Dealing with the interior of the bathroom, it is necessary to pay equally close attention to both the outside of the furnishings and their "stuffing". Still, the atmosphere prevailing in this room is not the most harmless. Many aggressive factors (humidity, water, temperature changes, household chemicals) constantly affect bathroom furniture. The table top is no exception. It falls into contact with toothpaste. Water or various cosmetics often appear on the surface. Sometimes, hair dye can be accidentally found there.
Based on all the difficulties that this piece of furniture faces, it is necessary to select high-quality samples that can "save face" under any circumstances.
The bathroom countertop can be made from a variety of materials. There are even wooden surfaces. They certainly look amazing. But here special processing of wood is required so that the latter does not suffer much from moisture.
But most often the bathroom countertop is made of stone. Expensive models are made fromnatural, natural raw materials. Granite provides the product with increased strength. Marble attracts with its unique pattern and exquisite color shades. Quartz and onyx surfaces look no less worthy.
Consumers are not deterred by the high price of samples for sale. She is completely justified. In addition, these products will serve their owner for more than one year. And yes, they are easy to take care of. In most cases, you will only need to walk over the stone with a napkin, wiping off moisture. You can safely use chemical detergents. Only those containing abrasive substances are not recommended. A countertop in a bathroom of this category can suffer serious damage from getting a colored dye on it. This is explained by the natural porosity of the material, which, like a sponge, absorbs paint. It is not easy to get rid of such a stain on reputation in the future.
Mentioned shortcoming deprived of products made of artificial stone. Its dense structure guarantees a high "indestructibility" of the surface of the product. Externally, the countertop in the bathroom from such raw materials is almost indistinguishable from samples made of natural stone. But here its cost is slightly lower.
Glass models with cast-in shells adapt well to aggressive humid environments. They are not afraid to come into contact with chemicals, they are not afraid of splashing water. The only thing to keep in mind when buying such a product is the fragility of the material. Certainly,the countertop in the bathroom is made of special glass, but even it is several times inferior in strength to stone. Therefore, we treat the surface more carefully. Housewives may still not like the need to periodically get rid of stains that remain on the surface after moisture dries. If this is not done, the glass top will quickly become unkempt.
Whichever model you choose, strictly follow the prescribed care instructions so that this piece of furniture retains its “fresh” appearance for many years.
