Articulating Faucet Features Total Range of Motion
Innovative engineering allows the KOHLER Karbon Faucet to move into virtually any position inside or outside of your sink. With a faucet reach that ranges from less than two inches to over 13 inches and an adjustable height of up to 18 inches that allows you to fill the tallest vase or reach down into the bottom of the sink, the KOHLER Karbon Faucet can also be folded into a compact position when not in use.

Orient the Faucet to Suit the Task at Hand
Depending on the task at hand, you can adjust the KOHLER Karbon Faucet to a precise height, orientation, or water flow direction. Sculpt the faucet so that the water is exactly where you want it for filling pots, cleaning dishes, watering plants, washing your hands, and more.

Remote Joystick Valve Allows for Precise Adjustment
A sleek, remote joystick provides a complementary look and maintains a low profile that contributes to the visually stunning look of the KOHLER Karbon Faucet. As easy to use with your wrist as it is with your hands, the joystick valve provides precise temperature and flow control. It can be mounted to the left or right of the faucet.

Switch Between Flow Options with the Touch of a Button
The KOHLER Karbon Faucet features an integral spray head that offers both spray and aerated water flow functions, eliminating the need for a side spray. Simply touch the button on the nozzle head to switch between the two flow options.

Contemporary Styling and Durable Construction
Constructed with traditional brass and innovative carbon fiber composite tubing, the KOHLER Karbon Faucet is as much a piece of art as it is the next generation in faucet technology. The lightweight carbon fiber provides added strength, and the five pivoting joints allow for smooth and easy movement while securely holding their position once in place.

The KOHLER finish resists corrosion and tarnishing, and the ceramic disk valves exceed industry longevity standards by over two times, ensuring extended use.

Installation and Technical Details
Installation is fast and easy with flexible connections and installation rings, but note that the joystick valve requires non-standard holes of two inches in diameter. The KOHLER Karbon Faucet has a maximum flow rate of 2.2 gallons (8.3 liters) per minute with a low-flow aerator option available.

We recently had this Kohler Karbon faucet installed in our kitchen along with a Kohler sink. This faucet is definitely a conversation starter and everyone who sees it wants to try it. We are very pleased with it so far. It is VERY solidly made so don't worry about moving it around and manipulating it as it can handle it with ease. Also, the water stream is very very good so don't think the design of the faucet limits the power of the water coming out as it is just as powerful, if not more powerful, than any other kitchen faucet out there. From both a form and functionality standpoint we are VERY pleased with this Kohler Karbon faucet. One interesting thing to not is that the hole which needs to be drilled for the handle is a lot bigger than the hold that needs to be drilled for the faucet. Just something to be aware of as it is a little unique to this faucet design. We saved several hundred dollars by ordering this faucet through Amazon. We looked at this faucet in person at...

5.0 out of 5 stars So far so good.............., June 28, 2010
We purchased and installed this faucet back in November of 2009 and have really enjoyed it. I was a bit hesitant, given the price and still think it's not cheap but we re-did the kitchen completely in a modern clean line look and the faucet fits in perfectly. To a certain extent, it's a design element as well as a functioning faucet.

The faucet itself has worked flawlessly and the various combinations that you can contort it into work really well; you can hit any part of the sink and the ability to adjust the height as much as you can is really handy for filling big pots or down low into the sink as well. The various combinations also offer a variety of different looks. The deck mounted handle is also handy for turning it on when your hands are dirty or you've been working with raw meat. You can just turn in on with your wrist and it becomes pretty intuitive quickly with respect to adjusting the temperature.

It feels pretty solidly built but we've only had it... Read more

This review is from: KOHLER K-6227-C11-CP Karbon Articulating Deck-Mount Kitchen Faucet, Polished Chrome (Tools & Home Improvement)
This faucet is really a head turner and looks absolutely fabulous for modern kitchens. After more than 6 months of use, I'm not sure we'd use it in our next kitchen for four annoying reasons. 1) Spray button won't turn off spray mode. You have to turn off the water to reset it. Very inconvenient for when you just need a quick spray. This is made worse because of the next reason: 2) Hard to control the temperature & volume. I'm not sure why, but it's hard to control the water temperature and volume with the joystick. I don't know if it's the actual valves or the long handle, or the deck mounting. It looks cool, though! 3) Splashes everywhere. The water coming out is not aerated. Aeration puts lots of tiny bubbles in the water streaming out so that it doesn't splash all over the place. Without it - and no, you can't install one - the water looks great, but splashes everywhere - including on me. We have hard water so it's quite apparent with white spots everywhere. 4) Spray button is... Read more
