We are having the opposite problem, that the stem “slips” and water pools in the sink and won’t drain unless we manually hold the the stem up.

This one works!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have one expectation, it should seal the sink and not leak. Hours later, the water is still in the sink. Sounds like a low bar but this is the first one out of many that has not leaked.

Lost Black Color
The black coating has peeled off of half of the strainer, and although still functionable, it’s very unattractive. Too expensive to order a replacement. Beware that the black model is not a car, oil-rubbed color, but rather shoddy paint over a shiny silver.

Poor Performance
My Kohler stainless steel sink and strainer are one year old. The strainer quit holding water a few months ago. After reading the numerous reviews on this part I realize that I am not alone. I expected better performance from this product. Very disappointed.

Hi HomeDepotCustomer, this is Sarah with Kohler Customer Service. I'm sorry to hear you have to continue adjusting your Duostrainer basket to hold water. This isn't how your drain should be operating. If this drain assembly was installed within the last 6 months, please remove the oring on the basket strainer and use the basket without. This will give the basket strainer and drain body the proper seal it needs. You can continue to use it in this way. Please email us directly at KohlerCustServ@kohler.com. We're happy to help! -Sarah S. Kohler Customer Service

Does not work properly
This product does not work, water leaks out so dish soap is wasted. It has never worked properly, and I see other people have had the same problem. On the plus side, customer service is sending me a new one which I hope will work better.

Hi Tom, this is Sarah with Kohler Co. I'm sorry to learn that your Duostrainer basket is leaking. This is nothing you should expect when you choose a Kohler drain. The o-ring on the bottom of the basket should be holding water in the sink. If the o-ring is damaged, torn or enlarged, the basket may not hold water. Please remove the o-ring from your basket and place the basket/strainer back in the drain body without. This will give the basket/strainer and drain body the proper seal it needs. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call our Customer Service team at 1-800-4KOHLER (Mon-Fri; 8am-5pm CST). Your delight is our top priority! -Sarah S.

It is very heavy duty! I would have given it 5 stars, but it appears to be solid black. For the price, it should have the oil-rubbed bronze brown and trim. I bought an extra to keep silverware, etc. from falling into the garbage disposal and to give the two sides of the sink a coordinated look. We installed them a few weeks ago.
