Faucet for Kohler Whitehaven sink?

9 years ago

I have read and re-read every thread I could find and am making myself crazy trying to find a faucet for my Kohler Whitehaven. It's the 36" wide model. I have found several recommended faucets here on GW that have almost the right dimensions, features, and styling - such as the Moen Woodmere, Delta Cassidy, and Hansgrohe Talis S and C, but each is not quite right. Ideally, I am looking for: single lever, pull-down spray, reach of 9" or more, somewhat modern styling (like the Hansgrohe Talis S & C), ability to locate the lever in the front, and locking spray. I am using the Hansgrohe Talis C at my prep sink and it's almost right for my Whitehaven except that the lever cannot be located in front.

My "perfect" faucet may not be out there, but thought I would ask here in case I am missing a good candidate...

I put a Karbon on my 36" whitehaven, and love it. Great reach, stay on spray. I was worried it was to modern looking, but dont care I love the long reach since I am kinda short.

I have the Delta Trinsic touch. I don't know if the lever can go in front. The lever is on the side on mine, but it doesn't rotate backwards, only forwards and out, so it doesn't hit the backsplash. It does have a locking spray.

I just measured the reach of the pull out and it is about 15" max. I like that I can fill a pasta pot without having to hold the pot up in mid-air or set it down in the sink. My sink is a Kohler Riverby 33" so a little bit smaller than yours, but the reach of the Trinsic should be enough to clean all around the sink and fill a pot on the side.

I am getting the Kohler Bakersfield sink (similar, a little smaller and not apron front) I choose the Moen Woodmere. I am a big fan of Moen faucets.

Thanks for the suggestions! The Moen Woodmere is still on my maybe list, and it gets great reviews. I had also once considered the Delta Trinsic so will definitely revisit it.

OOTM Mom, I could never have pictured the Kohler Karbon with an apron sink and and your picture is helpful. I like it! It might still be too modern looking for me, but the functionality seems amazing. Thank you for a suggestion I would not have considered without some prompting!
