  • what else do i need for complete shower installation ?

    A. You'd need a hose, a wall supply elbow, a handshower holder, and a trim/valve to turn the water on. Additionally, you might also need a diverter depending on the set up.

  • Can I mount this on a deck with the K-368 holder?

    A. The part of the Kohler K-17492 that rests in the K-368 is the base. With that said, I'm not entirely certain the K-17492 is too heavy to stay mounted. It will fit, but may tilt forward depending on the angle it's installed.

  • Is it made of solid metal or just metal coated plastic?

    A. The Kohler K-17492 is made of a metal coated plastic. There are reasons that this is done. An All Metal Handshower would translate the heat from your hot water to your hand faster, also the lighter weight minimizes the risk of damage to your shower if dropped.

  • Is there a shower arm mount that is compatible with this hand shower? I currently have a bathtub shower setup and would need the hand shower to hang from the shower arm.

    A. The Kohler K-17492 is compatible with all of the hand shower mounts. The part that rests in the cradle is the part of the hose that connects to the bottom. Just make sure the arc isn't too far forward or else it will fall out.

02 Handshower from the Flipside Collection 4.5 5 11 11
Beautiful, but ... Was very happy at first with this purchase. It looks great and initially the flip option was fun. After a few uses, however, function became the focus. The showerhead just does not deliver enough pressure on any setting. I wound up putting back my old handheld in my completely renovated bathroom. June 4, 2011
Great handheld Best hand held ever, 4 spray patterns to chose from April 20, 2011
attractive and good quality lightweight yet great quality, easy to change water setting. Disappointed that they did not also have the attachment onto the shower pipe directly from the wall, but I used a "universal" adapter from Lowes that works fine. April 19, 2011
best shower head ever My husband and I are both so please with the new shower head. It works perfectly, adjusts easily and looks great. September 22, 2010
Great Shower Head This Kohler Flip showerhead is great. Provides a strong shower from all 4 sides. Goes great in our recently remodeled shower and matches well with the other brushed nickel items even though all are not Kohler. Very sturdy feel as well. Would be nice if Kohler would bundle this with the mounting and hose equipment as I had to order those items separately. Arrived quickly and in excellent shape from Faucet Direct. August 24, 2010
Well thought out showerhead First and foremost, best prices I found were right here at Faucets - great job! Love the flip showerhead, so far it's been flawless and the transitions work well. We have found that of all the combinations, our favorite is the mist pattern. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this unit. August 18, 2010
LOVE IT We love this shower head! Enjoy the ease of being able to swivel the head and get a different flow. May 29, 2010
all four settings provide provide nice ways to experience the different sensations of flowing water. May 4, 2010
Wonderful Product This product is everything Kohler said it would be. The four different streams of water range from gentle rainfall to an invigorating stream perfect for getting energy flowing in a morning shower. This product was also purchased with a newly handicapped person in mind and has been easy for him to maneuver. March 8, 2010
hadsome functional shower head After trying to go the big box store route finding nice looking hardware until you open it and find its all plastic... I finally broke down and went to a bath/kitchen store and found this marvelous rugged set. Then the rest was going on line to find you and I was very pleased with the whole process. Still need a shower door installed to be able to enjoy this shower but January 22, 2010
