3.0 out of 5 stars Problems with aerator's on Fairfax models, September 22, 2007

I initally bought the two handle Faifax faucet. Installation was extremely easy. The flexible water lines are pre-installed. All you need to do is tighten a screw from the top to secure the unit in place, and then connect the water lines to your valves.

That's where the good news ended apparently. The water came out of the unit with little to no aeration, and shot out of the unit so hard that water would spray all over the sink and floor. I spit out toothpaste in the sink with the water running, and the toothpaste went flying everywhere! One other complaint I have is that the handles don't control the flow proportionally. In other words, the pressure reaches full blast with only about a 25% turn of the handles. This causes you to fuss with tweaking the handles in order to bring the water down to a pressure that won't spray water everywhere. Another problem I noticed is that when you do turn down the handles to lessen the flow, the water starts to spray erradically out... Read more

It's beautiful and installation was a breeze, but I also have a problem with the spray being too strong. Mine doesn't seem quite as bad as the previous reviewer's, but I do have to be careful not to turn it on so much that water sprays everywhere.

Also, you can buy this faucet cheaper at Lowe's.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice sturdy faucet that looks good, June 12, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: KOHLER K-12181-CP Fairfax Single Control Lavatory Faucet, Polished Chrome (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought one of these units from a local supply store years ago and installed it in one of our bathrooms. It fit the sink very well, provided good room under the spigot for hand washing, filling drinking glasses, etc. - unlike the previously installed unit. One strong attraction was the claim that this unit is built extra sturdy - since that bathroom is used by 2 very rough boys. It has held up well and looks good. A year ago our other bath faucet started leaking badly and I wanted another one of these Kohler K-12181-CP to match the other B Room. But I couldn't locate one locally or online - partly due to the fact I didn't know the model or number. I never thought to look on Amazon until this spring when the leaking was getting worse and I felt more motivated to locate a faucet. I was so surprised and VERY pleased to find the exact unit I wanted at a very good price and free shipping to boot. Installation is reasonably easy and I'm confident it will work well for a long time... Read more
