            This faucet looks nice right after it was installed, but you have to wipe it dry every time you use it, or else large water spots remain on the finish. On a positive note, I love how the stopper works. You just push it down to contain the water and then push it once more to release the water.

            Had to return
            Bought three sets and all of them had fully kinked hoses rendering them useless. Time is money and this wasted a lot of time AND money! Shocked that quality control this bad for brand such as Kohler...

              REALLY like the faucets ribbon waterfall, great design feature! This faucet was paired with the Aberdeen single vanity a looks fantastic. I switched the silver metal vanity handle with a black one to match the faucet and it looks great. Easy to install except you need to remember to get plumbers putty that does not react to marble for the vanity top.

              Our 2nd floor master and 1st floor half bathrooms cold water are now hot after installing two of these faucets
              We purchased two Katuns for our 2nd floor master bath. The finish seems nice out of the box. Kohler has definitely tried improving and made it easier to install. One of the hot water handles turns past the stop so it always is crooked. I'm not sure if this can be adjusted. Now to the major issue. The hot and cold water quick connect supply fitting was quick and easy to install. Thats great. What happens is the how and cold water supply connect into an upside down Y fitting. Then flows through one piece to the faucet. This sounds great. However, now both of the cold water faucets upstairs flow hot water once turned on for a while until all of the warmed water has flowed from the supply line. Also the downstairs half bath cold water supply also flows hot water. Yes these two baths are on the same water supply lines. I think what is happening is the valves on these faucets somehow allow the hot and cold water supply to mix. This hot water mixes in the cold water and heats up the cold water in the line. Sure you can let the cold water run for a minute to clear the line of the hot water but come on. We are trying to conserve water. I don't know about you but brushing your teeth with hot water is no fun.

                The water flow is so slow. It is now painful to remove everything and send them back.
