We have a small half bath off a hallway adjacent to the kitchen. Across the hall is a good size laundry room so storage is not a huge issue. The wall the pedestal sink is on is 48 inches, the sink itself is 24 inches. It is pitting and staining and despite our best efforts to clean it, it's stained and it's just time to replace. The exact pedestal sink is over $650 now, I figured if we're going to spend that I wouldn't mind a small vanity, just to put towels in, cleaning supplies, though not necessary. My husband is opposed. He wants the pedestal. He states it will look too crammed (small areas on each side hard to clean) and because when we did this over in 2017, he already moved the plumbing once we're not going to move it again so that's not an option. Opinions? And before anyone comments yes it's gray we cannot replace the flooring, yes I can paint. The faucet is also pitting and we will replace along with the mirror and the lights.
TLDR; need to either replace the pedestal sink or a small vanity, husband wants a sink I want a vanity. Last picture is an example of a vanity I'm looking at, can still clean underneath. less
Cross posted on bathroom remodel and a lot of people are saying pedestal sinks are dated, would love to know from legitimate interior designers if you feel this is accurate? I always thought they were pretty timeless.
