Review on 🚿 KOHLER 8487-BN Hotel Hand Shower Kit with Brushed Nickel Finish by Andrea Thomas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Exquisitely Crafted - Bathroom Sanitaryware

The craftsmanship of this hand shower is immediately apparent in its appearance and weight. It has two modes of operation: full jet and half jet. The atomizer holder can also be tilted and the height adjustment can be easily moved and held tight. The flow regulator is not part of the scope of delivery, but a control valve can easily be installed between the non-return valve and the hose. However, there are two aspects of the installation that can be improved: The distance between the mounting posts is fixed. Therefore installation on a tiled surface can be difficult to avoid gaps and the spigot has no depth adjustment and has limited reach when screwed onto a protruding nipple. Luckily the standard 1-1/2 inch nipple worked as there was some play in the feed elbow it was attached to in the wall. If that didn't work I don't know how I would have made a 1-3/4" nipple.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Out of fashion
