Bought to replace an R2 (Roper Rhodes) basin that was so sloped the water kept spilling over the edges. We love the R2 Vanity Unity, so bought a piece of oak to act as a countertop, gave it several coats of water protection and got a plumber to fit the countertop and basin. Overall, I'm happy with the outcome (including the price and delivery from QS Supplies). My ion criterion was a single tap hole with overflow with as much depth as possible to hold the largest amount of water and NO SLOPING SIDES. This Ideal Standard Strada was the best I could find after many months of intermittent searching, but it doesn't hold much depth of water up to the overflow hole. I guess this is the price of having an overflow - in that there has to be space under the basin for the water to pass from the overflow to the drain hole, which reduces the depth of water in the basin. In my experience, it seems that the majority of new/modern basins are designed to look good, but they don't particularly well - unless all you want it for is washing your hands under a running tap.
I recently purchased the Ideal Standard Strada White Countertop Basin with 1 Taphole (QS-V15042) from QS Supplies, and I'm thoroughly impressed. The sleek design instantly elevated the look of my bathroom, offering a modern yet less appeal. The ordering process was straightforward, and the basin arrived well-packaged, ensuring no damage during transit. Installation was a breeze, thanks to the clear instructions. Its quality is evident in its smooth finish and sturdy build. The basin complements my bathroom decor perfectly, providing an al yet elegant centrepiece. Overall, a fantastic buy from QS Supplies - highly recommended for anyone seeking a blend of style and practicality.

Anna Asked :Can the 500mm Ideal Standard Strada be fitted as wall mounted and not countertop? If so, do you have some brackets? If not, is there a similar wall-mounted version, please? Also, is there a complimentary freestanding toilet you would recommend to accompany.
The Ideal Standard Strada has a wall mounting option using a basin fixing set with 14cm rag bolts for solid walls. Please select the option for the basin fixing set from the Customise Your Product section - OP-2378.
phil Asked :How is the basin secured to the countertop and is anything required supplied? I have noticed the detail shows bolt holes, but in the application where the basin would be away from the back wall, these would not be utilised.
When fitting this basin to a countertop, it must be wall-mounted using our fixing kit E00767 (available as an optional product). It should then be joint sealed using a waterproof sealant.
