Cursiva 4 in. Centerset 2-Handle Bathroom Faucet in Vibrant Brushed Nickel

Great faucet that was easy to install. The instructions weren't the best for an amateur installer. There were a couple of little things like it didn't say which way up on the base plate gasket (rubber washer ring goes down.) I liked that it does not take plumbers putty for the drain. We like the smooth quarter turn on and off and it's easy to adjust the temperature. It does have a water conserving spray so it saves water. The water spray does not go straight down, it sprays forward a little so you easily reach the spray not having to put your hand clear to the back of the sink. It does tend to collect water on the actual faucet during use which could spot if not cleaned up regularly. One thing we like is that the drain is a push to close/push to open so you don't have the connecting rod from behind the faucet to the drain. One less thing to mess with but you do have to reach through the dirty water in the sink to release the drain.

I'm doing a simple review of the Kohler Cursiva 4 in. Centerset 2-Handle Bathroom Faucet in Vibrant Brushed Nickel. Now I've brought this up in several faucet reviews in the past. I live in a city where about four years ago the changed the water source and now we have a scaling and build up system that requires constant either removal and replace or inner part replacements. As things go this would have been a very quick install if I hadn't glued the vanity top to the cabinet making it so all work had to be bottom then top from the door. All in all with this situation give yourself an hour or if you can remove the top and put on the faucet, drain and lines before hooking up the drain and connecting the valves it will only take about a half hour. This is of course with the proper tools. This brushed Kohler has very smooth handle movements. Very durable feeling finish. The spout is flatter and widened for a somewhat different look but still the same pressure. It also has the wider press drain cap which is so much easier to set up and deal with than the double stick and plunger system. Great price for the style, look and heavy duty quality.

I replaced my existing bathroom faucet with the KOHLER Cursiva 4 in. Centerset 2-Handle Bathroom Faucet in Vibrant Brushed Nickel. It looks good and works perfectly. Over the last couple of remodeling projects I have come to appreciate the brushed nickel finish that always look good and shows no finger prints like the old chrome faucet did. The mid-arch design is the best solution of washing hands and even has enough clearance to fill large water glasses or small watering pots, etc. Installation is straight forward and can be done with just a pair of pliers and an adjustable wrench. I used a stubby adjustable wrench since there is never a lot of room for tightening fittings under the sink. I also used a basin wrench to make tightening the water line fittings to the faucets much easier. While not essential, the basin wrench I bought years ago at Home Depot has proven very useful many times and this was one of them. I took out the old faucet and put in the new Kohler faucet in about forty-five minutes. I am sure a pro could do it much faster. I like the quarter turn faucet controls. They are work perfectly and should be very low maintenance. The drain stopper is a push-on/push-off type. So, there is no push/pull rod to adjust. Today I would never buy the old kind. The push-on/push-off is far better and easy for my grandkids to use. I like the Kohler brand. This faucet looks great and is a good value

Just what my newly renovated bathroom needed – a touch of contemporary elegance from Kohler. The faucet was very easy to install and secure with plastic nuts over individual stems. Then just get proper length flex supply lines and connect the water. The drain hook- up was just as easy, especially with the cleverly designed pop-up stopper. Just push stopper down to close the drain, and push on it again to pop open. No more “pull-up” stem on the back of the faucet to adjust and clean.

This Kohler faucet has proven to be a great bathroom faucet. Trouble free, easy install, looks modern, good water flow, and clean, smooth lines. My observations: • Install is extremely standard and maybe even defined as ‘easy’ for most people. Set aside 45 minutes and most of that time will be removing your old faucet. Actual install took me about 15 to 20 minutes. Most of time savings came from the ‘drain body’. Because it’s a totally separate from the faucet it makes the install much easier. To open and close the ‘clicker’ drain, you simply push down on the cap vs pulling on a rod behind the faucet. I’ve never had a ‘clicker’ drain like this, however it seems to work well so far and it saved me about 10 minutes on the install. • The overall quality of the unit is on the mark. Everything feels substantial and nothing feels cheap or flimsy. The handles also move back and forth smoothly and quietly. • The unit is easy to clean and for the most parts stays somewhat clean on its own. It’s doesn’t seem to hold as many water spots on it as some of my other faucets. • Everything seals up nicely with no leaks; of course a proper install is key to prevent leaks. Follow the directions and use your thread seal tape on all the plumbing connections under the sink. • This unit has ceramic disc valves which will help with the product life. • My faucet was in perfect shape. Not a scratch or anything wrong with the faucet. I really like this faucet and expect many trouble free years of service. I recommend.

The handle has a scraping sound on the cold side, it's not bad it's a nice faucet otherwise.

Look elegantly. Very solid & steady in turning water off & on. Strongly recommend it.

This faucet has a great look to it. The knobs turn very easy. Feels like they are gliding on ice. The faucet met all of my expectations. The only thing with this faucet. I would only recommend this faucet, if you have bigger sink bowls. I have small sink bowls and the spout gets in my way and I have to move my face to one side of the spout. I could have returned it for a smaller faucet, but I did not because I really love this faucet.
