Finding the best places to shop for toilets
We considered the following criteria in selecting the best places that sell toilets in Winnipeg:
1. Wolseley Canada

The Wolseley Company is noteworthy for its plumbing, waterworks, HVAC/R installation, and industrial piping services.
We were impressed at the array of brands their store carries, such as American Standard, Kohler, and Bemis. On top of that, they also have several models, from wall-hung to macerating toilets.
With over 150 locations, it’s also worth mentioning that they can deliver all over the country. So, you won’t have to worry about lugging your brand-new toilet all the way home.
Another added convenience is their online store. Here, you’ll find each item with detailed descriptions of which accessories and components it’ll work best with.
However, we found it odd that the store still features unavailable items (with some products already being phased out). Nevertheless, we like how the store provides suggestions on similar models that buyers can get instead.
We were also disappointed that prices are only displayed to members of Wolseley. You would have to apply to access its prices and exclusive perks.
From what we experienced, registering for membership is inconvenient and quite daunting for potential casual buyers. You’ll need to put in your business details, bank references, and trade references to be able to register.
Alternatively, you can visit their onsite stores. In our opinion, this is ideal for customers looking to find inspiration from their showrooms and bathroom setups.
Pros
- Detailed toilet options
- Suggests alternatives for unavailable items
Cons
- Non-members can’t see prices
- Inconvenient online registration
Customer Reviews
A hub of everything plumbing-related
“Have never been before but was directed there by one of my plumbers to look for an old outdated part. All I had was a picture. She knew what it was but didn’t have the parts in stock. What she did have was a handle that was missing a part but said to take it for free and see what I could do. Part fit PERFECTLY. Bought a $2 set screw and its finally fixed just in time. Couldn’t be happier with this place and you bet it’s the first place I go from now on.” – Adam T.
Great customer service
“Was picking up a part for our home. Leslie was the lady who gave me a hand picking out what I needed. She showed me a couple options, explained the differences, offered a lot of information! Leslie was very helpful, knowledgeable, and just a pleasure to deal with.” – Tim Mikolash
2. Dynasty Bathrooms & Kitchen Centre

Dynasty Bathrooms & Kitchen Centre is known for doing countertops, shower doors, tiled walls and floors, and toilets and bathtub installations.
We explored its online store and it currently carries 13 toilet brands such as Toto, Kohler, Caroma, and American Standard, among others.
The store even carries toilets with quirky shapes, such as square and round ones, which we think are perfect for adding geometric accents to otherwise plain bathrooms.
If you’re looking for design inspiration, Dynasty has virtual and physical showrooms available.
From our perspective, the virtual showroom was quite fun to explore as it gives customers a 360-degree tour of the different bathroom setups.
But if you prefer seeing and getting to feel the real thing, dropping by either the North or South physical showrooms will be a better alternative.
Note that you’ll need to pre-book an appointment before visiting the showroom. This step seems inconvenient, but we think it’s ideal as you’ll avoid an influx of visitors from cramping the showroom.
A downside to Dynasty is that you can only have your items shipped only by appointment and only on weekdays.
For larger items, it’s best to get them at the North Showroom as the other branch doesn’t ship larger items. You’ll also need to schedule for pick-up first before having your items delivered.
In case you get the wrong toilets delivered or didn’t like what you bought, you may return them to Dynasty, but with a restocking fee.
You will need to pay up to 35% of each of the items’ selling prices for the company to take the items back, which can be costly if you need to return more than one unit.
Items for return are also subject to managers’ approval, which means you’ll need to wait before you can take what you’ve bought back to the store.
Pros
- Impressive toilet selection
- Virtual and physical showrooms available
Cons
- Large items require pre-scheduled pick-ups
- Returning items can be inconvenient
Customer Reviews
A great bathroom reno experience overall
“We recently renovated our bathroom and we had a great experience at Dynasty choosing our items. Bridget walked us through all the ins and outs of the cabinetry, tubs and faucets and took the time to answer all our questions and made us feel comfortable and confident in what we purchased. We had a problem with a wrong part with our faucet and Bridget was able to contact her rep and have it in our hands before the contractors wrapped up for the day – great service! Quality along with customer service is a driving factor in a successful business and Dynasty has done this well.” – Lisa Carr
Great showrooms and knowledgeable staff
“Working with Dynasty has been amazing. From my first visit there to just “look around” to the completion of our bathroom renos. The best part of the whole experience was working with Bridget, their sales consultant. She guided me through the selection process and made sure I was well informed when it came time to make decisions. Her expertise and honesty was truly appreciated. And even though they were not doing the install, she worked seamlessly with our contractor – an added bonus. I would highly recommend if you are looking to do a bathroom reno, that you stop by here first and ask for Bridget!!” – Lori Mahoney

Robinson Lighting & Bath is a locally-owned store that popular brands of toilets such as Kohler, Duravit, Foremost, and American Standard.
We also like how it carries unique toilet models, such as wall-hung, bolted, elongated, and square-shaped types, for those who prefer quirky bathroom interiors.
To date, Robinson doesn’t offer installation and maintenance services as it is currently focused on providing bathroom and kitchen supplies.
For us, this is quite inconvenient since you’ll need to enlist the help of a third party to get your toilets installed.
What we love about this store is that many of its toilet varieties are ready to ship, which means you won’t have to wait too long to get your desired toilets.
You can also pre-order newer models or make special orders of toilets and accessories that are already rare.
We also love the beautiful bathroom displays at Robinson’s showrooms. From our perspective, exploring these setups helps in selecting the right toilets and other bathroom components.
Now, shopping here can be a little tricky. For one, Robinson’s online store does not accept debit card transactions at the moment, and only accommodates Visa, MasterCard, or American Express credit cards.
Another downside is that staff will require two business days to review refund requests. You’ll also need to wait for seven to 14 business days for your refund to be processed and returned to you.
Pros
- Most items are ready-to-ship
- Impressive bathroom showroom displays
Cons
- Does not offer installation services
- Does not accept debit card transactions online
- Refunds can take 7 to 14 business days
Customer Reviews
A great place for anything bathroom related, with helpful staff
“Staff has always been quite pleasant and helpful everytime I have been in. Recently I needed some parts for a shower enclosure and they were more than happy to add the parts order, to save me some shipping, fees to their own regular order. Thanks again for helping me save a few dollars! Every bit helps.” – Jon F.
Happy with how our kitchen and bathroom turned out in the end!
“My husband and I are building a cabin and decided to check out Robinson on all bath, kitchen, laundry, etc fixtures and are we ever glad we did. We walked in and were immediately greeted by the friendly staff. Having a 2.5 year old and a 6 month old with us, we told Stacey, the specialist who was working with us that we had a “kid” time restriction. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable, she was also very efficient and professional. She listened to our needs and was actively able to show us pieces that were a perfect fit. She worked within our budgetary means and when needed, suggest similar products that were more affordable without loosing the quality. We were in and out in 2 hours and had “dressed” our entire cabin with all the necessities. Within a week she had emailed us a picture board of all the products we were interested in, placed them in a room category (master ensuite bathroom, kitchen, laundry, etc) and priced everything out for us. When changes were required, she was diligent at finding an alternative piece and making it work. Overall, we were extremely happy with our experience at Robinson bath for staff, products and price. Highly recommended!!” – Dana Vivian

If you’re looking for unique toilet designs that will set your bathroom apart from others, then GreenSlade is the designer and bathroom supplier for you.
Since 2005, the design duo behind this company has provided stunning interiors for kitchens and bathrooms in homes across Winnipeg.
A slight drawback though is that it doesn’t have an online store at the moment, which we think is inconvenient since customers will need to go to its physical store to get a look at its toilet models.
On the bright side, its website has a list of its partner suppliers for bathroom fixtures and their websites.
We looked into its inventory and found brands that boast handcrafted and well-designed toilets, sinks, tiles, faucets, bathtubs, and shower heads.
Some featured toilet brands include Simas Italy, Produit Neptune, and Crosswater London.
A light downside though to these brands is that it has a smaller pool of toilet options compared to standard brands.
On the bright side, the store also carries popular names such as Kohler and Duravit. For us, these are also more convenient to get ahold of and may offer similar toilet styles to what the unique international names offer.
Perhaps our favourite part is its beautiful showroom display. We explored the place and found stunning samples of bathroom setups that cater to traditional and contemporary home interiors.
We also appreciate the owners for being present at the store to help anyone looking for efficient and stunning designs for their bathrooms and kitchens.
Pros
- Carries unique toilet designs
- Beautiful showroom displays
Cons
- Currently does not have an online store
- Some brands have limited toilet options
Customer Reviews
Designers knew what they were doing from the get go
“Went in knowing pretty much exactly what I wanted but not for everything. Courtney was incredibly helpful, fantastic customer service and offered some design ideas I really appreciated. Wish there were more like her out there.” – John Kamchen
A pleasant experience with the project designers.
“We worked with Courtney at Greenslade when we remodeled our bathroom she was very helpful knowledgeable and easy to work with! We would be pleased to work with her on future projects!” – Jim Beveridge

While it currently doesn’t have an online store, we love how The Ensuite opens its communication channels to anyone interested in exploring its products or perhaps to make a schedule of visiting the showrooms.

Speaking of showrooms, The Ensuite has virtual and physical showrooms where you’ll find stunning samples of shower and loo setups perfect for different home designs.
We explored its physical showroom and found quite an array of toilet styles such as wall-hung, skirted, one-piece, two-piece, and models integrated with night lights.
What’s fun about visiting the showroom is you’ll get to see and feel how the toilets actually look in reality.
You’ll also get the chance to carefully assess which toilets will be the most cost-efficient as well as comfortable and stylish in the long run.
If you’ve purchased other items besides a new toilet, you may have them delivered to your doorstep to save you the hassle of stacking them in your car.
Note that The Ensuite’s delivery services are only available on weekdays from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM.
