Review on πŸ’§ KOHLER K-2991-4-0 Tresham Rectangle Self-Rimming Bathroom Sink, Centerset Faucet, White by Cori Nance

Revainrating 2 out of 5

If you like the look of this sink try Tresham Memoirs

This sink looks very nice when installed instead. It suits both modern and traditional designs. However, it has one major design flaw. The bottom of the sink is very flat and doesn't drain well. There are two 4-inch recesses on either side of the gutter that allow water to pool and then evaporate, leaving behind mineral deposits and a crust. Also, the drain is in the middle, which causes the water from the faucet (as well as soap, toothpaste, and other things) to splash to the sides. This requires you to spray water with your hand to make the stuff go down the drain, which wastes a lot of water. We contacted Kohler about the problem and they graciously agreed to replace the sinks. We wanted something that would fit the hole cut in our quartz countertop and customer service did the research for us and offered their Memoirs sink. The bottom has a perfect shape and now we don't have any drainage problems. He has a very similar appearance, which made me very happy. Removing the other shell was a major pain I must say. The plumber told us they wouldn't remove the sinks due to the risk of damaging the countertop so my husband worked a very long time to loosen the silicone adhesive and ended up using the jack underneath to push the sink out. I suggest trying the Memoirs sink if you like the design to avoid disappointment.
