What's the practical difference between a wall-hung and a floor-standing wood vanity, and which should I pick?

Wall-hung units float off the floor so they make a small bathroom feel bigger and make cleaning the floor easy. Floor-standing units sit on the floor and are often better if you want extra internal capacity or don't have a strong stud wall for a carrier. For a cloakroom, a 400-500mm wall-hung unit gives a neat, space-saving fit; for a family bathroom, an 800-900mm floor-standing or wall-hung unit offers more storage and a larger basin. If you're unsure about wall strength, a freestanding Regis Forma or Artis unit is a safe, sturdy choice.

Are wood-finish units suitable for a humid bathroom or near a shower?

Yes, these units are made from high-quality MDF that's fully rigid and moisture resistant, so they tolerate normal bathroom humidity better than plain wood. You still want good ventilation and to wipe away standing water or splash marks to protect edges and finishes. For a wet area near a shower, pick a wall-hung unit so water won't pool at the base, and choose a darker oak or walnut finish if you want a forgiving look for water marks.

How do I choose the right width and depth for my vanity?

Look at the available width bands first, there are options from 250-499mm up to 1200-1499mm, with popular sizes at 500, 600, 800 and 900mm, and depths commonly range from about 200-599mm. For a tight cloakroom, a 400-500mm unit with 200-300mm depth keeps clearance for the door and WC; for a main bathroom, a 600-900mm unit with 400-500mm depth gives comfortable basin space and usable storage. Always measure wall-to-opposite-wall and leave room for taps and door swing; a 600mm wall-hung basin unit is a common middle ground if you want versatility.

What's the difference between countertop vanity units, vanity units and cloakroom basin units?

Countertop vanity units are designed for a basin to sit on top of the worktop, giving you styling flexibility and often a larger surface area. Vanity units usually have an integrated basin or basin and cabinet designed as a single piece, which hides plumbing and is very space-efficient. Cloakroom basin units are the compact versions, typically 400-500mm wide, made to fit small spaces while still offering a basin and some storage.

How do I pick a wood finish and handle style that will suit my bathroom and be easy to live with?

Oak finishes dominate the range, while walnut (about 50) and grey wood (around 15) offer richer or cooler tones respectively, so match tone to the mood you want, light oak for a spa feel, walnut for warmth. Fluted fronts add texture and a contemporary look but can collect dust in the grooves, whereas smooth fronts are easier to wipe down. Handle choices such as brushed brass or black give different accents; a bleached oak unit with brushed brass handles creates a warm, elegant contrast that marries well with stone or matt tiles.
