Indispensable attribute of each apartment are washbasins for the bathroom. Without them, it is difficult to imagine a restroom, even the smallest, as they are not only a practical item, but also a great accessory. Recently, modern designers have come up with a lot of varieties of such bathroom details, so choosing something unique for yourself, and at the same time ideally suited in size and shape, is as easy as shelling pears. So, now we will look at what are the bathroom washbasins and which one is best to give preference to.
Similar household items are divided into 4 main categories. Among them there is a tulip washbasin, a bowl washbasin, a console sink and a built-in one. In most apartments and houses, the “tulip” model is mounted - this is a sink that is located on a leg. It can have different options and colors. Even the largest "tulip" models take up a minimum of free space, and all pipes are hidden under its ceramic leg.
Console washbasins for the bathroom are attached to the wall with brackets. Most often, under the sink itself there is a wide cabinet, inwhich is convenient to store towels, personal hygiene items. Due to the fact that the console washbasin assumes the presence of a furniture unit, it takes up a lot of free space, so it is often installed in private homes where the bathroom is large.
Bathroom washbasins, made in the form of a bowl, are always installed on a countertop or cabinet. The size and height of these sinks vary, so you can choose the options that are ideal for your home. Such a washbasin has the shape of a bowl, so creative people often choose it for decorating a bathroom. Having a rich imagination, such a sink can be supplemented with a pen, decorated or encrusted using decoupage technique.
Built-in sinks are one of the most compact bathroom solutions. The washbasin itself is shallow, as it is placed, as it were, inside the countertop. Drawers or shelves can be placed under this structure. The countertop that surrounds the washbasin is used as a table for personal hygiene items.
Whichever model you choose, the size of your bathroom washbasin plays a key role. Of course, some options are focused on a compact arrangement, others require a large footage. But if it is the console sink that fits perfectly into your interior, but the bathroom is small, then order such a model, but focus on small dimensions.
When buying plumbing, we also pay attention tothe quality of the material from which it is made. Most often, porcelain and faience washbasins for the bathroom are produced. The prices for the first ones are slightly higher, but at the same time the material is of high quality, can last for decades, and is not toxic. Faience models are characterized by high porosity, where dirt often accumulates, and they cost an order of magnitude cheaper. In general, the pricing policy for washbasins depends on the manufacturer, material, workmanship and model, and starts from 1000 rubles.
