How To Choose The Perfect Bathroom Vanity

The bathroom is only a few square meters, but it is the most frequently used place in the home.

The role of the bathroom vanity in the bathroom can be said to be irreplaceable, but there are also many people who choose the wrong bathroom vanity, and there are problems such as old-fashioned style, moldy deformation, and insufficient storage space.

So, how to choose the perfect bathroom vanity?

1. Choose wall mounted instead of freestanding 

If you can do the wall mounted vanity, don't choose the freestanding type.

Although the freestanding vanity has a larger storage capacity, the overall appearance is bulky, and the bottom of the bathroom vanity is in direct contact with the wet ground, which is not only easy to hide dirt, but also affects the service life of the bathroom vanity.

The wall mounted vanity is not only more beautiful and refreshing, but also has more advantages in cleaning, and can also be freely stored under the cabinet.

2. Choose undermount basin instead of drop-in basin

The drop-in basin is beautiful and it can be made into different shapes, but the disadvantage is that the connection between basin and the countertop is prone to hygienic dead corners, and it will turn black after a long time of use, affecting the appearance.

Therefore, it is more recommended to choose the undermount basin, which is beautiful and has no dead ends, and it is more convenient to clean.

3. Choose ceramic basin instead of slate basin

The materials of the basin include ceramics, artificial stone, slate, marble, etc. Among them, ceramics are the most cost-effective, easy to clean, and durable.

Although the slate basin has an advanced appearance, due to the limitations of the plate, the slate basin cannot be made into a one-piece basin surface with a curvature. After using it for a long time, the right-angled gaps around it will start to turn yellow and black, which is difficult to clean, and the sharp corners also have potential safety hazards.

And because it is processed by glue collage, it will withstand the impact of water for a long time, which will also cause the glue to fall off.

4. Choose solid wood or wood-based panel cabinets, not PVC cabinets

At present, the common bathroom vanity materials on the market are solid wood, wood-based panels, PVC, stainless steel, etc.

PVC material belongs to chemical panel, which has better resistance to temperature changes, so it will not leave scratches easily, and it has a good performance in waterproofing. However, its shortcomings are also obvious. First, the load-bearing capacity is poor. Second, it contains many plastic components, which will release some toxic substances and threaten the human body. Therefore, it is not recommended to buy.

5. Choose brass faucet instead of zinc alloy faucet

When you buy a bathroom basin, the faucet is usually delivered as a package, but the faucet is used so frequently every day. If the faucet is of inferior quality, the rust-yellow water will flow out of the faucet every day, which is very annoying.

The main materials of the faucet are: brass, zinc alloy and stainless steel. Among them, brass is the mainstream product, and the faucet of pure zinc alloy contains many impurities, and heavy metals may be precipitated during the use process, which poses a threat to the human body.
