As very big dissapointment. Another example of form over function.I bought this towel bar to match my faucets, shower head, etc. and now sadly, I'm stuck with it. It's a terrible design. First, it is not one uniform piece, but three pieces, and the towels are constantly getting snagged and destroyed where the pieces fit together. Second, it never fit properly and was always loose on the wall and sagging, until my cleaning lady finally did something (not sure what -probably yanked a towel off it) and it simply just broke and is unfixable. This is just two months after installation. I love all the other pieces in the line, which seem to be well designed and well constructed but this towel bar is so bad, I even thought I might have unknowingly purchased a knockoff. Having read the other reviews, I don't think that's the case. And it's not cheap, either! So frustrating.

I love the way this bar looks but it is a little touchey. The small connector inside (two of them) is very touchey. One fits nice and snug the other is not so snug. We are older and can carefully take a towel off the bar. If we had small kids it would not hold together under their rough use. In time I'll take it back down and try some super glue.Read Best Reviews of Kohler K-11370 Sculpted 18" Towel Bar from the Forte Collection, Here
This towel rack looks good and installs easily but the central rod is a hollow tube and not very sturdy. I cannot use this rack as a hand hold since it would come apart. Admittedly, no one said you could use the rack as a handhold. However, the bathroom is a dangerous place and if you slip it would be nice if you could use the towel rack to steady yourself. On the positive side having a three piece unit certainly makes installation easier.Want Kohler K-11370 Sculpted 18" Towel Bar from the Forte Collection, Discount?
The Forte collection is a very sleek and nice design. The quality of Kohler is evident in the weight of the product and the ease of installation. I was a bit frustrated when I went to Home Depot as they didn't have a good selection of this brand/style. They did have an 18" towel bar but that was it and I needed the 30", 18", towel holder and toiler paper holder. Amazon had them all and in-stock. The installation couldn't have been easier as there is a template on the back of each package that shows where to drill the holes. The kit also comes with all the screws and anchors necessary for any type of installation. The best part is I ordered on Monday and received on Wednesday free with my Prime account. Can't beat the selection or convenience and got them all installed in less than 1/2 hour.
