Couldn't be happier!
We were torn between this Kohler faucet and the Moen 6410ORB Eva, which would have been a few bucks less expensive. Had I known how great the Kohler looks in reality, it certainly would have made the decision much easier. This faucet is beautiful! The stock photo really doesn't do it justice. Just modern enough for an updated, sophisticated look, but not like one of those crazy SiFi faucets that leave you puzzled over how to actually turn on the water... Whilst I was shopping around, my wife had grown somewhat indifferent after looking at umpteen faucet pictures, but when I finally set this this one on our sink she exclaimed "I love it!"

Installation was fairly simple. It does have a gasket at the bottom, so according to some online guides I didn't need a seal. But I still chose to set it into a bead of silicone caulk. Once I hand-tightened the plastic nuts from below, the base of the faucet pulled very tight to the surface of the sink (probably less than a 1/64") and I...

faulty aerator, terrible GPM
I bought two of these faucets and after installing the first one, I found the water flow was weak so I measured it and got less than 1 1/4 gallons in a minute. I contacted Kohler and was told there is only one aerator available (some faucets have higher flow aerators available which can include aftermarket aerators, but not this faucet). Kohler would send another aerator out to me just in case there was a problem with mine. It took 23 days for the new aerator to get to me even though it was eventually sent first class. I had waited a couple weeks but I installed the second faucet anyway and it gets the same bad flow rate. I tested again with the second faucet and was as precise as possible: with aerator = 1 1/6 GPM; without aerator = 3 1/4 GPM. I can conclude that Kohler's aerators for this faucet are deficient/defective.

Otherwise, I like the faucets very much. What a shame for the weak flow with no option. This doesn't ruin the faucet but 1.5 GPM would be much...
Modern Look...
This faucet went into a remodeled bathroom. It looks modern, and it is simple to keep clean. Several people have commented that they think it's attractive. Due to the location in the house the sink has become a kind of utility sink, where I clean brushes, the taller water outlet comes in handy.
