Before starting a good mental outlook, the cleanliness and reasonable collocation of the bathroom can help us start to groom ourselves more effectively. If we walk into the bathroom and find that the washbasin is full of cosmetics, and the bathroom floor is full of dirty clothes in the bathtub , Shampoo and shower gel are hidden in a corner and cannot be found, which will greatly affect our mood of combing ourselves. So we need the existence of a cabinet. Then there are various bathroom cabinet on the market, which can help us organize the bathroom more effectively, and how should we choose?
First of all, the material of the bathroom cabinet is definitely a necessary prerequisite for our choice to start. Different materials will have different effects in terms of beauty and quality.
Nowadays, there are many kinds of materials for bathroom cabinet. At present, the materials of mainstream bathroom cabinets are solid wood, PVC and stainless steel. The composite board is the lowest cost-effective, because the composite board is pressed from wood scraps, the moisture resistance is relatively poor, and it is easy to mold, deform and peel in the humid air for a long time.
The second is PVC sheet, which has good waterproof performance, but due to the large amount of plastic components in PVC sheet, its environmental protection and high temperature resistance are relatively weak. Solid wood as the base material depends on the surface treatment process of the wood. Since wood is a natural material, it is very environmentally friendly. The surface has a wood lacquer surface to resist the invasion of temperature, humidity and ultraviolet rays, and the substrate will not crack and deform after being used in the bathroom for a long time.
In general, the material of the cabinet is basically solid wood. Many people think that solid wood furniture is susceptible to moisture and rot. This is not the case. Now many high-grade solid woods such as oak have high moisture resistance. The stability of solid wood bathroom cabinets mainly depends on the change of the moisture content of the wood. Although the price of solid wood panels is slightly more expensive than others, considering the difference in durability, it is recommended that you choose solid wood as the main material of the bathroom cabinet.
Secondly, a practical and beautiful basin will directly affect the beauty of the entire bathroom. Some inferior basins will have stains that cannot be cleaned after long-term use, and may even crack.
Basin material
Compared with bathroom cabinets, there are relatively few common basin materials.
When buying bathroom cabinets, if the budget is sufficient, it is recommended to choose marble countertops and artificial marble countertops. If you choose a ceramic countertop, you also need to refer to the water absorption rate. The lower the water absorption rate, the less easy it is for water to penetrate the countertop, and the more durable it is.
After the selection of the basin material, the type of basin should also be understood and selected. Different types will have different styles, and the level of aesthetics will be uneven, and different types will also lead to different cleaning methods for the basin. Choose A good type of basin can achieve the effect of being beautiful and easy to clean.
Basin type
The more common ones are over-counter basins, under-counter basins, semi-recessed basins, and one-piece basins. The countertop basins have good aesthetics and various styles, including round, oval, square and special-shaped. However, it is not easy to clean, and there are often dead spots. The place where the basin and the countertop are in contact are glued together. If the glue used is not good, it will become mildew for a long time.
Under counter basins are less selective than counter top basins. Because it is blocked under the countertop, the aesthetics is affected. However, it is easy to clean, and it is usually easy to wipe with a rag to get rid of water stains. Semi-insert basins are often used in narrower bathrooms and are only selected when the size is not sufficient. The shape of the semi-inserted basin is mostly square and round, because of its special craftsmanship, the aesthetics are also limited.
One-piece basins are more popular now. Make the basin as large as possible and cover the entire bathroom counter surface. This type of basin can eliminate dead corners to the greatest extent, facilitate the sanitation and cleaning of the bathroom, and have a high appearance. Everyone likes to wash their hair on the basin, but some basins are too shallow, and it is often more troublesome to wash.
