American Standard Cadet 8-Inch Widespread Pedestal Sink Top and Leg Combination - AMS-236811

Both pieces come together. The Cadet 236811 is a top-and-leg combination, so you get the vitreous china lavatory basin and the matching pedestal column, plus the mounting kit for anchoring the top to the wall.

Yes. The pedestal leg carries part of the load but the basin is wall-anchored, and the Cadet ships with a mounting kit for that connection. Plan for solid backing in the wall at the bracket line before the drywall goes up, or you will be opening it back up.

Assembled top and leg together stand 35 inches (889 mm) to the rim. Worth checking against your rough-in for the supplies and trap, since the pedestal column has to conceal them.

It has a rear overflow, so it takes a standard lavatory pop-up or grid drain with overflow ports. A drain assembly made for overflow-less vessel basins will not vent correctly here.

A pedestal like the Cadet hides the trap and supplies inside the column, so it looks finished without a vanity and without exposing rough plumbing. A wall-hung lavatory leaves the floor clear underneath, which matters for accessible clearances and for mopping in commercial restrooms, but the piping is visible unless you add covers. If the goal is a clean residential look over a standard rough-in, the pedestal is the simpler call.

The Cadet top includes a faucet ledge with a generous shelf area and a dedicated soap/accessory ledge, which is part of why it gets specified in small baths and hotel rooms where there is no vanity deck.

The Cadet basin and pedestal are vitreous china, the standard glazed material for commercial and multi-family lavatories. It is non-porous, cleans with ordinary bathroom chemicals, and resists staining, which is why it holds up in high-turnover units. It will chip if struck hard, so handle it carefully during set.
