The Flipside handshower ... more surface area.
New handshowers ‘Flipside’ of Kohler
01 April 2010
KOHLER, a global leader in kitchen and bath design and technology, has recently launched a new handshower based on its innovative Flipstream technology, which offers four unique sprays and easy handling of spray options.
“Multi-function handshowers have traditionally featured a single sprayface with all spray options being located on that one sprayface. Not so with the revolutionary Flipside handshower,” says Les Petch, Performance Showering marketing manager for Kohler.
With Kohler’s Flipstream technology, the sprayface simply rotates on its axis, with each of the four sides of the sprayface being dedicated to one of the sprays. “This not only provides greater surface area for a superb spray experience, it also makes changing between sprays both intuitive and effortless – no more trying to grip the sprayface with soapy hands,” he says. “This feature also makes the Flipside handshower ideally suited for users of all ages and even those with limited hand mobility. In each spray mode, there is a range of movement so the users can easily angle the water stream to suit their particular requirements.”
This fundamental reconfiguration of the sprayface has allowed Kohler to create four unique experiences on one handshower, according to Petch, which are:
• Koverage, for a traditional, everyday shower with maximum water coverage that is “perfect” for the morning shower routine;
• Kotton, which streams a layer of dense, soft, enveloping downpour of relaxation that caresses the skin;
• Komotion, a drenching spray that delivers an exhilarating, circular pattern to refresh the senses after a tiring day; and
• Kurrent, which provides a focused and invigorating massage spray to target tired or aching muscles.
“The Flipside handshower is an ideal way for homeowners to instantly upgrade their total shower experience with a product that’s extremely easy to install,” says Petch. “With its four unique experiential spray options, it is a quick and affordable way to introduce the features of a custom home spa to your own home.”
The Flipside handshower is available in three design options: the elegant, flowing lines of Flipside 01 to complement nearly any bathroom décor; Flipside 02’s contemporary geometric lines ,for lovers of modern design; and Flipside 03, which makes a statement with its black handle. Finish options include polished chrome for Flipside 01, 02 and 03, and vibrant brushed Nickel for Flipside 01 and 02.
