WILMINGTON, NC - Cabinet manufacturer MarKraft is set to capitalize on the trend of bathroom vanities made to look like furniture with three new vanity designs.

“It gives a different look for the bathroom rather than your standard cabinet,” said Cee Edwards, president of Markraft Cabinets. “I think people like it because it’s not your typical vanity.”

The first type has a traditional look with four legs that run from the countertop to the floor beneath the sink equipped with panel doors for storage. The second type is an in-between vanity that can have pedestal legs or furniture feet. And the third type is a wall-hung vanity where the sink and mirror are mounted to the wall without any legs or base.

“We’re getting some empty nesters who are downsizing the home, but want something nice,” said Edwards. “They want when people go into the guest bathroom or powder room, for it to look different.”
