Moen Farmhouse Kitchen Remodel

by
toddler playing with Moen Align MotionSense faucet technology
My toddler loves the hands-free MotionSense Wave technology.

My wife and I had been planning to remodel our kitchen for a few years, and a mold issue behind the dishwasher expedited the process. This accident expedited the process. Instead of repairing the damaged cabinets, we had the insurance company cut us a check to spend on a complete remodel. If you can get over living with torn-out cabinets and then a remodel for months, then this is what we call a happy accident. It paved the way for our new Moen farmhouse kitchen remodel. Maybe our experience will inspire you to overhaul your home’s layout, just like we did.

Scroll to near the end of the post to see before and after images.

What Did We Do?

Every kitchen is different, and in some cases, you may keep all your appliances or maintain your layout. We did not. The sky is the limit, so get as creative as possible.

Sink and Faucet

We wanted the kitchen sink to be a focal point. We love farmhouse style with the apron front, and white was the only option we considered. We actually bought an Elkay sink, but it arrived with a chip on the corner (FedEx’s fault). The manufacturer didn’t have anything in stock to replace it, so I got a refund through PlumbersStock. They handled all of that for me. Maybe this was a blessing in disguise because I got a wider 33-inch model, the Moen farmhouse sink (FC331910). I initially went with Elkay because they have a strong reputation for making quality sinks. Moen is fairly new to the sink game, but this one was highly rated, and I saved a little money.

There were no misgivings about what faucet we wanted. Although we weren’t sure about the color, we had been eyeing this Moen Align faucet (with MotionSense Wave) for a while. This Moen soap dispenser perfectly complimented the faucet, and the black air switch was a fun touch. The switch, of course, operates the fancy new 3/4 HP InSinkErator disposal. And we needed a black disposer flange to match everything else.

toto washlet g450 toilet installedWe are so excited about our new product release because it comes from one of our favorite manufacturers. TOTO is a leading global manufacturer of high-tech toilets and innovative bathroom solutions with a range of technologically advanced products. TOTO is discontinuing the G400 (you can still get it here while supplies last). Its replacement, the new TOTO G450 WASHLET, combines a cutting-edge toilet design with an integrated electronic bidet seat, just like its predecessor. So what’s different about the G450?

G450 vs. G400

Each generation of smart toilets brings something new to the table. There are two main ways the G450 is an upgrade over the G400. First of all, the G450 WASHLET is much more compact. It measures just 21 inches from the ground, at its highest point, which is 6 inches shorter than the G400. Second of all, the G450 can maintain the same level of flushing performance as the G400 but with a more efficient flush.
