Kohler K-7272-BN Clearflo Slotted Overflow Bath Drain, Vibrant Brushed Nickel, 4.5 pounds

It looks great and plumber gave it a thumbs up.

It worked as intended, easy to install.

Purchased the Kohler tub from a big box store, and it required this drain. It came quickly and fit perfectly... it looks really nice and matches the other brushed nickel items in the tub/bathroom.

love the look of the over flow and the tub stopper is an excellent design. the over flow is not the easiest that i have ever installed. if you are installing this i would recommend purchasing a 1 1/2 inch rubber connector/adapter (4 inches long). i had to cut the pipe from the over flow to the T and install it to allow the pipes to line up for installation. it gives you flexibility to make the connection to existing plumbing drainpipes. also you had better be good at gluing and fitting the pipes together quickly because it is a one shot deal. make sure to dry fit before gluing. the tub (archer) and it's accompanying overflow seem to be best suiting for a new construction install. i gutted my bathroom space more or less and without easy access to the space behind the tub, it would have been nearly impossible. not as user friendly as slip nut connectors which allow for some variance in drain, T, and overflow positioning. good materials, but not smooth to work with. obviously geared to the professional plumber, new home construction purchaser. and of course those of us do it your selfers who won't stop until we get right.

I bought this to go with my Kohler Underscore tub for my bathroom remodel. I didn't have much choice in drains for this model, other than finish. As far as drains go, it's nice. The slotted overflow piece looks pretty cool compared to the circular ones you typically see. It felt pretty sturdy and of good quality. It's a Kohler so I guess you can't go wrong. This was installed by a licensed plumber, and there were no issues with it.

The most disturbing thing about this drain (which is meant to accompany certain Kohler tubs) is that it's very hard to see how Kohler doesn't knowingly sell a bad piece. This drain just does not work -- when installed properly, and "working" properly, it just doesn't fit. Basically, when you push the drain down, it's supposed to lock in a down position and clog the drain so you can fill the tub with water. It doesn't clog the drain because it doesn't sit flush with the drain hole in the floor of the tub. If you adjust it so that it would clog the drain, you don't have enough room to actually "click" the drain in the lower, "clog" position. I took the piece apart, cleaned it thoroughly (in case there was some grout clogging it from when the tub and bath tiles were installed), reinstalled it, took it out again several times, adjusted it several times...it just does not fit. So there's nothing wrong with the part itself--it's not broken. Kohler just knowingly sells a piece that doesn't fit. To make things worse, I've since asked friends who have remodeled bathrooms with Kohler tubs and they've had the exact same issue. I'd never installed a new tub, and after this experience, I'll never purchase from Kohler again.

Pretty expensive and you're stuck when you buy that Kohler tub. Happy to find an open box item here that was about half price! Whoever checks returns does a good job because I've bought a few other things and haven't had any issues with missing parts or defects.

This is not you conventional drain setup that you can slide for adjustment it is heavy duty pvc parts that need to be glued. This made it tough for me because I could not plumb post- install. Nor could I drop tub in pre assembled. However, I was able to reach around to install the overflow section later. Good quality parts.
