I researched for this specific product and HOME DEPOT had the best price along with free S/H. My door arrived in just 4 days when it said 7-14 days. Arrived packaged very well and was exactly the door that my contractor suggested we use. He said we should go the the thicker glass, a much better and safer glass. We bought the brushed nickel and it matched all our fixtures.
I would highly recommend this product if you are looking for a high quality door. Looks great and HOME DEPOT had the BEST price!!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Our contractor installed the door so we don't know his opinion on ease of installation but we like the quality of the door.

We specifically ordered a 3/8" thick door at the suggestion of the contractor, and we're glad we did. Door moves so smoothly and without any "wobbles". Really adds to the new shower. It also has the "no water spots" feature which seems to be working, although we do "squeegee" after our shower.
Pros: Cleans Edges/Corners Well, Sturdy, Performs Well, Looks Great, Quiet, Great Value, Nice Design
Cons: took longer to be delivered than had been promised
Yes, I recommend this product.

The product has good features and performs as promised. Everything needed for a professional installation was included. Highly recommend two people to hang the doors. Too heavy and awkward for one person to "safely" control. One person can easily perform the rest of the installation. I can highly recommend this product.
Pros: Easy to Use, Sturdy, Performs Well, Looks Great, Nice Design
Yes, I recommend this product.

I did a lot of research before I decided on these doors. They're gorgeous and function perfectly. My contractor said they were the nicest ones he's ever installed. My sister is so impressed that she's buying the same doors for her bathroom. Yes, Home Depot had the best price. I also got a $50 rebate for ordering on line and they were delivered to my door. Can't ask for more than that.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I feel the Kohler Fluence 6 ft bypass shower door met my expectations in every way with two small exceptions. To date I have not had one problem, but the wheels upon which the doors hang appear not to be better than doors of lesser quality (and lesser weight). Perhaps 4 wheels on each panel would be better. I also wish the guide would prevent the glass from contacting the bottom track which it does with an annoying noise. The edge of the track might also be covered with clear vinyl to prevent the noise.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Was very worried about them being shipped and yet they made it from Maryland to California just fine. It did take about two weeks to get them but that was really expected.
We had a smaller version with 1/4 in glass but wanted the nicer looking 3/8 in glass since we were remodeling.
One of the rare times the truckers did not damage stuff that was shipped to me so very happy.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This product is unbelievable! The 3/8 in. thick glass is gorgeous and the Frameless Brushed Nickel / Clear Glass combination is beautiful This product is of a quality that beats the "Custom" Shower Doors that a local "Glass Supplier" was offering us, and at a much better price. The fit and finish is perfect and assembly was very easy. Great Product at a Great Value. THANKS Homedepot and Kohler!
Yes, I recommend this product.

These doors are beautiful. They were easy to install, and have the look of a custom door. The finish is a brushed nickel with a sleek handle that also functions as a towel bar. The glass has a finish that repels water so they can easily be cleaned. Great doors, great price.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I just finished installing these today. They are very nice looking and were not too hard to install. I am a DIY, not a contractor. A couple of things you should know about these. First they (Kohler) recommended that you cut the top and bottom tracks with a miter box and a hacksaw. I was able to cut the bottom track that way, however there is no way to cut the top track which is very thick (3.5 inches height, about 3 inches wide) using a miter box as I have never seen a miter box that deep. I took the top track to a aluminum fab shop near my home and they cut it with the proper type of chop metal saw for 5 bucks. Also the instructions for plumbing the doors were just the oposite of what we needed to do to make sure they were hitting the bumpers properly. We did read the section on this 3 times, so I know they were wrong. A center track guide (made of cheap plastic) needed to be installed also with self taping screws. They instructed you to just "screw these in" with a screw driver (no drilled hole). There was no way those screws where going into that metal track without drilling a hole. So just a bit of common sense is needed doing the install as the instructions are not that great.
Pros: Looks Great
Cons: poor installation manual not clear
Yes, I recommend this product.

Installed the door quickly and Easily with no problems. The door worked perfectly for 2 weeks before I noticed both doors would close and then roll back open an inch to an inch and a half. The top rail was installed PERFECTLY LEVEL. The weight of the doors is causing the Aluminum top rail to sag and letting the doors roll to the center.
No, I do not recommend this product.

The 3/8" glass gives this door a 5-star spa feeling and the Clear Coat feature makes it easy to maintain, as does the way the Kohler has designed the bottom track so water doesn't collect. Although the doors are heavy to lift into place (it took two of us to lift each door), it wasn't that difficult to do the installation in one evening ourselves.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Product is easy to install. I put ours into a tiled shower area so there were some leveling issues. I gave 4 stars because one piece of glass was chipped and looked like a repair was attempted. Not sure if this happened in the factory or not. However when I called Kohler they didn't hesitate in sending me new glass. They have awesome customer service!

Beautiful product that was easy to install. I am really glad that we purchased the 3/8 in glass vs. the 1/4 in. Very sturdy and moves with a heavier feel. Looks very classy! I am sure it will last for many years due to the fine quality.

The shower door is beautiful and is a quality, heavy-duty product unlike anything available in my local Home Depot stores. Shipping took less time than expected. However, the box arrived without a bottom track insert for the outside shower door panel which causes excessive water to leak onto the bathroom floor when the shower is in use. The Home Depot Online Department was very helpful when I reported this problem and is sending the part within 10 days to 2 weeks. Additionally, one of the shower doors was shipped with an obvious black mark engrained in the glass which could not be removed. The Online Department was also very helpful and ordered a replacement door at no additional cost to me. But my contractor will have to remove the existing door and replace it with the new one when it arrives (10 days to 2 weeks). This was part of an extensive bathroom renovation that took about 3 weeks. Now it will be a minimum additional 2 weeks (maybe more) before it is finished if I can get my contractor back when the door arrives. These things happen but it adds to the frustration of home renovations.
No, I do not recommend this product.
