Just finished serving one of these (I'm a plumber) customer had it installed hardly ovet a year ago, had no hot water. Ended up costing them $1000 in labor to find the problem after 3 trips. Stick with stand shower valves

Bad product

Installed the kholer anthem two port valve. Called kohler. They said the knocking was water hammer. All my pipes are strapped and even installed a water hammer resistor on the valve body of the plugged ports. Still hear knocking. Switched the wand and the shower cartridge same problem with the one cartridge. I need help kohler!!!! Stop telling me to do what I already know.

Knocking in one of the cartridges

I had this installed this month. I give it an A+ for the reasons I bought it.... (1) temperature stays absolutely steady when someone flushes the toilet or runs the dishwasher or whatever. (2) We can easily change the volume of water without affecting that temperature. I give it a B for two things I did not anticipate. (1) It hums when one of the outlets is set to the lowest volume position. (2) The variation of temperature allowed seems somewhat limited. We had choices of tepid-to-hot or cool-to-tepid. We elected for tepid-to-hot.... but it means we never will get truly cool water out of the shower. Have to use the sink for that.
PS I am rating the faceplate and this thermostatic control valve that runs it at the same time.

Main functionality is great! Could use a few tweaks

I bought this over a month ago and hired a plumber to install it. Unfortunately the instructions aren’t very clear so installation was a bit difficult, especially if your plumber hasn’t installed these types of system before. Luckily Kohler’s customer service and technical support teams were very helpful and emailed me additional instructions and YouTube videos. I had originally received the part scratched up and called Kohler, they were able to send me a replacement overnight. Overall, I am happy with the customer service and the product has not been installed for a few weeks, it’s been working great without any issues. The design itself is sleek and clean looking, love it.

Great design

I have been a master plumber for 35 years. no instructions with valve or trim kit just a few pictures. I expect more from Kohler. Handle turns like it has grit in it, not smooth.

very poor instructions

Love this mechanical valving! We wanted to go digital but that was going to be too much work for our set up and this was a perfect replacement.

Great Product

Really bad instructions for installation
