596-BL Simplice Kitchen Sink Faucets with Pull Down Sprayer, 3-Spray Design, Matte Black Kitchen Faucets, High Arch

I bought this to replace an American Standard faucet that had extremely low pressure. I was a bit worried about the GPM on this, but it can be difficult to find faucets that put out over 2 gallons per minute. The installation was moderately easy. You can check the instructions online, the only difficult part for me was getting under the sink cabinet and trying to work in the small space, actually hooking up the new faucet was easy. I was really impressed with the performance after the install. I thought that the spray sweep function was going to be marketing BS, but it turned to to actually perform as shown, it is easily my favorite feature on the thing. The faucet really puts out a powerful stream. Even the normal mode has much improved water flow from my previous faucet. The button on the side to increase flow even more is especially helpful. I really like that the head swivels 360 degrees, it makes it really easy to use the nozzle. The magnetic docking is cool as well, it helps keep things looking tidy. Others have questioned the longevity of the faucet, and I can't yet comment on that as I have only had it a few months, but from a pure performance standpoint I am very happy. At this point if I am going to replace something in my house my first look is always to Kohler. I have owned a bunch of their products and they always seem well thought out and executed.

Timeless Design, Smooth Operation, and Built to Last The KOHLER Simplice Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet has been a standout fixture in my kitchen for nearly a decade. From day one, it impressed with its elegant high-arch design and silky-smooth performance. The pull-down spray head glides effortlessly thanks to Kohler’s ProMotion braided hose system—it never snags or feels stiff. The DockNetik magnetic docking keeps the sprayer snugly in place every time, something cheaper faucets often struggle with. What makes this faucet worth its price is how thoughtfully it’s engineered. The three spray settings—stream, sweep, and boost—cover everything from rinsing vegetables to blasting away sticky residue. The sweep spray is particularly handy; it creates a fan-shaped blade of water that actually pushes food particles toward the drain instead of splashing everywhere. Installation was straightforward, even for a single person. The included supply lines and optional deck plate made it flexible enough for a single- or three-hole sink. After years of daily use, there’s been no leaking, no loose handle, and the vibrant stainless finish still looks like new with only a quick wipe-down now and then. If there’s a quirk, it’s that the water pressure feels a touch lower than older 2.2 GPM faucets—but the tradeoff is efficiency without sacrificing cleaning power. Bottom line: A beautifully made, reliable faucet that combines form, function, and longevity. The Simplice looks premium, performs flawlessly, and is still one of the smartest kitchen upgrades I’ve made.

Decent product, a lot of ways to use the faucet, both in spray, then steady stream, both light, then heavy, therefore great water pressure when required. Was easy to install, the price was good for value and the colour matched the description. Feel is good. Faucet tends to drip for some 5+ seconds after water has been shut off, otherwise a good purchase.

We chose this model due to the design and functions it offered as well as the price and the Kohler reputation. We bought this to replace the crappy Delta Allora pull down model we had which cost $350 and lasted only 2 years before the magnet broke. They updated the model and the parts would not fit the old model. This was easy to install and seems to work very well. That faucet retracts quickly and securely into the magnetic holster. The sweep spray feature is very nice, but I wish it also had the regular spray. The pause feature is nice. There is a bit of splashing with this faucet and I don't know if there is an adjustment that allows you do pull the faucet down into the sink and let it hang without retracting so you can wash and rinse without holding it. You just have to train yourself to turn the faucet on low at first. The only thing is that it seems the faucet drips if you turn it off in the "sweep" setting. Once I set it to the regular stream setting the dripping stops. I think the price is a good value for a faucet of this type. I did not want a touchless because that's just one more thing to replace batteries in and I just don't think the extra cost is worth it. So I give this product 5 stars based on appearance, ease of installation, function and cost. Cheers everyone! 6/7/2022 Update: solution to low water flow-clean the screen. It takes a bit of effort for remove the part but it fixed the problem. I had ordered a new nozzle but was very disappointed that Kohler discontinued the pause feature and replaced it with a "burst" feature which is completely useless since it already has good pressure. The pause feature was great for filling containers and pots.

Very well packaged and arrived in perfect shape. Love the faucet - paired with a Kraus undermount sink - they look great together. No performance issues so far.

El producto perfectamente con lo que anuncia. Excelente calidad y acabado

It is difficult to control the water flow. It wants to be off or full power on. I find myself splashing water all over when I'm trying to rinse a small container. It is difficult to get a small stream of water. This is a small complaint and I'm sure I'll get used to it. I give it 5 stars because it exceeded my expectations for function, installation ease, looks and overall quality.

Perfect faucet for my guest washroom.

Good quality , bit pricy
