This door fit perfectly. It was easy to install and looks fantastic. It has handles on the inside and on the outside so you can use the handle to open regardless of which side you are on. It's very simple yet elegant looking. Slides smoothly on the tract. I have found no issues at all.

the door set was packaged well, everything was included. Installation was straightforward. Only reason for not having 5 stars is the retainer for the inner door is a bit flimsy, and if it fails there is a possibility for the door to pop off the track and fall into the shower. Also, the rubber bumpers were kind of cheap, they should have compression limiters so that you can tighten the screw without the screw head pulling through the rubber bumper.

This turned out Beautiful with the Flexstone Panels and the Kohler Tresham Shower Base. Very please with the quality of this Shower Door. The doors/glass are very heavy not cheap like the others. Easy to wipe clean. Totally worth spending the extra money on heavier doors.

    The door is installed and at first glance it looks very good. However after cleaning the glass and trim after instillation I found rub marks on the glass that will not clean off and the finish on the frame pieces have wear marks from being shipped with poor packaging. This is very disappointing as I expected more from a Kohler product. I now have a fear of ordering another one for the other bathroom as the next one might be even worse than what I got with this one. Other than the problem with the finish it seems to be a good product and was very easy to install.

      I recently installed these so I don't know how they'll hold up, but they have an attractive, clean, modern look, are sturdy, and seem like an excellent value. They could slide a little more smoothly, and they do have the track at the bottom that collects water because they're not frameless. The towel bars are very useful. I didn't install them myself, but the contractor didn't have any trouble. So far they seem like an excellent product for the price.

      It looks better than I expected. My only suggestion is that the top frame bar should be screwed to the rest of the frame. The matte finish matches any decor. I recommend this product.

      What features stand out most? It fit the shower space nicely when cut to size, the towel rack handles are a plus, only six screws are used to hold it in place, and the clear 1/4" glass doors work smoothly. What do you like or dislike about it? For our walk in shower there is nothing to dislike about this shower door. We have only had this door for a few weeks and it has and will continue to met all of our expectations. All of the features and the low price makes this door an easy choice over the higher priced competitors. Overall we are very satisfied with this door and can/will easily recommend it.

      The Door is mediocre. It's shorter than I anticipated (though, I should have paid more attention here) so I need to duck each time I enter/exit. The Matte "Nickel" is almost a beige/brown color and the handles get loose after a few pulls.

      I purchased the Kohler Fluence shower door from Home Depot and installed it yesterday. The only problem I had was that the notches at the bottom of the side rails were not completely machined. I did not know there was a problem until I went to install the doors and they could not be adjusted low enough to engage the bottom track. Since I had already drilled holes in the ceramic tile to install the side rails it was too late to clean out the notches as they should have been machined. My only recourse to get the doors to engage the bottom track was to remove and shorten the side rails so that the top bar which supports the doors would be lowered. This was done and the doors worked perfectly. Anyone purchasing this door should check to see that the notches are completely machined so that the side rails fit onto the bottom rail as far as they should. Other than this, the installation went smoothly. This is a very attractive and high quality door for the money and I would not discourage anyone from purchasing it. I would easily have given the door 5 stars if it weren't for the incomplete machining.

        Very nice shower doors. Whatever Kohler uses to prevent water spotting works. One downside is that after less than a year we've had to replace all four rollers at the top of the doors. The rollers are not adequate for the weight of the doors.

          I was able to reuse the existing framework and the door assembly went quick. The first set of doors lasted 9 years before one just shattered with no apparent reason. we have a great deal of Kohler product in our house. This is a great product and has excellent support. Thank you,

          Nice looking door. The inside door rests on a track but has nothing to keep it locked on to the track. So when the door is partially open the inside door does flop back and forth at the bottom. The rollers at the top are the only thing keeping it in from dropping. The instructions are very vague. We had to figure out many steps on our own.

          These are sturdy, good looking doors. They weren't too hard for us to install. The only negative is that they show spots easily but most do I'm guessing. We would recommend these shower doors.

          Best Shower Door for Do It Yourself Folks
          The shower door was easy to install and the instructions were plain and simple to follow. One person can do it but it is better with two people as the glass doors are a bit large to handle by yourself. The assembly and install were done in about three hours, Great product and it looks good also.

          Satisfied
          just follow the directions and you will be fine....measure top rail cut three times to be sure it fits perfectly. If using an electric drill to install sides, you will need. long bit to reach the screw holes. Have not used it long enough to rate durability.

          Kohler shower door installed on a Kohler shower base
          The shower door was delivered as promised and in good shape. The installation instructions were clear and easy to follow. All in all a very good choice.

          Overall quality door
          Product looks great and is very functional. Slides beautifully and there are no signs of water escaping. Being used in a five year old's bathroom and I have no concerns about durability or safety. This was a great purchase.

          Doors look great
          These doors made my small, old bath look modern. Most of time was spent removing old doors, cleaning crud, regrouting and caulking. Directions were comprehensive and with correct tools (esp. glass bit and hacksaw blade) actual installation was easy even for an old person like me by myself, so anybody can do it. My only complaint is the roller brackets tilt and are visible below the top rail if set in any other than center hole. Kohler is sending new brackets, but I’m doubtful they will be different. Overall, for the price, the quality is very good. Delivery to home, Kohler and Home Depot customer service excellent.

          Great looking door
          I'm very pleased with the door. It looks great in my new shower. Love the heavy doors and easy to clean. I had a professional install it, so I can't comment on the installation.

          Chic - Looks really classy
          I was skeptic ordering online but the product was better than shown in the pictures.It arrived before time at the store for pickup. it was nicely packed. Doors came with good instructions for installation. Also make sure that the clear coating side is facing inside, you may miss that in haste.

          Great Door! Great Price!
          This is a great door and it looks great! For the most part it's easy to install except for the two side that you have to mount to the wall. It was hard to mark the holes because it was 1-2 inches away from the tile. I had to take a pen apart to slide it through the hole to mark it. I just wished the holes were adjustable as it is hard to drill a hole exactly where you wanted it, but luckily I had both side line up the same. I also had to drill a different hole close to the very top hole and adjust the rubber piece to cover it up the original hole as the hole is too close to the grout line and I didn't want it to crack and chip the tile. Tips for drilling the holes through the Porcelain tile would be using painter's tape and then put the rail over it to mark it. I used the Blue Masonary drill bit that they had a homedepot. I drilled from small hole to 5/16. I also wished that the frames had plastic film over it protect it from getting scratches while installing. I had to use food plastic wrap half way as I noticed some minor scratches from handling. I Hope this helped! Overall Great Door!

          Beautiful shower doors!!
          We originally went to a shower door showroom and got a price on these doors. The price was over $850.00 , the doors we looked at had all the same components. We have been rehabbing a home and buying all our supplies from Home Depot so we went on line and checked these doors out.They were identical to the showroom doors, so we ordered them. My husband read the installment instructions carefully and took his time installing them. They turned out beautiful. We are very happy we went this route. Anyone with a little bit of know how and patience can install them. Door shipped to local Home Depot and arrived in a timely manner and without damage. Don't be afraid to give it a try. Doors are heavy but my husband and I handled them. We are a couple in our early sixties. If we can do it, so can you!!!

          Nice Look
          Easy to install. Right price. Glass is a bit thin. Will spend the extra for a taller door next time, but suited our needs very well.

          Overall Great for the price
          Quality would have been excellent Except after unpacking frame had bends. Installer bent back and installed towards inside almost unnoticeable. This is third shower I have used this product on and it has as close a frameless look for the price. it is pretty easy to clean. Preforms well.
