PostHeaderIcon Bathroom Vanity Countertop

Bathroom_CabinetBathroom is a place to relax and soothe your jagged nerves. If the bathroom vanity countertop is cluttered with make up, toiletries, brushes and other grooming products, the bathrooms will look far from relaxing or soothing. To give the bathroom an organized look, these items have to go somewhere. This immediately brings to mind, bathroom vanity cabinets.
Bathroom cabinets come broadly under two categories. They are Laminate and wood.

Another classification of cabinets is: — Stock, Semi- Custom, Custom.
Stock cabinets are mass-produced, semi-custom are stock cabinets that can be altered to fit the space requirements and custom cabinets are built to individual specifications. These terms refer to production methods and in no way to quality types.

Stock is the most popular cabinetry. They are readily available. Delivery time is usually a week to 10 days. The disadvantage with stock cabinets is that there are limited shapes, sizes, and style available. Also they may not properly fit in the space.

Semi custom is the second most popular cabinet type. They offer a wider range of style, colors, finish, sizes etc. They are basically stock cabinets whose certain dimensions can be changed. Their draw back is that the delivery time is long. It may take a month or longer. They are usually more expensive than stock.
Custom is the built to order cabinetry. They offer the widest range and options are much greater. They take the longest delivery time and are most expensive of the three options. They are made on nonreturnable basis. Kraft- maid is a leading manufacturer of custom cabinets.
