray is very useful. The tap does splash back a bit when turned on with full water pressure if you are rinsing out something underneath it (meaning good water pressure coming out of the tap). The spray head is easy to grip, easy to toggle between the spray and stream functions, returns to position quite easily and I find it way easier to use this type of pull down spray head, then the pull out kind that we used to have. The colour is really nice and the quality seems very good.

I have had the Kohler kitchen faucit for about one month. I have have it installed in home build in 1995 in California and replaces a Price Pfister G133-100 which had previously been replaced. So I assume lifetime of these type of kitchen faucets is on the order of about 7-8 years. So I can't speak to the reliability of the Kohler that was installed in my kitchen. I actually wanted a Moen for about 2X the price but I was concerned that the 1.5" Moen diameter vs 1 3/8 for Kohler requirement would not work out for my 19 year old sink, But it would have worked just fine as the plumber asserted. In any case, I am quite happy with the looks and operation of the Kohler faucet. The water flow is a little reduced from the Price Pfister but I am fine with that. Also, the plaster is not excessive as the hight the water emits from the nozzle is higher from the older style kitchen faucets in the mid nineties. The nozzle is indeed plastic as others have pointed out but it is not easy to tell visually. I can't speak to the reliability of the faucet as one month is too short to make an assessment. The nozzle retracts nicely into its original position without being magnetic as some competing solutions seems to suggest. Also, there are two spray settings: the usual center spray which acts like a normal faucet and a broader spray. Once you select the spray mode the faucet will stay on that spray mode until you select the rocker switch to turn it the other. Even if you turn off the faucet the spray mode stays the same. Also, I am not using the stainless baseplate which came with the faucet as I decided to cover up the two holes with hole covers. So the installation is essentially single hole. Also, the faucet has no angular stop which means you can turn the faucet 360 degrees or 720 degrees + more in principle, although you will twist the rubber hose underneath the sink. Not a problem for me.

Got this for my home renovation and sitting in my storage as I could not install it without a specific reducer that cannot be bought online... and cannot be found in the UAE or Europe. I discovered this too late from my contractor and cannot return it 😭

This is a very nice faucet but you need to buy connectors if you are buying it for use outside of USA as the pipes are only American fit. The weight for the put back on the pipe was useless and difficult to use so I had to also buy another weight separately to install on it and grease the pipe but it works fine now. The pressure button seams to be broken on the second day so if you care for that too it may not be good to get this faucet.

La marca es garantía de calidad. Mi esposa esta contenta con las dos opciones de chorro de agua.
