Customer Reviews for KOHLER Elate Single-Handle Pull-Out Sprayer Kitchen Faucet In Polished Chrome

I recently replaced my kitchen faucet with the Kohler Elate Single handle and have had it for about a month now. I chose this model for the sleek design, looks and height, as this it is not nearly as tall (12") vs. the more commercial type faucets (16"+). Because the profile has a 90 degree design, as opposed a low curve or 45 degree angle, to I'm able to maneuver large pots and other large items effortlessly. I like that It offers a generous water flow and usually don't have to turn it on any more than 3/4. The pull-out spray attachment also has a "pause" button, which allows you to stop the flow of water as long as the button stays depressed, which is very handy. I opted for the Chrome finish, which is nice and shiny, but you can see every smudge and fingerprint on - but cleans up easily so it's not much of a problem. Overall, I'm very happy with my Kohler faucet purchase and highly recommend it!

Very nice. Easy delivery. Sorry to see this one being discontinued.

The faucet was a direct replacement.

This worked fine for a while but just recently it started leaking. For an almost $300 faucet I'd expect it to last a little longer. I've had it 2+ years.

Looks very good -function is average- the pull out sprayer does not operate smoothlyWhen returning to initial place.

Easy to install. Looks good. Operates as expected.

Overall nice construction and stylish. Really shows fingerprints so not what we are looking for in a kitchen faucet. We returned the item.

Pros: Like that the metal base contains the handle. I had to replace a faucet with the handle on top because the operating parts were made of plastic and that caused the handle to eventually break. Cons: Don't like the flat top. It's a dust and dirt catcher.

The looks and the quality of this faucet are quite good. The reason for only three stars is that the pull out spray hose does not retract in its original position without pushing it in. I expected better from Kohler.

Spray is not the best unless on full force which I can't really do because my sink is very small. This was the smallest I could find with the side handle that I wanted. Looks great.

Easy installation and a job to use. The design is stylish and finish is terrific--it looks high-quality and I look forward to a long relationship with this faucet!

Function and form, for the price, an excellent choice.

I really like this faucet! Sometimes I wish that it would return to normal position by itself once I pull it out.. but that's a very small issue.. the pressure is good when it's on either spray option. It works very well with my sink.

to much plastic not happy.

Only installed two weeks ago. So far it's excellent. Bought because of appearance and Kohlers lifetime warranty

Very pleased with the design and the operation. I love the smooth pull-out sprayer.

This product was easy to install and it looks very nice in my kitchen. I am very happy with it so far. Its quality is so much better than my previous sprayer faucet.

This faucet worked well with none of the low flow or leakage problems reported by previous reviewers. I would have given it 5 stars but the installation process still has some difficulties. Kohler fixed the problem with the weight on the retractable cord by making it free floating so that is no longer a problem. It is much easier to install the faucet if the sink is out of the countertop. The screws that fasten the faucet to the sink are long and somewhat small. Kohler furnishes a plastic socket extension but it is difficult to keep on the nut until it was tight. Since I was installing the faucet to the sink before installing the sink, I was able to get an open end wrench on the nuts and tighten them satisfactorily. It is also easier to install the flexible water lines to the faucet from the supply before putting the sink in the countertop. .

Purchased the faucet in chrome. The faucet looks a bit higher end, sort of like the Grohe Ladylux. I turned the body of the faucet clockwise upon installation so the handle does not hit the backsplash when you move it back. That worked out very well.

The faucet is high quality. Even the packing in the box was quality. Attention was paid to each detail in the packing. Each item packed was protected for chipping or other damage. Using the faucet, I love the feel of the handle. It fits my hand well. The button to change from spray to stream is quality and easy to switch. I love everything about this faucet.

The most outstanding feature was the easy install. It took all of 1 hour and saved us $200 the plumber quoted for him to install. The one feature I like the most is I am able to use the spray feature without pulling out the actual sprayer. The faucet is very beautiful and adds a modern touch to the kitchen. We have 4 holes in the granite from the old faucet and I did not believe I would get everything I needed to cover all 4 holes, however we got everything we needed.

We bought this faucet online since it was not available in the store and I was apprehensive since I couldn't see it in person. Still wasn't sure about it until my husband put it in. LOVE this faucet....It is so easy to turn on and off it's almost like the touch on faucets but about $200 cheaper. The pull out works smooth and easily retracts. The height is great for tall pots but tends to make the water splatter somewhat when rinsing things. However, that being said this is probably the best faucet I've ever had the pleasure of using. To me Kohler is the cadillac of faucets so what's not to like. Plus it looks beautiful!!
