KOHLER 8799-PB Duostrainer Sink drain and strainer basket, less tailpiece, 1.5, Vibrant Polished Brass

Most Beautiful! EVERYONE LOVES THIS FAUCET. HAD A TERRIBLE CHALLENGE FINDING THE POLISHED BRASS!

Perfect! Just what I needed to replace my old generic strainer!

built to last and nice look

This thing weighs a ton. I was having a leaking issue with the strainer baskets that were included with the Kohler all-in-one sink/faucet kit I got from the local warehouse club. Installing this thing fixed it, but I have a sneaking suspicion its the rubber washer that came with this strainer basket that fixed the issue and not the basket itself. Kohler got my money going both ways, so good for them, but if youre replacing your strainer basket for the same reason I did try getting a rubber washer first and save the money. This thing is well made but it seems like overkill. None of the other kitchen sinks Ive installed had this issue and Ive used the baskets that were included with the kits. The one thing that might make this worth the money? Ditching the lock ring that needs a special tool youll only use once every 10 years! Screwing in three bolts was crazy simple and it was easy to center the strainer. We got ours used from warehouse deals. It was marked good but it was actually good as new and cost a 1/3rd of the new price. Good luck!

We searched everywhere for the made in America stainless version. Found it here the product identifier contains vs without c for China. Much much higher quality. Thank you for carrying this model. We are thrilled it’s the look md quality.

It keeps falling apart. The screw that holds it together comes loose. Very unhappy with this Kohler quality

Is perfect the color is heavy duty

Quality costs. Well made and heavy. Well worth the extra $s.

I bought this thinking the price would indicate the quality, and I was right. This stainless steel drain is much more heavy duty than the plated one I replaced; it’ll probably outlive my house.

I actually ordered two versions of this part and returned one. The oil-rubbed bronze version was much lighter and made in China. The basket appeared to be made of stainless sheet metal, while the oil-rubbed bronze parts were made of brass. Because the color was close to black, I decided to order the brushed nickel part for installation. The basket of this part was made of nickel-plated cast brass in the USA. The brushed nickel finish on the strainer is over brass. The cast metal basket of the second, nickel-plated part is much heavier. Some reviews mentioned that this is over-engineered, but I appreciated the retro quality. This basket will likely last a while, and if the brushed nickel parts wear or corrode, the screws make it easier to replace. Be wary of the origin of the part. Both have decent quality but only the US made part is worth the price.
