I just got a portable dishwasher but I can’t fit the hose on the faucet... is there an extension I can buy
Asked by Court December 5, 20182
AnswersI do have an extension to where I can hook in a garden hose to the faucet by removing the diffuser. I use is to fill my 80 gallon aquarium. I use an extension designed to fill a water bed I found at a local supply shop. I would think that would probably work in your case if the portable dishwasher has a connection the same size as a garden hose. I am sure you can find one on the internet.

Asked by Boris December 2, 20182
AnswersIf the leak is in the line that goes from the hot water supply to the faucet, you can replace it (Home Depot would have this water line). If the leak is above the place where the hot water line attaches to the copper line that goes up inside the faucet, you cannot replace it.

Asked by NOPLUMBER October 25, 20182
AnswersWe replaced ours with the same model as I wrote to Kohler and it was covered. You can get parts, but the problem is that things like rubber gaskets are NOT covered under warrenty and while the parts are not expensive, it take a long time to open up the unit and replace them -- a plumber's fees may exceed the cost of a new unit including installation. Best of luck.

While this looks nice, it does not hold up as it should for the price. I had this installed less than 8 years ago. After 5 the handle began to leak and the ellen-wrench tightening spot stripped after a year. Kohler replaced it at no charge, but the install was complicated and annoying. Now, less than later, the same issue is occuring and the sprayer is leaking in 2 places. I will have to buy an intire new unit (different brand) and pay to have it installed. Not happy.

Faucet had minuscule leak which eventually got under the nickel plating causing that to fail. Leak worsened and then noticed the retaining ring below the handle had split. I did get over ten years service but would not have expected failures like these in a high quality product. Ten years really isn't very long.

I bought this, in chrome, from my local HD store in 2006. The faucet has served well except the back of the base, just below the handle, started corroding. It is now to the point of swelling and has broken the chrome ring at the top of that base (picture showing the corrosion should be below; if the corrosion has been cropped by the website LMK) and has a sharp shard of exposed metal.
I have the receipt. How do I get a free replacement, and of what? Otherwise, a fine product.

After a couple of years first the control handle started to leak at the base. Not possible to tighten the mount, I had to buy a new mount unit and have a plumber install it. Next year same thing with the faucet. One star for quality, four stars for design.

FORTE 3-HOLE SINGLE-HANDLE SIDE SPRAYER KITCHEN FAUCE
I searched and searched for a "shorter" goose-neck faucet and this Kohler faucet is the only one that fit my needs. It is expensive and if it hadn't been EXACTLY what I wanted, I would not have purchased it. My husband did not want me to get it - he said Kohler has a history of leaking problems and parts are expensive and hard to find. I hope this faucet proves him wrong.
I will say that the quality of the finish is not good for the price. The nozzle does not match the handle - nozzle is a slightly different color and a rougher texture. It was installed before I noticed it. The only reason I'm giving it a "good" rating is that I love the style and it's perfect for my kitchen.
My last faucet was a Delta - pretty inexpensive - and it lasted 10 years, so I'm hoping this Kohler faucet will stand up to the competition - it was installed on 5-30-14 and so far no problems. If it doesn't last at least a few years, I doubt we will purchase another Kohler product.

Looks good. Solid construction. I was able to install it myself.
(1) Tall arc faucet. (2) Single lever control (not two separate controls for cold & hot). (3) This lever is separate from the main faucet body; a feature I wanted, but not very common. (4) reasonable price. (5) solid build quality. (6) available in a finish that matched my existing sink.
[I did have one question during installation. No problem. I telephoned Kohler support and they answered my question.]

Home Depot purchase was great. HD beat predicted delivery time. The faucet itself, not so much.
Faucet is very solid and seems well constructed.
The flow from the faucet is low and the sprayer is even worse and pretty much only good for rinsing soap suds off a dish.
Not sure if this is a government flow restriction or just poor design. The riser/feed pipes are very small in diameter and cannot be replaced, so this may well hinder the flow.
Seems a shame given the overall quality and not an inexpensive set.
