Arsdale Single-Handle Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet with Soap/Lotion Dispenser in Oil-Rubbed Bronze

Love the look and easy to use! Love the flat spray of the nozzle when you squeeze the button! Would definitely buy again!

I get it...we all wish we had more hands. Unfortunately, if you use your kitchen every day and bake and/or cook and make a lot of dishes that you hand wash like pans and mixing bowls, you’re gonna want an assistant to hold the button on the back of the nozzle for you. It’s a nice design, has a little shape to it to make it look a little unique but my favorite feature was the handle that pulls forward to turn on and off then swivels left and right for hot and cold. Most of them pull out for on and off and then you push back to scorch your hands, whoops!!! Maybe it’s forward for....nope. There are many things wrong with me and faucet algebra is one of them. So I really liked the design that swivels left/right for hot and cold. Buuuut when you want to use the sprayer you have to hold the button down on the back of the pull out faucet. I’ll keep this one around for a while and see if I stop missing being able to spray the water into my hand washed pans or if I get used to paying a kid to stand next to the sink and hold the button. If that’s a deal breaker for you...we should start a Facebook group because nobody else mentions it on sink features.

Easy to install, looks great, and works well. I would like a little more pressure, but that may not be the faucet. The wide spray is nice, but I would like more than one spray option. I've only had it in use about a week and despite the two minor issues noted above I am very happy with my faucet as it does meet my expectations.

The Good, The Bad, and the Beautiful. Pros: Massive, solid construction; Excellent gaskets, alignment tabs for both main body on plate and sprayer head into arch, adjustable for the rotational angle you want to come to hand and "blade" alignment. "Joystick" control handle operates smoothly, and contrary to some reviews, shuts off fine as long as you push it all the way back into the "V" of the motion. Flow IS a bit slow, but the water-saving restricter can be removed, consulting Kohler's instructions. The hoses seem robust enough, and the sprayer hose has a "click-on" connector which, fully pushed on over dual O-rings, clicks into place with tabs, and is holding pressure fine at 40 psi. The sprayer hose's bob-weight CLIPS on vs screwed together - NICE! Cons: This height and weight ABSOLUTELY requires a stiffening "stabilizer" plate for thin metal sinks, such as stainless, to resist flexing. Astoundingly, Kohler does NOT include this likely $3 cost plate (to them) in a $200 faucet, nor is one normally in stock in either normal building supply houses. This is the only reason why I give it four vs five stars - just idiotic! Instead, the buyer is told to make one out of plywood, which is fine if you are tool-equipped and handy. I have included a drawing for a plate for three-hole 4" center-to-center sinks, although for this faucet, you only need the center hole. Either jigsaw or a 1 1/2" hole saw will suffice (no bigger - you need the wood bearing area for the ring and tightening screws). Measure the sill to ensure it will fit flush (mine would not accommodate a 3" wide plate, only 2 7/8", due to the front lip on the steel deck). Also check you'll clear the fourth (soap dispenser) hole. In case of any future leaks, you can apply a piece of "Stick and Seal" or foil over the top, sides, and inside holes of your plate, to preclude rot. Another option is a hard plastic RP37490 Stabilization Plate for $12 from Home Depot, also available from multiple other suppliers at about the same price. It is spec'd at 3" deep, so if your deck is, like mine, a bit less than 3", you may need to file a "round" on the top front edge of the plastic, to fit flush. The other minor issue is with the sprayer button - it does require you to hold the button in to maintain the spray vs stream, unlike many other manufacturers whose spray heads have either a rocker or a toggle or a momentary "hold to lock on" button. Be very careful starting the main hold nut - mine very much wanted to cross-thread - once properly threaded, it's very easy to turn, so if it's at all hard, probably cross-threaded. Side Notes: If you prefer the handle to the left, it can be so installed, but the handle will open away from you rather than toward, and you need to reverse the hot and cold lines if you want it to go "hot-left"/"cold-right". Some reviewers have complained about very slow flow from one side or the other. I strongly recommend holding the metal bottom of the feeder hoses with moderate (non-crushing) grip while tightening the nut onto the feed line - they want to turn with the nut, and you want to prevent them twisting excessively and "kinking". A very light coating of Vaseline/petroleum jelly or KY can be applied to both the feed hose washers and the sprayer hose connector's O-rings. When spinning on the main nut, the screws tend to turn in, so you may need to back them out again, to have enough available thread to tighten. Oh, and the height of the stream means you need to hold objects being hosed IN the sink, else there will be splash all over the place. The soap dispenser is all plastic, operates well (and easily) and has a good capacity, fillable from above or below. Summary: A beautiful, robustly-made and stylish installation. We'll see how it lasts...

This Kohler Single-Handle kitchen faucet with the pull down sprayer is exactly what we were looking for. I chrome finish that is durable and looks great....it has very clean lines and fits our semi-modern decor. The soap dispenser is a great add on. This is another quality product from Kohler and we are very happy with this kitchen faucet. I great product and we recommend this faucet!

The Kohler Arsdale faucet is a very nice looking addition to my kitchen. Everything needed for the install is included, including braided supply lines (3/8" fittings), hardware and 3 hole cover plate. The faucet is fully assembled and ready to go. The polished chrome looks good and does not show fingerprints or water marks. The pull down spray head movement is smooth, and docks with a magnetic mechanism and hose weight. The spray pattern is a wide fan that is powerful but does not splash back. The spray and flowrate is good, even with homes with well water. The soap dispenser is a nice touch and fits the hole that once held a sprayer. The handle has a different movement and does take time to get used to the motion of it. This faucet uses ceramic disk valves, and also comes with a limited lifetime warranty. I look forward to years of enjoying this faucet.

This is my favorite kitchen faucet. My second favorite is the one I am taking out. I love the pull down sprayer and I really like the one handle style which leaves room for the soap dispenser. When I need soap it is only a few inches away. This Arsdale, by Kohler, is the latest in style and the poilshed chrome is perfect for my kitchen. I'm sure I will receive many years of use from this faucet.

Kohler Faucets are known for their quality, and this one is very solid and well made. There are few plastic parts. This faucet was relatively easy to install, it would have been much easier if our old faucet hadn't been so corroded, and if our sink cabinet was wider. There was one part of the instructions that wasn't clear. In the instructions it told us to purge the line before connecting. We read the instructions a couple of times and couldn't figure out how to do that. We just let the water run a bit once it was finished. When I unpacked the faucet, I was very impressed with the weight that helps the spray nozzle retract. It is heavy and I thought for sure, it would retract on its own. After installing the faucet and testing it out, the spray head doesn't retract on it's own, like I hope; but the nozzle reaches to all corners of the sink and with my hand guiding it, it retracts. We've installed this faucet in the our "man cave" which we've just redone. We are joking that this faucet is perfect for it, since the handle looks like a beer tap and it operates like a joystick. Seriously though, this is a very well made faucet and should last a long time.

KOHLER Arsdale Single-Handle Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet with Soap/Lotion Dispenser in Polished Chrome - a Home Depot Seeds Program Review I broke my kitchen faucet. Well, not actually “broke” but I dropped a pan on it, creasing it and creating a pinhole leak that managed to make a fine spray four or five feet away. The old faucet had a separate sprayer handle that I almost never used, it didn’t offer much clearance to the bottom of the sink so I couldn’t put very large dishes under it and now, with the pinhole leaked, it managed to wet the counters and floor. I figured it was time for a new faucet so I got this Kohler Arsdale Single-Handle Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet that seems to solve all of the problems with the old faucet pretty well. The Kohler Arsdale has a pull-down sprayer that is very convenient and has a nice long reach. I find I’ve used it more often than I used to old one the entire time I had it. The bottom of the faucet head is a full 16 inches above the bottom of the sink which leaves lots of space for big bowls and pans. The hot and cold water are controlled by a single handle that acts sort of like a joystick which will take a little time for me to get used to. In the place of the old sprayer there’s a soap dispenser. I did put some hand soap in it but don’t really use it that much. I suppose I could fill it with dish soap but it doesn’t have enough reach to make that particularly useful. Installation was a piece of cake. It took me about two hours with the first hour needed to remove the old faucet. The large nut holding it in has corroded enough to make removal very difficult. Lucky the grandchildren weren’t around to learn new words. Once the old one was out, putting the new one in took about 15 minutes. One thing they mention in the installations documentation is to put a wood backing just under the sink to hold the large nut. This faucet it much heavier than my old one and Kohler suggest using the wood if the faucet is being installed on a sink with thin stainless like mine. I had to remove the faucet, find the wood, drill a hole in it and reinstall, all of which took another 45 minutes. Even with the wood backing, the weight and height of the faucet allows some wobble, not like it’s loose but enough to move the stainless steel. Maybe I should replace my sink with a better quality one. This Kohler Arsdale Single-Handle Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet is a very nice looking faucet and I really like the pull-out sprayer. The single handle is a little different for me but nothing I won’t get used to pretty quickly. The separate soap dispenser is kind of novel but I’m not sure how much I’ll use it. It is pretty top heavy and requires a heavy duty sink or a good backing under the sink if yours isn’t. This faucet should last me for quite a long time and Kohler offers a limited lifetime warranty on the faucet in case it starts to leak.

First for comparison. I have had many faucets and they have plastic in several places. Usually in cortical locations where you know you will be replacing the faucet before too long. This faucet is extremel;y well made. All major areas are metal The lines are braided which is even better. A feature I especially like is the button on the pull out handle. This is something that is such a great feature. All other faucets have not been like that. If you want a solid yet really nice looking faucet, this is the one to buy. Super simple to install and rugged.
