Beautiful doors with great bearings that make them glide effortlessly. However, our shower pan horizontal ledge turns in toward the shower at the showerhead wall, causing the water sheeting down the door to splash on the ledge and get on the floor outside of the shower. I installed these same doors a couple years ago at a friend's house along with a Kohler shower pan and it doesn't have this issue.

This door has been a terrible disappointment. To begin illustrating the problems with this door, the black plastic door guide is an extremely bad design choice for several reasons. First, despite the fact that elsewhere the design takes pains to hide plastic parts, this unsightly piece lies in the center of the bathtub – in my case, overhanding the edge in a grave insult to good design. Second, on the latter point, there is what I consider to be a bit of (frankly) trickery in the measurements offered to determine if the door will fit. It is presumptuous to assume that overhanging the door guide will be an acceptable design choice. Before purchase, I verified that the bathtub would be wide enough, with no sense of what tolerance for overhanging door guide (relative to the edge of the tub’s tile wall) would be officially ‘compatible.’ From my point of view, my bathtub should have been found incompatible with the door per better width guidelines. Buyers should be sure to have ample, excess flat space on the edge of the bathtub for installation of this door to be good. Third, the piece is designed badly from the point of view of installation. It must be forced into a channel in the bottom piece, and then it is extremely difficult to tighten the screw which is meant to hold it in place because the rubber seal covers it. The instructions blithely recommend simply moving this seal out of the way, but this extremely difficult. Worse, the screw is meant to be tightened with an Allen wrench, which must be removed and replaced on each turn because the glass door is otherwise in the way. Why this screw is not a simple Phillips head, turnable with screwdriver aimed straight down, is beyond me. Additionally, the instructions say that an appropriate Allen wrench is included, but I do not believe I received one. The installation instructions contain several defects. Others have noted poor clarity combined combined with unusually complicated installation requirements. To me, perhaps the worst offense in the instructions is this. The positioning of the bottom rail of course commits the installer to the positioning of the whole door (and of course it does, that’s inevitable), while the instructions fail to highlight the full, unusual implications of the positioning choice. The depth of the inner door compared to outer trim is significant, so it is all too easy to commit oneself to an illogical position of the inner door without realizing it until far too late, which among the problems in my case. The instructions might be improved by the installer to gauge the position of the bottom rail using the door guide, which shows immediately where the door lines will end up. This problem is worsened by bathtubs with thinner or curved rims (as mine has), even within the compatible specifications, as these make it all the more likely that a logical position for the bottom rail and edges will result in an illogical position for the inner door and (correspondingly) the door guide. In short, to consider my case again, although the door is ostensibly compatible with my bathtub, I do not think that any positioning choice for it makes any sense. As other reviewers have noted, the top bar is surprisingly low. Again, given measurements can be misleading without careful attention to bottom of bar v. top of glass measurements. This oddity results from a design in which the glass doors are higher than the top metal bar. This problem is in keeping with the general difficulty in interpreting the dimensions of this door to plan out application. To summarize the central problem, as I see it, the fundamental difficulty with using the door comes from its width, which poses problems that do not become apparent until installation is well underway. In my case, by the time it became clear just how far inside the shower the inner door would lie, all the essential decisions about positioning had been made (but again, I do not think that the door leaves me with any good positioning options, with little way to tell that before installation begins). Perhaps the installer is most to blame here, but I think that no shortage of responsibility lies with the manufacturer’s design and instruction choices. As a final note, the brass color is far duller than pictures suggest. I understand that real world conditions will not match a picture, but this difference is not trivial, in my estimation. The actual color, however, was still acceptable for my intended application, so I did not see this as a problem for me. At this time, I regard the door as a complete loss, and I intend to remove and replace it.

I purchased Kohler based on reputation. It is a well made above tub shower door, but be aware of the height of 59 to 60 inches. My Kohler cast iron tub is only 14 inches high, so when I tried to install this shower door, it was not tall enough to even cover the shower head and if you are tall, you are going to have to stoop below the header to get in. I ultimately went the custom route and got stuck with the door that I could not return as I had already cut the header. Nice shower, but was useless to me. Measure well before you buy it!

The Levity Plus shower door with 5/16 glass is a very solid unit. Installation was a breeze and the door performs flawlessly. So far the coating on the interior face of the glass is spot free.

The threshold seal came broken folded in between the glass and one of the wall jamb covers came half an inch short like what the heck is that
