The Agile Upgrade: The 40-Inch Bathroom Vanity
Split the difference between compact and mid-size with a 40-inch bathroom vanity. You’ll gain wider drawers, better counter landing zones, and improved flow — especially where 36 inches feels tight and 48 inches crowds the plan.
Best-Use Scenarios
- Guest baths that need extra storage without a remodel.
- Narrow rooms where every inch of walking space matters.
- Single-sink layouts that benefit from more set-down area.
Freestanding vs. Floating
Compare freestanding 40-inch vanities for classic storage versus floating 40-inch vanities that make small baths feel bigger.
Features & Finishes
Look for integrated tops, soft-close drawers, and adjustable shelves. Popular finishes include matte white, soft gray, and natural oak; quartz counters provide durable, easy-clean surfaces.
Planning Tips
Maintain 30 inches of front clearance. Center plumbing to preserve drawer interiors and consider a recessed medicine cabinet to keep counters pristine.
