Black toilets and sinks
Black toilets and sinks
by Chrisdee » Wed Sep 13, 2023 3:24 pm
Was in Leroys buying the drain disinfectant and noticed they are selling black toilets and sinks, can't think of anything worse, well, apart from some of those colours from the 70s, like Avocado etc

Probably less cleaning. Might lead to unintended consequences if you forgot to put the light on in the middle of the night

I was thinking limescale marks, don't think it would stay nice for long. Not that it think it's nice to start with

I saw this display and it reminded me of my SEPIA toilet and wash hand basin with gold plated taps chosen by me many years ago for our cloakroom. It really looked smart but demanded constant cleaning which was a good thing for hygiene purposes but a pain in the neck!! Those were the days but they seem to be coming back again. We changed all our bathrooms before covid and replaced with smart wash hand basin drawered units. All wonderful but the basins are shallow and wouldn’t have a look in with the original basins. The fancy single tap isn’t nearly as efficient as the old taps. There was a wash hand basin unit in my daughter’s old bedroom so had it replaced with a very smart “bowl” on top of the unit. It’s actually fine and looks classy but I’m not sure I’d want to be washing my hair in it!!

I dont know about black toilets and sinks but i sorely regret installing a black granite shower base in my bathroom
They look great when clean but keeping them clean is a nightmare , you clean it and when dry it looks a mess
If i had known i would have gone for a white one

Same here telmel with a granite countertop. We have a lot of lime in our water so the built in draining board has lots of lovely lime deposits and white streaks and unfortunately you see every crumb and piece of dust on top of the countertop I have one of those washand bowls that sit on top of the unit. Again never again thank you.

What are we all like? Is it any wonder that young people tiday want a BELFAST SINK. THERE’S nothing to beat it. Deep, pure white and easy to keep clean. No more fads for me. The granite worktop refuses to keep a shine so the new thing to buy is a polished concrete worktop.
