Toilets are OK. Can get to them. And when the kids were small, always
kept an extra wax ring, and they would dump something down the toilet and
plug the dang thing. Under sinks are the worst. No really room. I am a
big guy. 6'4" and 46" Xlong coat.

One thing I found is, it goes a lot easier if you use the new hose
type connections for the faucet hook up. The newer faucets also have
extended pigtails on the water inputs so they are below the sink base.
The Price Pfisters I have in the kitchens also have an extended bolt
deal to hold them down so you are just working with a socket, not a
basin wrench and you are not on your back inside the cabinet.
Some time it is easier just to pull the sink out, plumb it and put it
back. My wife usually jumps in and cleans all of that stuff that was
hard to get to with the sink in place.
In the master bath I have some hard to get at Delta faucets but I took
a key from the PPs and extended the intake pipes so I can see them
below the sink. The typical 1/2" NPT stems have an internal diameter
that lends itself to tapping to 1/4" pipe and then you can extend it
down with a pipe nipple, put a female adapter to 3/8 compression and
screw on one of those hoses. The collar nut that locks it to the sink
still slips right over all of that.
