Shopping for new bathroom vanities will likely make you aware of how many shapes, sizes, and styles of vanities are on the market. You don't necessarily need to look for a product that is a close match to the old vanity that you're replacing. Instead, many people enjoy looking for something that is entirely different as a way to dramatically transform the look of their bathroom. One type of vanity that may catch your eye is a wall-mounted model. Instead of sitting on the floor like other models, this product has open space beneath it. Here are some reasons that you may wish to choose a wall-mounted vanity.
You Can Store Things Below It
While most vanities provide some degree of storage inside of them, a wall-mounted unit will also provide you with storage space below the unit. While it's unlikely that you'd want to place loose objects in this location, one option to consider is buying some baskets that match your bathroom and sliding them beneath the vanity. This can be a good option for children's toys, for example. If your kids use toys in the bath and you don't want them to take up valuable storage space inside of the unit, you can store them in baskets under the unit. In this position, they'll also be easy for your children to retrieve.
You'll See More Of The Floor
A vanity that sits on the floor of your bathroom covers up some of the room's flooring. This might not matter to some people, but if you've just invested in a new type of flooring, you may want to see as much of it as possible. For example, if you've chosen tiles that have an appearance that you love, you may not be keen to cover some of them up with a vanity. A wall-mounted structure will keep the tiles beneath it visible for you to enjoy.
You Can Get Closer To It
If you're the type of person who often leans over your vanity — perhaps to apply makeup or carefully fix your hair in the mirror — you might try to get as close to the mirror as you can. A wall-mounted unit is conducive to this movement, as you can slip your feet under it to get your body closer. Conversely, a unit that sits on the floor will block your feet from perhaps getting as close as you'd like. Browse the different types of wall-mounted vanities at your local bathroom supply store.
