Question 1

Is this a flexible hose or a stiff hose?

Accepted Answer

This hose is flexible

Question 2

Is this hose compatible with kohler hand held shower head kr75562-g-cp

Accepted Answer

I seriously do not think the hose could be compatible with your Kohler Bluetooth showerhead (in the Amazon image, the showerhead is attached to the shower arm fixed on the shower wall).  I hope you hear from other people to confirm that.

The KOHLER K-8593-CP MasterShower head that you want to pair the 72" metal shower hose with appears to be designed to attach to a shower water pipe arm fixed to the wall - not a hose.  (I could be wrong, but that's what the photos illustrate on the Amazon site)

If you can do without the Bluetooth music showerhead feature, buy a hand-held shower head like the "Delta ActivTouch Showerhead 59424-PK" ($40).

I bought 5 of the Delta handheld showerheads in 2017, so I've had a lot of positive experience with them.  It is a simple, one-handed control with 9 spray settings.  What I like about it most is that there is also a Pause Button for the water on the front AND back of the handset.

If you go with a handheld showerhead, have your plumber replace the shower pipe arm with a "Delta Faucet 50570 Wall Elbow Square, Chrome" ($36) and screw the 72" metal shower hose to it on one end, and the handheld showerhead to the other end - and you're in business. The ideal situation is to also add a vertical slide bar attached to the wall to hold the showerhead at the adjustable height you need for any height person.

A cheaper solution is:
Buy one that attaches to the original shower arm after removing your fixed showerhead - such as this one featured on Amazon  that comes with the 72" hose:
"All Metal Hand Held Shower Head with Hose and Holder, Polished Chrome | 2.5 GPM High Flow Regulator with Pressure Optimization | 4" Handheld Showerhead, 72 Inch Long Flexible Hose, Adjustable Bracket"
(which is $70 on Amazon for the entire kit.)  It has very good ratings on Amazon!

With the money that you'll save, you can skip the Bluetooth showerhead component and buy an Amazon Echo Dot (wide price range - but not expensive) to play your Financial News & Music in the bathroom - or any room.  The great thing about an Echo Dot is that it is portable.   (Plug it into any electrical outlet- and it plays your requested content via Wi-Fi.)

Obviously, you're an Amazon customer, so if you are a Prime Member, much of the Echo Dot massive content is available at no extra charge.

I just confirmed that all items I mentioned are still available on Amazon.

I hope that this helps and answers your question.

Good luck!
