Tools and Hardware Reviews of KOHLER K-10272-4-BN Forte Widespread Lavatory Faucet with Sculpted Lever Handles, Vibrant Brushed Nickel

Customer Review: Really Classy Faucet
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought one of these in the brushed nickel for the hall bathroom and liked it so much I ordered two more for the master bath double sinks. They came with everything need to install and my husband installed them with no real problems. I have heard some complaints that the flow is too wide or spurts out unevenly on this faucet. That was so on one of the faucets we bought, but with a little jiggling of the aerator my husband got it flowing beautifully and the others worked perfectly from the start. The handles turn very easily and smoothly, a feature I really like. The faucet seems very heavy duty and we are very pleased with the quality and appearance of the finish although, being brushed nickel, it does take some care to keep the water spots wiped off. The design is perfect for us. Our bathroom is a relaxed contemporary but not way out modern. I would think this would work well in a transitional bath also. The only con-- while I love the appearance of the handle, the design, with a slight indentation on the top, is the perfect spot for a drop of water to sit. For us, it's just a matter of a quick swipe with the cloth after washing up. Highly recommend.
