I attached three photos. Original faucets and new main after remodel (1); upgraded faucets w brushed brass insinkerator hot water dispenser (2), final fix with working insinkerator French gold hot water dispenser that works and doesn't drip.
Since my kitchen upgrade in 2018 I kept my old original insinkerator hot water, tank, dispenser and a cold water dispenser. Both are hooked up to water filtration while the main faucet is not. Water heater tanks tend to last just up to 10 years before they fail, I'm at the tail end of my second one which is still installed. New faucet but I really wanted a brushed gold it just wasn't as available then as they are now.
First picture (1) is how things looked after the remodel. Very nice but I wanted brushed gold fixtures and accents in my kitchen.
In December I ordered the same Kohler faucet in brushed gold along with a Kraus water faucet. Also ordered a new dispenser but in brushed bronze. Took picture (2) after all were installed by a plumber. If you are trying to decide between the brushed bronze and French gold, the brushed bronze didn't look exactly like the photo advertised. It has much darker "brush marks" than you can see in the photo. I would have kept it as is but as others reported the faucet failed 5 minutes after install. It dripped and had a failed air valve. Took it back and decided to order another in the French gold to see if it would better match. Was not available through retail outlets so ordered on Amazon.
First, it is installed and it works, no drips and from picture three (3) I think it looks better with the brushed gold faucets. French gold is a shiny gold versus the brushed brass. The outer parts of the faucet are metal so in time I will add acetone to take off the shiny top coat and work from there to better match the color. I'm in no rush. I love the look overall and am happy everything works and looks like I originally envisioned.
