Modern bathroom vanities are the number one type of vanity purchased today. Most have switched out their traditional looking vanity and remodeled their bathroom to a new “modern” look. Whether it be European inspired or Italian inspired they have become very popular in the U.S. Some are wall-mounted while others sit on the floor. Depending on the size and structure of the bathroom one would probably work better than the other.

It may be a difficult decision choosing between modern bathroom vanities that have countertops and those that don’t. If you are looking into purchasing a vanity that does not have a countertop, one that is just wood, be sure that the wood has a protective seal to guard against water damage which may cause fading in the finish or may even begin to peal.

With modern bathroom vanities the best way to go is with a protective countertop. Not only are countertops a beautiful addition to a vanity but are also very easy to clean. A few different countertops will be mentioned in this article.
