subject: A Bathroom Vanity Should Be Made Of High Quality Materials [print this page] So many people love to remodel their homes, but so few seem to pay attention to the bathroom. The bathroom seems to get passed over for the living room, bedrooms, and the kitchen. The problem is that not all your guests will visit your bedrooms, or your kitchen; but all your guests will need to use the restroom at one point or another. People need to take a second look at their bathroom and decide on improvements. You may need to replace shower curtain or shower rod; or perhaps you need to replace the sink.
The high quality bathroom vanity provides a level of luxury you cannot get from an ordinary sink. Imagine the impact of solid wood cabinets and high quality construction whenever you enter your bathroom. The cabinets are furnished with a protective coating that prevents water stains, water damage, and cracking and peeling. The sinks are usually made from solid, beautiful porcelain, while the counter tops are built from stunning marble and granite. Once you have experienced the quality, it is virtually guaranteed you will never look at bathroom vanities the same way again.
People make the mistake of thinking they will save money by choosing low quality vanities for their bathroom. They could not be more wrong. The fact is if you choose a poorer quality piece of furniture, you risk routine repairs and replacements that will certainly add up over the years. Did you know that most low quality bathroom vanities are made using pressed wood? When solid oak is cut into shape, pieces of wood are dropped below and saved to be used to make pressed wood. That is right, pressed wood is just scraps glued and pressed together. This wood will fail under pressure and break much more easily than solid wood. That makes sense since a solid piece is much sturdier than a bunch of pieces glued together.
Do not settle for less. Quality is the key to a long lasting bathroom vanity. Choose solid oak over poor quality wood. Make sure the wood is treated properly to prevent water damage and peeling. Do not neglect the look of your bathroom with just a sink nailed to a wall with all the piping showing beneath. Remember the right bathroom vanity will revive your bathroom and make it look brand new. Set the stage for the rest of the cast with nothing but high quality material for your vanity.
