Wall hung vanity units, are a great option for contemporary bathrooms. Wall hung vanities have the ability to create an illusion of more space in your bathroom and can be a perfect choice for many bathrooms. Wall mounted vanities can be customised in regard to the finish, basins, countertops, and colour, so stylising a vanity unique to your needs is achievable.
1. Pros
- Wall hung vanities make your bathroom look bigger and cleaner. By maximising the illusion of increased space. They are especially great for small bathrooms because they are space saving. A wall hung vanity is exactly that….hanging from your wall, you can use the space below for storage.
- Shallow depth wall hung cabinets work for narrow or small bathrooms.
- When your bathroom floor becomes wet, a wall hung vanity eliminates any concern for the bottom of the vanity becoming damaged.
- Wall hung vanities make your floors simple to clean and eliminate those hard to reach places where there is potential for mould to build up.
2. Cons
- A professional is always needed to install this style of vanity.
- They are a little more expensive than traditional vanities.
- Another disadvantage is the fixture. Since it is hanging, it needs solid support from a steel support frame that can be difficult to hide.
- Wall hung vanities have less internal room for storage than floor based traditional vanities.
- Have young children? Wall hung vanities are not the safest as the potential for a small child to climb and potentially the vanity to fall needs due consideration.
Whilst very elegant and modern, due consideration should be given when deciding to install a wall based vanity.
