Kartell K-VIT Trim Bathroom Furniture: The Complete Guide

If Pure is Kartell's small-space all-rounder, Trim is its sharper-edged sibling — the same gloss white finish, EU build quality, soft close technology and 2 year guarantee, paired with Kartell's crisp, squared Trim sanitaryware. And like Pure, the furniture comes as refreshingly complete packages: a WC unit set with the pan, seat and cistern all included, and a 550mm vanity cabinet with the basin and handles already in the box. Here's the full range, what's included, and how to style it.

The 500mm WC Unit Set — Everything Included

The Trim 500mm WC Unit Set bundles the gloss white furniture unit (IMP500WC), the Trim back to wall pan (POT473TR), the soft close quick-release seat (POT472TR) and the Kartell concealed cistern with chrome push button (ACC001N) into one price — £267.58 against an RRP of £486.50.

The unit is just 300mm deep, one of the slimmest WC units on the market, while the Trim pan's compact 485mm projection and clean square lines keep even a narrow cloakroom feeling open. Connect water and waste and the job's done — there's nothing else to source.

The 550mm Cabinet with Basin

The Trim 550mm Cabinet with Basin matches it on the washing side: a two door gloss white vanity with the Trim semi recessed ceramic basin (POT474TR, 1 tap hole) and a pair of chrome handles (HAN008) included, at £189.20 (RRP £344). Where a pedestal basin offers no storage at all, this gives you a full soft close cupboard in the same footprint.

The Matt Black Handle Upgrade

Gloss white with matt black accents is a brilliant look for compact bathrooms — and the cabinet listing makes it a one-click swap with the matt black handle upgrade (HAN009 x2). The same handles are available individually at £11.55 for retro-fits. Pair with black taps and a black-framed mirror to finish the theme.

More Trim Sanitaryware

Trim is one of Kartell's biggest sanitaryware families, so the suite extends well beyond the furniture. The back to wall pan is sold on its own or with the soft close seat, and if you'd rather skip concealed furniture altogether there's the Trim close coupled WC with cistern and seat, a corner cistern version for awkward layouts, and the close coupled pan as a separate. Everything shares the same squared design language, so pieces mix and match cleanly.

Trim or Pure — Which Should You Choose?

Honestly, you can't go wrong: the furniture units are identical and the prices match to the penny. The difference is the ceramic — Trim's pan and basin are crisper and more angular, while Pure is a touch softer in profile. Pick whichever ceramic style suits your room, or match whichever range your existing sanitaryware comes from.

Frequently Asked Questions

How deep is the Trim WC unit?

Does the 550mm cabinet come with a basin and handles?

Yes — the Trim semi recessed ceramic basin (POT474TR) and a pair of chrome handles (HAN008) are included in the price, with a matt black handle upgrade (HAN009) available from the dropdown.
