Excellent solution for modern or traditional shower. Open wire basket is unobtrusive and does not detract from tile design. Water does not pool and drains out well. Good match with other Kohler polished nickel fixtures. The polished stainless version, which is slightly less gold also works with polished nickel fixtures. However, neither Kohler’s polished nickel or stainless finish matches polished chrome. Since, the basket was installed only a few months ago, I can not address long term durability. Hopefully, the vibrant finish will hold up and not rust over the years.

Look Great and Very Solid
I bought all 3 (large, medium and small) for a shower remodel and my wife and I love them. They not only look great but they are very solid. They definitely don't feel flimsy and cheap. I did have to buy a diamond-tip drill bit to be able to drill through our porcelain tile in order to install them. It took some time drilling 12 holes (4 per basket) but the end result looks great.

      This shower basket is just the right size to fit in the corner of my shower. I WISH they made a three tier version of it so I would have enough space to put bottles in my shower. All the other ones that HD sells are too big for the corner, and they fall out into the tub!

      Excellent quality! We installed this small basket for soap and the large KOHLER shower basket for shampoo bottles and such. They work great. I love the fact that the soap does not sit in water and is thus usually dry the next time you use the shower.

      Disappointing: Quality good, however, Kohler’s “polished stainless” finish does not match “polished chrome” fixtures. Kohler’s warmer stainless color does not match the cool blue of polished chrome. Strangely, both their polished stainless and polished nickel baskets match well with polished nickel shower/tub fixtures. Since Kohler does not offer a polished chrome version, I returned this basket to look for another option.

      Perfect size for bottle, soap, etc. Use a good amount of 100% silicon caulk to seal the top and underneath and the install is very solid. Very happy with the quality!

      I installed two of these small ones and the large one in nickel into new ceramic tiled walls. They are beautiful! I'm ordering two more small ones for the other corner of the shower.

        Nice but I thought it was brushed nickel
        I thought I was ordering Brushed Nickel. It is actually two-toned. Brushed nickel on the base (basket) and a shiny stainless on the rim. Not exactly what I wanted but it will do. Our faucet is brushed nickel, so we wanted it to match. We've noticed that some of the brushed nickel and stainless finishes on different things really look pretty close anyway. Our installer is here this week to create our new shower, so we don't have time to reorder. Plus, I don't think we could find exactly the right metal finish in this particular product. Overall, this is a really high quality, pretty and functional accent piece in the shower and it allows the soap to dry out. We saw this in a hotel and loved it. I like two places for soap since I always use two different types. One is on the recessed shampoo holder and then this one, too.

        Low profile, no mess
        We just needed something small for our second shower to clean up the messy soap lying about. This corner size is perfect but if you want to hold more (i.e. shampoo, etc.) they have a medium and large size as well.

        Amazingly sturdy little shelf
        These are the best solution out there for shower shelves. They come in three sizes to accommodate most installations. The shelves themselves are made out of solid stainless and are really beefy. When mounted correctly, they seem sturdy enough to be a grab bar, though I am not going to test that. Installation is a little tricky - either these are not completely square or my wall isn't - so you need to be careful and double and triple check where the screw holes go. I could shift the shelf nearly a quarter inch left to right when pushed in the corner. I had one shelf where I needed to re-drill one side because I must have let the shelf slip when marking. I used Toggler AF5 3/16 In. dia. Alligator all-purpose anchors to mount directly through the tile - no studs behind. The result is very solid.

        Sleek looking but suits many styles
        This is a long lasting product that cleans easily, when necessary in areas of hard water, with a paint brush and some CLR. Shines like new.
