What is a wall-hung vanity?
As the name suggests, wall-hung vanity, also called wall-mounted or floating vanity, can be mounted to walls and don't touch the floor.
Since they have space under, they often come with drawers or doors and shelving that come in various configurations, styles, and sizes. You can also leave open space beneath them, allowing you to use it for other purposes.
Advantages of wall-hung vanities
If wall-hung vanity is alien to you and you are cat on the wall to decide upon this type, then read the perks it offers.
- Make your bathroom look bigger with wall vanities
How about breathing fresh air into bathrooms? When you wall-hang your vanity, they easily create the illusion of more space because the vanity is fixed above the floor, which gives a floating feel.
As the space beneath is empty, it makes your bathroom feel more open. If you have a small bathroom, use this trick of having a wall vanity and make it look bigger.
- Easier to clean
Since these vanities don't touch the floor, there’s enough space left to place things as part of storing. But anyway, you can clean the underneath of the vanity without any hindrance. Either you are planning to sweep or mop the space, you can go ahead without worrying about any hard-to-reach spots.
- This is a space-saving model
Since we mount the vanity on the wall, it occupies less space and gives you more room to move around. So, you can install them in corners or tight areas and won’t overwhelm the space.
- It's protected from wet floors
The cabinets won't touch the floor since they are raised above the bathroom floor. This means you have zero tension about any cabinets becoming damaged due to the water on your bathroom floor.
Less moisture exposure helps extend the life of your wall-hung vanity, too.

They may appear simple but know they will never go out of style or trend. So, it will come a long way, and there's no need to shred cash in upgrading your bathroom vanity often.
Different Styles of Wall-Hung Vanities
You can find wall-hung vanities in three different styles at Herabathware.
- Curved edge wall-hung vanity
- Fluted wall-hung vanity
- Beveled edge wall-hung vanity
Each type carries a unique vibe and maintains a sleek, floating look that makes wall-hung models so popular.
1. Curved-edge wall-hung vanity
As the name reads, this type has smooth, rounded edges that create a softer and more organic look. The rounded edges keep things looking classy and chill, too.
It's kid-friendly. Because if you have kids running around, you can't take chances on bumping heads or other body parts on the sharp edges. So, this ticks the safety feature.
Not to mention, the curves give the vanity a more airy and flowy feel, and the design is evergreen. This means you don't side-eye it in a few years. Who doesn't want a forever-fresh energy flowing from a vanity?
It favors us in terms of maintenance, too. No tricky corners means you just need to wipe it down, and you are good to go.
Take a quick look at the curved-edge wall-hung vanity collections here.
2. Fluted wall-hung vanity
Go for this style if you are dying to show your uniqueness in your wall-hung vanity. Fluted wall-hung means you get textured, vertical groove design often inspired by architectural fluted columns. This design isn't just a vibe, but it's "the vibe" and makes you feel like you bought something out of a Pinterest board.
Depending on your aesthetic preference, you get options that include straight-edged or curved-look designs.
You can choose from a fluted wall-hung vanity with one or two sinks and pick from various sizes and finishes based on what works for you.
At Herabathware, you also get the option for an open-shelf design to keep frequently used items within reach.
This fluted detail adds depth and character visually. So, if you want a chic, luxurious look, you won't complain about anything with type.
3. Beveled edge wall-hung vanity
A beveled edge wall-hung vanity is a floating bathroom vanity with edges that are cut at an angle rather than straight or flat. This means it has an inclined edge that's not at 90 degrees.
So, this type is all about sleek craftsmanship and offers a more refined vibe to the bathroom.
This design creates a feeling of spaciousness and is perfect for smaller bathrooms or those aiming for a minimalist vibe. In addition, this type of angled edge helps reduce the risk of sharp corners, and this is not just kid-friendly but also a practical addition to a family bathroom.
You can find all wall-hung vanities collections available made of high-quality materials and finishes at Herbathware.
What should you remember while shopping for a wall-hung vanity for your bathroom?
Size is everything
Nobody just invests in a wall-hung bathroom vanity and then complains that it doesn't fit your space. Measure your space carefully to make sure the vanity isn’t too big or too small. It should fit comfortably without overwhelming the room or feeling like an afterthought.
At Herabathware, we offer standard wall-hung vanities sizes that range from 600mm, 750mm, 900mm, 1200mm, 1500mm, and 1800mm. So, you can find a size that almost fits any bathroom.
Measuring the space also gives you an idea of whether you can accommodate a single sink or if you have a chance for a double sink vanity.
As cliche as it sounds, check the style
Once the size is sorted, you should explore the different styles and colors for the vanity.
We know you won't skip this point! But do confirm if the styles would gel up with the bathroom style.
At Herabathware, three categories sum up the wall-hung vanity collections: curved edge wall-hung vanity, fluted wall-hung vanity, and beveled edge wall-hung vanity. All these vanities are available in different sizes, are made of high-quality materials, and are worth every penny spent.
Plus, the vanities boast a variety of finishes, including glossy, concrete, and timber, that promise versatility to match any bathroom decor.
Storage is another important feature to check
The foremost thing is to decide on what you want to store in your vanity. If you have always dealt with a cluttered bathroom with your essentials spread everywhere, you can't overlook storage.
Check if the vanity features cabinets, drawers or a mix of both. The hidden compartment ties the overall look but complements you with space to store things. If you get irritated with slamming doors, go for soft-close drawers.
What materials are best for wall-hung vanity?
We recommend you opt for something durable and moisture-resistant. Vanities made of solid surface or stone resin can only handle the humidity of a bathroom without warping or peeling. On the other hand, timber material is all about a warm, natural vibe, considering the vanity is properly sealed.
Choose the sink type.
- Integrated type has the sink and countertop as one piece, giving a minimalistic and streamlined look.
- Undermount sink is installed beneath the countertop while leaving the edges of the counter exposed.
- A bowl-like sink, which is trending, sits on top of the countertop.
Other features to look at are:
Plumbing is another factor that you shouldn't overlook. Ensure the vanity works with your existing setup, or be prepared to adjust things.
And don’t overlook practical touches such as integrated LED lighting for much-needed convenience or materials that are easy to clean and maintain.
