KOHLER Vinnata Kitchen Sink Faucet

Comment: I have a K-690 and it leaks at the handle. I've messed with it over and replace the valve which costs $15.20 from Kohler but it still leaks. Usually it is a slow drip but it varies depending on how long you've been letting it run. The rubber seals inside just don't seem substantial enough. There is too much plastic and not enough rubber to make a good seal. You can crank down the nut that hold the valve in place but it never gets a good seal.

I wouldn't buy one again and now I may have to find a replacement. I'm going to let a plumber take a look at it but if it starts leaking again, that's then end of Kohler for me.

Comment: This is our second Vinnata, and it works great. Easy installation took 10min, and a huge improvement over the older one that we inherited. Strongly recommend the Vinnata.

Comment: From various sources I gathered that Kohler produces high quality products. I bought the Vinnata believing that for the premium I am paying I will get an outstanding faucet with impeccable workmanship. Unfortunately the Vinnata turned out to be a disappointment. Within weeks of installation the half dome-shaped cap that sits between the handle and the body of the faucet came loose. It didn't leak, but it annoying moved loosely every time I turned on the water or adjusted the temperature. At first I thought it was faulty installation, but after the plumber returned to inspect it he declared that "it's just the way it was designed." Apparently all he had to do to remedy this was to force the cap to snap into place. He then advised me to avoid touching/moving the cap to minimize recurrence. I've followed his advise, but I have no doubt that at some future time the cap will snap off just as easily as it snapped back on.
For such a "high-end" product with an ultra price premium, one would reasonably expect PERFECT workmanship. That the Vinnata failed to meet basic quality standards renders this faucet sub-par and over-priced (I would have given it three stars if it weren't priced so richly). I most definitely would not pay up for Kohler ever again.

Comment: The Kohler Vinneta kitchen faucet is a bit overpowering in our kitchen because of its size and is definitely over priced.

Comment: This is a beautiful kitchen faucet. It's really large and goes perfect with our very large/deep undermount sink. It works great and is perfect for a high-end kitchen. It truly makes a bold statement. I absolutely love it!!
