I am in middle of an entire house down to the studs reno. I spent a lot of time on http://www.google.com/prdhp?hl=en&tab=wf doing research on prices. I went with the best prices, sometimes could not find any feedback and sat anxious until things arrived. In the end, I furnished a 2.5 bath, 2 sink kitchen for less than half of the local plumbing supply 'discounted' prices and ended up with higher end items. Here are the best places I've found: dealyard.com - if you can find what you want, the prices are just plain unbelievable on high end products, in a few cases, I paid 10% of list for discontinued styles of high end European items. we ordered seven faucets, one shower set, one shower/bath set, one roman bath set from here all arrived in perfect condition. was in three separate boxes, fed ex, the company only had signature required on one of the three boxes, so two boxes were left outside our home one day, and the third box needed signature - all three should have needed signature - weird glitch. Would suggest calling the company after placing order to make sure they require signature - I didn't do this. faucetdirect.com - ordered jacuzzi air tub and kohler cast iron bath tub. prices were the best for these items. they were shipped separately. it was snowing the day the kohler arrived and the ups driver said that dropping the tub to the curb was not included in the delivery, so the contractor plus plumber actually lifted it themselves. customer service said it was not their fault, UPS said it was not their fault, either way, I did pay for curbside delivery and did not get it, I would suggest when ordering large items like this to talk to the company ahead of time, which I did not do. homeproductstogo.com - ordered three toto toilets. no problems. really nice local delivery company was used who insisted on helping us take the items into our home - I did not pay for white glove service, and got it anyway overstock.com - kitchen sinks. no problems. Hope this helps.

I ordered both my full sized and prep SS Floriano's online, although about a year apart. As of April or May of 2006, Brizo forbid the internet posting of prices or internet sales. The big internet dealers with brick and mortor storefronts get around this by giving you a quote via email or phone and then filling your order as a phone order. When I bought my full sized Floriano w/soap dispenser I got it from bathandkitchenstudio.com for about $340, but that was almost two years ago. Last year about this time, faucetdepot.com gave me the lowest price on the SS prep floriano for around $320. Emailing and calling the internet sites is well worth the effort.

We have the Kohler "Vibrant Brushed Nickel" finish on both our faucets (Kohler Vinnata for main/cleanup & Kohler Fairfax for prep). The main sink is also a Ticor. I think they look just fine together. (Our prep sink is a Kohler SS.) I also think Brushed Chrome would look fine so I'd decide on which finish I liked for the overall effect in my kitchen. I don't have the hot water faucet, so cannot comment. I also didn't use the InSinkerator GD flange, I used the Kohler SS flange instead so I can't compare the finishes. Actually, I used the Kohler SS DuoStrainer in both the prep sink & the non-GD side of the Ticor (small bowl). Here's the Kohler BN Vinnata w/the Ticor SS sink: And the Kohler BN Fairfax w/the Kohler SS sink:

Chris, maybe you could post the pictures of your sink and faucet and clarify the question a little more. I am not sure I get it.
