Check out Kohler’s Stately Memoirs collection. They have a nice toilet and matching pedestal sink. The sinks come in different sizes. Also look at their Devonshire collection. I think they will look great in your powder room. And I think your dog will like them, too!

I always like the Kohler Memoirs line.

Thanks was looking at both of these!

Ok for sink width to fill that alcove space? Like 24 inches ok?

Most websites selling sinks provide links to install/technical specs documents that should provide measurements and clearance requirements you can review prior to purchase.

Kohler Memoirs for toilet and pedestal sink.

I chose the DXV Pedestal sink and the Kohler Memoirs toilet.

I can't stand Kohler Memoirs collection. They are ubiquitous so I must be the only one who doesn't like them. I had one in a house I moved in to and just found the proportions to be very unsatisfying and the rim really hard to keep clean.

I love the Duravit 1930 collection. (Who thought that was a good year to name a collection after?)

A console sink with polished chrome legs would be beautiful too.

Your floor, wall color, and dog are lovely.

Thank you! The house is 1924 so pretty darn close! :) I like those suggestions a lot and honestly something inside me is resisting any more kohler products. We just installed one of their cast iron tubs in the main bathroom and now that it's in and surrounded by tile, I can see how thin the enamel is in some places. I'm not sure they have the QT they once did. I will look at the duravits!

You have lots of good suggestions here…from Kohler to Duravit. All will look lovely in your new bathroom!

Look at DXV too. I have it for my kitchen sink and as mentioned above the sink in our guest bath.

The sink I chose is the exact same style I had in my first house which was a 1927 bungalow. The sink in my first house was the original sink.

A 24” recess is not wide enough for the code required spacing for either a toilet or a sink.

Her recess is 26/27" and it's certainly wide enough for the sink she wants to put there.

All of this is being done permitted and to code with inspections at every step. Thanks!

Speakman Glenwyn elongated comfort height one-piece. DH is 6’3” and wanted the height. I wanted a simple look without a bunch of nooks and crannies to clean.

- I like the look of the Memoirs collection, but note that they make a standard toilet + a toilet with a plain "back area" that will be easier to clean.

- Similarly, note that they offer multiple pedestal sinks ... I'd go with either the single-hole faucet or the wide-spread faucet, as they're easier to clean. I don't really like that the Memoirs pedestal sink has very wide edges. Seems like overkill.

- These Memoirs products seem to be overpriced, but Kohler is quality stuff.

Also look at their Devonshire collection.

- I like the Devonshire stuff better, though the toilet back isn't as easy-clean.

- I really like the sink.

And I think your dog will like them, too!

My own dog isn't very discerning.

I like that one!

Anyone have experience with the DXV Fitzgerald line?

There are sooo many iffy reviews on the Kohler toilets especially. What about an American Standard sink and a toto toilet. For some reason I keep gravitating to this sink: https://www.build.com/american-standard-0268-400/s12711?uid=3303#reviews The space is so square so I like something rounded.

Yes. That's the sink I have. See photo above in my post.

That sink looks to be a modern interpretation of a pedestal sink and looks like what everyone was using back in the 1980's. But hey, if you like it.

As for the Kohler toilet, I've had mine (3 in my house) for 5 years with no issues. Before that I had Kohler toilets in my condo with no issues.

Have had Kohler fixtures, (toilets, console sink, tub, etc.) with NO problems at all. Ever. Other brands, including American Standard and Toto…tons of problems. In a vacation rental property I am replacing (one by one) Toto toilets with Kohler for function as well as aesthetics. But that is why there are lots of choices out there. Find a brand that you like and in which you have confidence.

My Dad is an engineer who does a lot of plumbing and swears by Toto. I had a Toto promenade toilet in my old home and liked it so much I installed a second one. Never a problem and Toto toilets are by far easier to clean than any other toilet I have owned and need to be cleaned less frequently. The pic here is of the promenade II, which I don't like as much as the promenade I that I had.

The home that we most recently moved into has very nice faucets from Crosswater, a British brand I had never heard of. They are beautiful and no problems thus far. Less expensive than I would have thought, we bought more for the remodel of one of the older bathrooms. They would look good with any of the sinks people have recommended here.

There's NO reason a Toto toilet can't go with a different sink. The difference in whites ? Imperceptible. A sink can be anything. I'd shoot for a Toto toilet/universal /comfort height.

You should have been looking sooner? : )

I have three Toto toilets, one Clayton and two Promenade I styles. They all work very well and I have had them for many years. I agree with Kendrah that the Promenade I is a slightly better look than the II, but they both would work well in a 1924 era home. I also agree with Jan that you don't need to have a sink by the same manufacturer, most of the whites are complementary so just select the one that you like best and that fits in the space.

I promise you we are good - this is permitted. Maybe grandfathered (?) in bc opposite wall was a shower stall, same dimensions. We are updating both powder room and main bathroom with new, fully permitted plumbing.

I have to laugh when I see current “code.” I swear that there is no way the home that I grew up in, a ranch built by my parents in 1957, had any of those clearances for the toilet, sink, and tub. I suspect that the space from the (round) front of the toilet to the side of the tub was, maximum 24”. On a good day. I viewed a home in my neighborhood a week ago that was built in 1959. I swear that if I sat on the toilet, my knees would have been in the shower across from it. I wonder, though, about some of these code mandates and the reasoning behind them. Old home don’t have the space required for some of these “code” requirements. J S your bathroom will be beautiful! I can’t wait to see your choices!

Thank you so much! And to all for the great suggestions. Now leaning towards Devonshire toilet and sink so I can just make my decision already!!

And I agree - very few if any 100 year old homes have that clearance.

I love the dvx! Unclear if I can get it in time but on my mind

Agreed that whites generally go together and you can mix and match brands and collections. Perhaps availability and shipping times will make up your mind for you. Please post pics after install. Can't wait to see what you come up with for this beautiful space.

And yes, I lived in a city house built in 1852 that originally had an outhouse, and now live in an apartment from 1938 with tiny bathrooms. There is no way those codes would fit in my homes without completely demoing the place.

Update; believe it or not Walmart of all places has the above Durvavit octagonal looking pedestal sink - arriving Friday and can return as needed. Am going to order either the dvx Fitzgerald or the Devonshire toilet this morning. Wouldn’t mind saving a few dollars but that dvx sure is nice. May come down to a coin toss :)

What I do when I want to purchase something expensive for the house is figure out how many years I intend to live here, and divide the cost by the number of days I intend to live here. Usually comes down to a cup of coffee when I do that.
