Single Handle Kitchen Faucet with Side Spray from the Fairfax Series

A Fine Kitchen Faucet
We wanted to replace a faucet made by a well-known company that needed parts replaced on a regular basis, and the replacements were cheap goods. Having had good experience with several Kohler products, we opted for this model. We are very pleased so far (several months in). Everything about this faucet seems heavy duty and well made.
Installation, which I did myself, was complicated by the fact that the Kohler has attached feed lines that did not reach our under-sink shut-offs. After a plumber modified our supply lines, the process went smoothly.
The handsome, old-fashioned design fits perfectly in our 1920s home, the faucet and spray work perfectly, and I would recommend the model for anyone needing a new faucet in an older style kitchen.

need more detail views
This faucet is very good looking and functional.The flow is satisfyingly robust. My only complaint is that in the photos of it,it was not apparent that it came with an adorable little hot-cold sign on the top of the handle.I therefore bought one,since it would add such a nice little touch. I was surprised to find it came with it,and you can replace it if you need to. With an overhead shot f the unit,this confusion could have been avoided. I now have a spare part I hope I never need.

Easy replacement
I replaced a Moen faucet with this and it was simple and easy. Very well made unit not the cheap stuff from the home centers.

Love the new faucet set. However, the sprayer is not of the same quality and tends to drip. Otherwise, service - timely shipping - and follow thru was excellent. I will purchase from FD again.

very nice for price
faucet is a nice value even though the sprayer is completely plastic. Everything else is very nice.

Very nice
The only small concern is that the sprayer makes a clunking sound when I pull it out. I am going to ask my installer if he can do anything to get rid of that noise. I would be interested in knowing if anyone else has had that problem and how it was resolved. Aside from that I truly love the look and functionality of the the faucet set.

Great Faucet
The faucet is tall and pots fit well underneath. The pressure from the faucet is excellent. It looks great in the kitchen and works well too. I would like it better if the sprayer was more solid, it feels like it is plastic.
