cove or quarter round for toe kick

Really doesn’t matter that much, but I normally just put in 1/4 round.

1/4 rnd is traditional and the shadowing looks better visually.

Base shoe. Similar to quarter round, but taller than it is wide. Base shoe will be something like 3/4 tall by 1/2 wide, where quarter round is the same dimension in both directions.

Agree with JayT. Base shoe. I the height is what you’re looking for, probably, and the extra depth of 1/4 round is annoying to people with larger feet, when they kick into it. Don’t use cove. It’ll look funny.

Another vote for base shoe. 1/4 round always looks dated and kinda cheap to me. That’s my personal opinion, of course, but I’ve done a lot of kitchen remodeling, and always replaced with base shoe molding.

I don’t like either one. I made a flat molding, looks better.
