Kohler gets his best inspiration from valves

A year ago I was in the final stages of designing my basement. As the contractor began framing, he offered to swap out the planned half of the bathroom for a laundry room. The end result is impressive, especially the Kohler products used. We have created enough space for a large shower.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Some problems

Solid brass - cartridge arrived broken

Okay that's a big buzzing piece of brass. Stops - native brass cartridge and they work. The main cartridge is broken, the cold water side cannot be switched off. The plumber flushed and blew the valve, the contractors are already there so we're not stopping. I ordered 2 replacements just in case. That's not the kind of stress I need during this makeover. For the money the quality control should be better!

Pros
  • Lots of good vibes
Cons
  • Expensive

It turned out that the valve was smeared with garbage

The cartridge is completely useless and I have to buy a new one. Only hot water comes out of the shower. I removed and cleaned the cartridge. This gave me cold water for a couple of days, but within three days it blocked up again and now it's hot water only. It is very important to inspect the cartridge before the 30 day return period expires. I had to wait for my tilers to finish and missed my 30 day return period.

Pros
  • The best
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Missing parts for valves

The product looks solid and good but the parts package was missing so the fairing kit installation could not be completed. I don't know if it was a Kohler packaging error or if the item was returned and resold. There was no extension adapter (there should be three different ones in the kit) so depending on the depth of the valve to the wall surface you could install a trim kit and shower handle. We ordered all materials to be on site when our installer needed them, but the time it took toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Hard to say

This is the valve you want

This valve has everything you want. Advantages: 1. Shut-off for both hot and cold supplies, so the valve can be repaired without shutting down the main valve in the house.2. Built-in diverter to control 2 outputs.3. Maximum temperature setting to avoid burns.4. Easy to understand lever markings (not included on fairing) for hot and cold air. So many valve kits don't have this.5. Both screw and solder terminals are available.6. It's big and well built. Cons: 1. It's big. It fills the entire 3.5โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Zero
