A bathroom cabinet is a cabinet in a bathroom, most often used to store hygiene products, toiletries, and sometimes also medications such that it works as an improvised medicine cabinet. There are two main types of bathroom cabinets: vanity cabinets which are usually placed under sinks and mirror cabinets which are usually placed over sinks or above toilets. Bathroom cabinets often either have an integrated electrical socket or are placed close to one so that appliances such as an electric shaver or hairdryer can be used. Bathroom cabinets have become much more technologically advanced with retailers today offering features like Bluetooth audio, mood lighting, and anti-fog technology.
Vanity cabinet
Vanity cabinets are cabinets located under sinks and these are usually used to store larger items such as spare soap bottles or towels.
Mirror cabinet
Mirror cabinets are cabinets located over sinks or above toilets and are so named because the cabinet door has a mirror on it. Mirror cabinets are usually used to store smaller items such as spare toothpaste or medicine. Many mirror cabinets are combined with a lamp that illuminates the mirror and thereby (especially in small bathrooms) also the room.
