Quality product

The plumber had no trouble putting in the Kohler mounting block for the freestanding bath faucet but we had taken up the old tile floor before putting down hardwood so he didn’t have to cut out our bathroom floor to install the mounting block under the subfloor.It works perfectly and our bath faucet which is quite heavy is quite sturdy. We are very happy.

An important piece to include when order the spout and hand shower. Great quality.

Relatively easy to install and holds the filler steady on the floor.

I received this item with cement on top that’s crazy!!

While it was my laziness that lead to the purchase of thus item. It is if not a part of the correct faucet system and mixing valve set.

I needed the part.

Don’t forget this faucet foot plate when you order the bathtub faucet.

Our contractor secured the mounting block to the floor floor joists before the tub arrived, but he still had to cut a hole in the ceiling below to complete the tub installation. Thats a minor inconvenience but was not unexpected during our bathroom remodel. Theres absolutely no wobble with the filler. Be sure to follow mounting instructions BEFORE you install the bath tub so the filler is positioned correctly. We had to loosen the four mounting screws and rotate the tub filler so the hand sprayer dripped in the tub and not on the floor. The mounting block provides four stainless steel slots that facilitate rotating the filler to the correct position. Be sure to not lose the locking washers if you remove a screw. I used a paper clip to fish out the washers from the mounting block collar.
