Single Handle Pullout Spray Kitchen / Bar Faucet from the Simplice Collection

Couldn't be happier
Received the product in much less time than expected. Installation went exactly as described in the instructions--probably 15 minutes to install, once the old faucet was removed. And I have never done any plumbing before. The faucet functions extremely well and is beautiful. It looks like the pullout portion may be coated plastic. Online pricing was far better than what I could find at the big box home improvement stores.

I love my faucet
Checked out other faucets and have been on the hunt for at least 2 years for replacement. Revamping an older kitchen and wanted to upgrade without breaking the bank. Sink was ready to be replaced and wanted stainless. Read all reviews, pros and cons. Purchased the faucet in Chrome finish and it looks great on the new stainless double bowl sink. Only had 1 minor problem with water flow and that turned out to be at the inlet and not the faucet. Contacted Kohler when water flow problem occurred and couldn't ask for better support. Purchase faucet from Faucet Direct and they came through with flying colors. Got the new faucet in 2 days!

Great Faucet
Looked long time and had 2 returns before finding this faucet for my laundry room. I wanted a smaller faucet, long neck, and a pullout spray. So many are HUGE. This is perfect, great quality, very functional and great price. Would definitely recommend!

Great Service
We are very happy with the Kohler faucet ordered through Faucet Direct.
The web site is easy to navigate, the prices of their products are incredible, and best of all we received quality products on time.
No problems at all, and this was our first time ordering.
We will definitely use this site again.

Be sure to remember to allow space above the fauce
There is a limit to how much room is need for the installation process. Faucet extends several inches below the top of sink. Most of this is relatively inflexible and could prevent the faucet from fitting if the sink is already in place.

Love this faucet
Searched for the perfect faucet and I am so pleased with our choice-This is considered a bar faucet-but it is perfect size for kitchen. Clean lines and has an artistic look about it.
