Different materials are used in the production of sinks with a nightstand. As for the washbasins, they in turn are made more often of faience, porcelain, majolica, metal, less often of stone and glass. These products in this case are made overhead.

The cabinet itself can be made of another material. Let's consider each of them in more detail.

Mostly there are exactly such cabinets, as they are environmentally friendly and have a high index of durability. For resistance to moisture and durability, they are necessarily laminated, or impregnated with varnish.

This is a good and practical option for a cabinet in the bathroom. Such a material will not be afraid of either moisture or temperature fluctuations. The only thing is that it is very demanding to gentle care, as because of its low durability, scratches and small cracks can form.

In this case, it is possible to combine glass with the above materials. Glass, for example, can be inserts, shelves, or cabinet doors. Such items look very original.

All manufacturers in the manufacture of furniture adhere to standard sizes. This also applies to bathroom cabinets. Their width varies from 30 to 150 centimeters, and the depth is 34-55 cm. The height of the product is usually not below 80 cm, the limit of this value - 98 cm.

Of course, the dimensions of nightstands with sinks can be completely different format. Such products are easily made individually, according to the specified measures of the client. The customer, in turn, must take a very careful approach to this case. First, clearly indicate the place where the furniture will be installed. Secondly, decide in advance on the form and size of the sink. And thirdly, to measure all the parameters of the future product to get the desired result.

The advantage of these devices is that they do not take up space on the floor and thus visually expand the space, it also facilitates cleaning the room.

The ideal option for a small bathroom. These nightstands take up a minimum of useful space, not cluttering the space. However, they are roomy enough and even allow you to hide unnecessary communications.

The only disadvantage of corner models is the complexity of installation. When installing such a cabinet requires precision and accuracy - the connection angle of the bathroom walls should be ninety degrees without deviations, otherwise the equipment simply will not stand correctly and will have to correct the unevenness.

Without any doubt mirror in the bathroom is simply necessary, And if it comes with the furniture, it is a big plus that saves a lot of money. Modern "sinks" have an attractive appearance and are not inferior to other models of sinks with a pedestal.

It is very practical if the cabinet with a sink has a laundry basket. It can be both built-in and installed in a separate compartment. Such a solution is very advantageous for those who do not want to clutter the space with unnecessary things.

Imported models, of course, are attracted by their status, but the range and most importantly the quality of domestic samples is far behind. This is due to the fact that Many our manufacturers use only the best materials, accessories and components of well-known German, Italian and Finnish brands. And also work on high-class modern equipment. However, in spite of this, the cost of production is much lower than abroad.

When buying a bathroom cabinet with a washbasin, do not neglect the following recommendations:

• The perfect appearance of the product - a guarantee of durability, so before buying make sure there are no leaks, dents, cracks and chips;
• Choose such devices, the fittings and accessories of which are made of metal, and preferably chrome, but not plastic, otherwise you will be disappointed after a year;
• A drawer should be easy to use. The more it will have auxiliary components, the better;
• And of course, do not forget that the design and construction of the cabinet with a sink correspond to the overall design of the bathroom.

It would seem that you bought the furniture and put it - no complications, but even here there are nuances that should not be bypassed.

1. The first thing to do is to think in advance about the place for the future purchase, to take out the water and sewage pipes. In the future, this will help to position the plumbing without problems.
2. Making measurements and determining the area under the cabinet, make sure that the surrounding space will not interfere with the opening of the flaps or doors of the product.
3. If the purchased equipment is disassembled and you are going to install it yourself, then take care to have the necessary tools. Usually, apart from screwdrivers, an adjustable wrench, FUM tape and sealant, you will not need anything else. But if you bought the faucet for the sink separately, then immediately buy a siphon and an inlet for hot and cold water.
4. For the assembly of the cabinet under the sink, you will be provided with instructions, which will not be difficult to figure out. However, during assembly, make sure that the screws screwed in securely, so that later you do not have to do double work.
5. It is better to install the faucet with hoses before placing the sink on a permanent place. The siphon can be handled the same way.
6. Turn off the water supply before directly installing the equipment.
7. If the furniture is attached to the wall for reliability and stability, prepare in advance the holes in those places where the bolts will be screwed in.
8. When all the work is done and the water supply and sewage is connected, all that remains is to check the performance of all components.
