Sink and faucet question

Hi everybody,



I recently purchased this kohler faucet

And unfortunately I am having a bit of difficulty finding a sink to fit it. It has an 8 inch spread and Lowes and Home Depot don't seem to have the size I am looking for. Many pedestal sinks come with faucet holes drilled this distance apart but I am really looking for a vanity. Is this a very unusual size for a sink??

That's a pretty unusual faucet but really cool.

8" centers are mostly found on pedestal style sinks, "modern" sinks are 4"

Normally one has the sink & gets a faucet to match.

You could use:

1)a vanity top with an integral sink with 8" centers

I found some of these but they come as complete units: vanity, top/sink WITH a faucet set...pretty spendy

(the cheapest)

OR

2) a wooden top vanity with a drop in basin w/o faucet holes, mount the faucet in the vanity top (not my first choice)

3)drop in basin w/ 8" centers

Think you will find that kitchen sink standard is 8" OC, and vanity are 4" OC. You can get 6", some places.

A Kohler 8" center faucet calls for a Kohler 8" center sink...

Or copy all of this text into Google: lavatory 8" center

-pedestal +"drop in"

Kohler makes vanity sinks with this spacing, check the links on the page you provided the link for. The list prices are pretty high but you may find a deal online if you google it.
