Double Vanity

A double vanity provides two separate sink stations in a single cabinet unit, essential in shared primary bathrooms. Morning routines flow smoothly when partners have dedicated space, storage, and mirrors rather than competing for a single sink. Double vanities range from 60 to 84 inches or longer. The investment in space and plumbing pays dividends in daily convenience and resale value—double vanities are expected in primary bathrooms.
