About Sterling
Sterling is a Kohler Company subsidiary brand (acquired by Kohler in 1984), positioned as the volume tract-builder and value-residential plumbing line. Manufactured in Wisconsin alongside Kohler products but engineered to a different price point — Sterling toilets, faucets, and showers are stocked at Home Depot and Lowes as the "Kohler-quality without the Kohler price" alternative. The toilet line includes the Stinson, Karsten, and Riverton series — primarily two-piece elongated 1.28 GPF models for new-construction spec houses.
For the complete Sterling lineup across all sub-types and capacities, see the Sterling Toilets hub.

About Wall-Hung & In-Wall Tank Toilets toilets
A wall-hung toilet is bolted to a steel carrier inside the wall — not to the floor. The tank is hidden between studs, the bowl floats six to ten inches above the tile, and the only surface element is a slim flush plate. It's the design move that defines European-styled bath remodels in the US and the format that's exploded in luxury condos since around 2018.
- You need a deeper-than-standard wall. The carrier (the steel frame the bowl bolts to, holding the tank inside) is 8" deep — meaning you need a 2x6 framed wall, or you need to bump out a 2x4 wall by furring or building a knee-wall bump-out. Retrofitting a wall-hung into a 2x4 wall almost always means a bump-out.
- The carrier is the real product — not the bowl....
