    Perfect fit with Retrospect Pedestal Sink Basin
    Understated and elegant. I have a great tile floor, and it allows it to show perfectly.

    Love this pedestal now that it’s in my bathroom. It looks perfect and works great for my height of 5’7”, our plumber did have a problem leveling the back feet though. Because it will only adjust to a certain height on the back that will not level with the front. For my own aesthetic looks I had him add extra 1 3/4 rubber furniture pads on the back two legs to make it look as if the pedestal was level.

    Great design that hides all visible fasteners, finish is flawless, and the base is surprisingly sturdy.

      I bought one of these 11 years ago for a small bathroom and we have loved it. We use the towel racks for a wash cloth and hand towel and the lower shelf is high enough to slide a scale underneath. It has worked out so well that I bought this new one for our other tiny bathroom. It looks great under the American Standard retrospect sink.

      This console was perfect for my small bathroom. I loved the extra space to hang hand towels and the shelf at the bottom displays accessories beautifully.

      You can feel the quality when taking this out of the box. Assembly is fairly straightforward. Completes the look of my vintage style bath renovation. Have made a few purchases from Home Depot recently and have been very happy with them.

      Love it BUT...
      We've had this since our remodel in 2007. The glaze is cracking on our sink too! It is spiderwebbing from the drain & getting worse. Very disappointed because we love the design however it needs to be replaced. Like other reviewers, we chose this sink & vanity because it complimented the period of our home. It kills me to replace this because we paid a lot of money for this from a plumbing supply house. We were told we were buying higher quality products that would last for years.

        I have had my sink in my seldom used powder room since about 2007 or 08 and loved the look, but in the last year the glaze or something seems to have cracked. At first I thought it was some sort of stain, I couldn't believe how it could have cracked, but after very close examination it definitely has cracks all over it. Still operational, but not so pretty anymore. I am disappointed as I thought a sink of this price level should last a lifetime, especially in a powder room. I have the ceramic base rather than the chrome console and it's just the sink itself with cracks. I have the Retrospect toilet, too, and have had to replace the flushing mechanism and handle twice.

          very unstable
          There is a small threaded rod through the middle of each hollow leg from top to bottom. So when the table is assembled it will not stand up on its own. On the bottom of the matching sink, it does have an insert for the front legs to fit into, so no guessing there. Leveling - don't understand why the front legs are longer than the back legs. You can level the back legs only, but have very little adjustment. Only after the sink is on the table and the sink is bolted to the wall is there any stability. The value I rated high only because when purchasing both table and sink as a package from Home Depot, the price could not be beat when I checked as a contractor with wholesale plumbing stores. General contractor and Licensed plumber assembled and not all that impressed.

          Beautiful Sink; Suspect Quality
          Purchased and installed this sink in 2008. We always get compliments on the look and style. It is, however, time-consuming to clean. Unfortunately after 7 years the glaze layer is staring to crack.

            Great for small bathrooms
            I purchased this a few years ago for a small 1950s bathroom. I love the way it makes the space feel larger. It has style and to spare

              Love the look and the function.
              I bought one for a 130+ year old home we remodeled and loved it. So when we bought a '50s home that had a medium-sized bath ... this is the one we went for again. Happy we did. There is enough sink-top space for a few everyday items. With the stainless console legs it is nice & tall (we are both over 6ft), and no more hitting my leg on a counter edge. Price is high for the set, but less than Kohler styles ... and was better classic style for an older home.

              High Quality Product
              I like the look of this product and my contactor agreed that it was really well made and had no problems installing it. I did have to purchase seperately rubber pads for the feet so that the chrome did not sit directly on the tiles. Seems to me that they should have been included, but that is a minor point. It is installed and is very solid. I paired it with the Retrospect American Standard sink. The sink is a very slight off white so be prepared if you are pairing it with a very white toilet.

                Very unique sink stand
                While this chrome/glass stand is pretty expensive it is also very substantial and heavy. We love it however and it's very unique and something different from using the usual pedestal installation. It was easy to put together and I love the lower glass shelf. This was a great solution for our small bathroom where we couldn't use the deeper cabinets and sinks.

                nice at a good price
                I like pedestal sinks, and this is a solid, good-looking one with towel racks and a glass shelf for storage, at a good price.

                  Great console - substandard packing and box!
                  The console arrived in an extremely damaged box with crumbling packing. So much so that the glass shelf was unprotected and was freely sliding around inside the box. Fortunately it wasn't broken and the console appears to be in good condition.

                    Retrospect Console Table With Chrome Legs
                    It's a space saving, and beautiful part in the washroom of my basement. There is limited space in the washroom. If I want to install something with console table, it will be not possible, unless I want to move the door. This one solved my problem. Thanks.
