Purchasing bathroom furniture - what to consider
We all have our own idea of what constitutes “good” bathroom furniture. For some, it's more about appearance and for others it's practicality. However, most agree that they should all be long-lasting and convenient. What characterises modern bathroom furniture:
- Functionality
- Comfort
- Appearance
- Longevity
Functionality
The purpose of bathroom furniture is clear: it serves as storage for all of the things we need in the bathroom. This could be towels, cosmetic products, medication, a hairdryer and more. Simply storing these away makes the furniture functional. Many things are needed in the washing area, which is why mirror cabinets and washbasin vanity units are some of the most popular bathroom furniture.
Comfort
The comfort of bathroom furniture can be assessed based on different criteria. This includes easy-clean materials such as furniture with a glass front. Or ease-of-use such as easy-open doors and drawers. Laundry baskets also increase comfort as well as mirror cabinets with bluetooth function.
Appearance
The appearance of modern bathroom furniture is determined by the design on the one hand and the materials used on the other. A highly polished painted surface looks completely different to furniture with real wood veneer on the front. Whether a particular style looks good or not is in the eye of the beholder. It's up to you to decide how your bathroom furniture should look.
Longevity
The lifespan of bathroom furniture depends on several factors. As with all things, it is of course a question of proper treatment by its users. The materials used also play an important role. Perhaps even more important is how the furniture has been produced. For example, whether the corners of plywood or MDF panels are sufficiently sealed to prevent any swelling.
