1. Your Bathroom Size and Vanity Units
Size is the first thing to look out for when choosing a vanity unit. You can’t cram a huge vanity unit into a small bathroom, the same way installing a small size vanity in a large bathroom is not ideal. So, look at your bathroom space and layout and take measurements of it. Also, measure the height, width, and depth of your vanity. Bathroom vanities usually come in sizes 60cm, 75cm, 90cm, 120cm, 150cm, 180cm and other custom sizes.
455mm is usually the standard depth of bathroom vanity units and we also offer compact vanities with shallower cabinets. The height depends on whether it's a wall-hung or freestanding vanity. Wall-hung vanities are usually 520mm in height, while freestanding vanities are usually 830mm in width.
As you measure, remember to allow some extra space for the slide of drawers, swing of doors, and overlap of the countertop. For children's bathrooms, a narrower vanity unit with a width of 40cm is recommended for easy accessibility. In master bathrooms, a 120cm-180cm width vanity with double basins is perfect. For guest bathrooms, 60cm-90cm width vanity with a single basin should be comfortable and accessible to both children and adults. The idea is to choose a bathroom vanity unit that works well for your needs and suits your bathroom space.
2. The Bathroom Size
A master’s bathroom serves more needs than a powder room, so the vanity units you install should differ in size, material, style, and storage. A small vanity unit will be ideal for a powder room or compact bathroom because there’s little to no need for storage and only requires a small bowl for hand washing. A master's bathroom or large family bath will require a large vanity unit with a double sink and multiple cabinets or shelves. A medium-sized vanity will serve the guest bathroom with just enough space for a few necessities and an average-sized sink. Bathrooms are generally wet and busy places. In addition to that, your vanity unit regularly comes in contact with makeup and cleaning products. So, it is vital to choose a vanity made with durable materials to withstand the environment in which the vanity will be used. Waterproof materials like laminate and wood veneers are the best option for the surface finish of your bathroom vanity. Marble and granite are the best materials for the countertops. Ideally, you want to choose vanities made with durable but low-maintenance materials.
3. Bathroom Style
Vanities come in an endless sea of styles, shapes, and sizes, all of which suit different bathroom styles. We have the wall-hung bathroom vanities and the floor-mounted vanities. They also come in various styles from traditional to rustic, antique, modern, contemporary, and more. You can choose the style design that best suits your bathroom style and decor.
4. Your Storage Need
Consider how many items you need to store and how you want to keep them before deciding on the vanity unit to buy. Wall hung vanities provide ample storage, but floor-mounted vanities have much more room. Some wall-hung and freestanding vanities come with detachable, spacious drawers and shelves. You can also use drawer dividers to organize your stuff in the drawers.
5. Your Plumbing System
Considering your current plumbing system will save you the cost of rerouting pipes and drains. Floor mount vanities will usually use your existing plumbing but installing a wall hung vanity will require you to change your plumbing system. Changing your plumbing setup will cost you time and money, so factor this into your decision.
Your bathroom vanity unit is the one piece of furniture that brings your entire design together. It makes your morning rush hour a little less stressful and makes evening unwind time comfortable. So, if you are looking to buy a vanity unit in Melbourne, make sure to buy a quality, durable unit that you will enjoy.
