The quality of the basket is quite good. However, it is stainless steel so it did not match with all the polished chrome I used in the shower. I was able to find polished chrome baskets at a similar price point.

Easy to install and when sealed along the top and underneath the rim with 100% clear silicon the basket is stable and can hold large bottles of shampoo very well. I bought another one for the other corner of the shower. I wish this was carried in brushed nickel, but still looks great!

After trying all the cheapie suction cup baskets, (which are guaranteed to fail) I researched & purchased the Kohler Basket. Easy to install & will never fail. Best decision ever.

These baskets are top notch. They are nicely built and seem very strong. I have only had them installed for a month, but I have no doubt that they will last for ever, as long as the stainless steel is rated as it is specified. I have no regrets about the purchase but I do have a complaint about the supplied hardware. They only provide stainless steel screws, assuming that you will be installing them into a stud or brace, which would be behind whatever your shower is made of and also behind the drywall. Unless you are building a new shower and plan on ripping into the drywall to install braces for this reason, this is mostly useless. Thanks Kohler....... Good thing I know how to fix this. No matter what your shower is made of or even what is behind it. YOU are going to need to buy some anchors. and drill holes to accommodate them. It seems like most types would work, in order to use with those stainless steel screws. I just used what I had. Seems to me this was easier than trying to hunt down even a stud. Kohler should seriously add some anchors to the kit....its pennies we are talking about here! Either way. Great purchase with a known great name. A bit pricey, especially considering the price difference for each of the finishes........which I thought was insane ( i went with the cheapest.....Polished). The price differences make little sense since some of the most expensive versions require less metal processing. They seem that they are priced based on popularity, which I find a little crooked considering the minimum and maximum price range is from what I remember, about $20. Supply and demand I guess!

    Looks great and very solid
    I bought all 3 (large, medium, small) for a shower remodel and my wife and I love them. They not only look great but they are very solid and don't feel flimsy and cheap. I did have to buy a diamond tip drill bit to be able to drill through our porcelain tile in order to install them. It took some time drilling 12 holes (4 per basket) but the end result looks great.

        Big Fan of Baskets
        The basket is easy to install. First bought one seven years ago and it is still like new. Holds the weight of shampoo and other bottles. It is decorative and never rusts. It is not a heavy weight on the shower pipe and doesn't have to be replaced, what a plus!

          Great design
          These are great soap baskets. I was using another manufacturer's product but was unhappy with their poor design. This basket is strong, attractive and with fasteners on two sides it can be mounted level and heavy bottles do not make it tilt. I love that it is stainless steel and will never flake or tarnish.

          Built like a tank - but shiny
          These are the best solution out there for shower shelves. They come in three sizes to accommodate most installations. The shelves themselves are made out of solid stainless and are really beefy. When mounted correctly, they seem sturdy enough to be a grab bar, though I am not going to test that. Installation is a little tricky - either these are not completely square or my wall isn't - so you need to be careful and double and triple check where the screw holes go. I could shift the shelf nearly a quarter inch left to right when pushed in the corner. I had one shelf where I needed to re-drill one side because I must have let the shelf slip when marking. I used Toggler AF5 3/16 In. dia. Alligator all-purpose anchors to mount directly through the tile - no studs behind. The result is very solid.

          Durable Shelves
          This is the second set we've bought (for our second bathroom). We've had the first set for 4 years now and they look as good as they did on the first day (no rust). They are not only durable but also the best looking we've seen on the market! Thanks Home Depot for yet another wonderful product!
