KOHLER has expanded its array of high-end bathroom design solutions with the regional launch of the Kohler Persuade collection.
The new collection embodies Kohler’s philosophy of functionality without sacrificing aesthetics, offering versatile looks and innovative toilet technology whilst delivering a luxurious experience to users.
The collection includes a seamless, one-piece lavatory, a petite vanity, a full-height vanity and a console table. Moreover, the Persuade dual-flush toilet is now available with Kohler Comfort Height design, raising the bowl to make using it easier for people of all ages and statures.
The Persuade Curv integrated lavatory mimics the natural design lines of the toilet, combining ample ledge space for grooming products with a deep rinse basin. The lavatory fits any standard 63.5 cm by 55.9 cm vanity making it ideal for retrofit and new construction.
“This collection underscores Kohler’s innovative solutions for small spaces,” says Mohamed Nada, regional marketing manager for Kohler in the Middle East.
Each of the furniture pieces is varied and unique, and offers homeowners a choice to personalise their bathroom space with a console table, petite vanity, or full-height vanity with copious storage space. The console table also fits the integrated lavatory, and has three integrated towel bars for added functionality. The petite vanity has two pull-out drawers, and a frosted glass bottom shelf, while the full-length vanity is ideal for discreet storage of bathroom products.
The toilet utilises Kohler’s dual-flush technology, allowing users the option of selecting one of two water levels each time they flush and thus providing an effective tool for water saving.
The Persuade toilet is WaterSense labelled, which ensures consumers are purchasing a product that reduces water usage, says Nada.
WaterSense is a partnership programme sponsored by the US Environmental Protection Agency. To be eligible, toilets must flush, on average, with 20 per cent less water than the standard 6.06 litres per flush.
Operated by a user-friendly, two-button actuator integrated into the top of the Persuade toilet’s tank lid, the toilet can flush either six litres or half that amount – three litres. The two-piece toilet features a skirted toilet bowl, which delivers a clean look and is significantly more hygienic than other models, eliminating potential debris build-up around the trapway and bowl-tank connection.
The collection is available through Kohler’s Middle East network.
