Bathroom Vanity Units, also referred to as Sink Vanity Units are essential for creating a stylish modern bathroom. They provide sufficient space to get organised and ready for a busy day ahead.
Bathroom City's extensive selection of Bathroom Vanity Units is proudly manufactured in the UK. We use premium quality materials, offer competitive prices, and feature unique designs that benefit from sharp attention to detail and fine craftsmanship. We offer various sizes and styles, including:
Freestanding Vanity Units
Freestanding vanity units, also known as floor-standing vanity units, sit flat on the ground. This is the easiest vanity unit to install, as the weight of the unit rests on the floor.
Wall-Hung Vanity Units
Also known as floating vanity units or wall-mounted vanity units, these units are perfect for small bathrooms as they free up the floor space beneath. The entire weight of the unit is borne by the wall. Hence, the bathroom wall needs to be sturdy enough.
Cloakroom Vanity Units
Cloakroom vanity units are relatively small and can be easily accommodated even in small bathrooms. While both freestanding and wall-hung models are available, the latter can maximise floor space.
Corner Vanity Units
Corner vanity units take up less space compared to other units because they are made to fit in bathroom corners. Despite their minuscule dimensions, they provide ample storage space.
Combination Vanity Units
Combination vanity units are primarily toilet and washbasin combos. In this unit, a storage cupboard is also integrated into the toilet and sink combo.
Large Vanity Units
Large vanity units have multiple drawers, shelves, or both, offering generous storage space. They are suitable for large bathrooms.
Double Sink Vanity Units
Double sink vanity units are ideal for multi-tasking as they provide more personal space. Their extra-large dimensions make them a perfect fit for family bathrooms.
