How to Choose the Perfect Bathroom Vanity
Bathroom vanities are our main game! Here are some answers to questions we often get about how to choose yours!
Bathroom vanities are the focal point that set the tone for the entire bathroom space.
With a range of sizes and designs available, selecting a CIBO vanity as the first step in your renovation is a great way to define the design direction of your bathroom. Choosing your vanity upfront also helps to inform the selection of other elements such as floor tile, wall tile, tapware finishes, accessories, lighting fixtures as well as other bathroom furniture like mirror cabinets, linen and wall cabinets.
Beyond the aesthetics, the job of a vanity is to keep your bathroom organised and clutter-free with practical, user-friendly storage in the form of either drawers or cupboards or both. Many of CIBO’s vanity designs have handy drawer dividers in the top drawers to keep smaller items beautifully sorted.
Consider whether you want a vanity with a basin integrated into the top…as in the
Tonic Vanity range and Freshwater Vanity range. As a general rule, we recommend ceramic tops with integrated basins for heavy-traffic bathrooms that are used by the entire family every day. Choosing a vanity for the long haul means prioritising durable materials like ceramic, reducing ‘joins’ that need to be cleaned. The benefit of a top with an integrated basin is that it just takes a quick wipe over with a damp microcloth to keep it looking sparkling.
A different design option is a vanity cabinet topped with a CIBO Solid Surface benchtop and countertop basin as in the Nordic Vanity, Mornington Vanity and Finer Vanity ranges.
All CIBO vanities have soft-closing doors and drawers for added functionality.
First step when selecting the vanity or vanities for your bathroom is to determine what size width and depth can be accommodated within the space.
CIBO Bathroomware vanities come in a range of standardised sizes from the super compact Tonic Mini Wall Hung vanity with dimensions of only W 450 x D 250 x H 550mm right up to the Nordic Full Height 1500mm with dimensions of W 1500 x D 460 x H 845mm.
