Very poor quality for the price
Miters are all cracked out of the box, splitting at most seams, back panel is cracked. Description says solid wood but it’s mostly MDF with some plywood in places where they had to fasten stuff. Finish on sink is poor and becomes transparent towards bottom. The worst is the sink being glued on noticeably out of level. For reference the cabinet is installed level but look how out the sink is from it. This would be okay for maybe $150 but not $400, especially considering how small it is.

Niche bathroom vanity with poor quality
I was initially content with the product. It fits well in my tiny bathroom. However, after six-month of use, I realized that the quality is quite poor. The material in the cabinet is not water-proof and will start breaking down after a period of use.

We had a very limited space to fit a vanity and this one has worked out great. It has a decent amount of storage and looks great. It isn't a very long sink so in hindsight i wish we'd gotten a smaller faucet because if you're not careful you can splash water outside the sink when you're washing your hands. But for the space we have this was a great purchase and it's been holding up well.

Perfect for tight space
Had a homeowner who wanted to add a half bath to floor plan and we didn’t have much room to work with, so this was perfect size. Materials are good, especially for the price. Also gives some storage where a pedestal sink does not.

Great sink for a small space.
We have a 5’5” x 6’5” bathroom and needed to find a small, but stylish sink. This works great! Our p-trap was too big so we just cut out the drawer and it fit perfectly. One downfall is there is no matching backsplash to order. Luckily the sink is deep enough to wash my hands without splashing water everywhere.

Perfect vanity for a small space!
This Home Decorators Collection vanity is the perfect size for a small bathroom! It's built well and looks great! The sink is also well made. The dove gray is a nice, soft gray that could go with any color scheme. So far, we love it!

Too small, nice if that’s what is required
We appreciate the space for vanities behind the basin, however the basin is too small for activities such as face washing. Would recommend a larger basin if your space can accommodate it. Lovely for a powder room where handwashing is the primary need.

great for small bathrooms, with some caveats
We have a tiny bathroom that needed a narrow vanity. The depth between the door and the wall is just under 16 inches, so the standard single vanity would not fit. We had a narrow vanity with a sink basin that extended over it, but even that was too big for the space as you could not enter without bumping into the sink. This vanity is perfect and will give you extra space to move around your small bathroom, but there are some drawbacks. The vanity is small, therefore the sink is too. Its fine for handwashing and brushing your teeth, but washing your face or shaving might be messy. Do that in the shower if you can. The soft close cabinet and small drawer give a little extra storage, but be prepared to consolidate your bathroom items and get creative with storage solutions.

Sink coating peeled all along the lower part of the sink closest area to the vanity
Purchased this vanity/sink online July 24, 2020 for a small addition bathroom used for guests. While in that bathroom last week I noticed the glossy coating of the ceramic sink part of the vanity had peeled leaving part of the sink flat while the rest is glossy ceramic white on the sink itself. Tried to call Home Depot where I picked up the order after it was ordered online, got hung up on twice. Now I'm calling the fabricator and I'm sitting on hold for the last 15 minutes.
I have no idea what can be done to fix this issue, but after paying a little over $244 I'm completely upset. Once my Home Depot card is paid off, I'm cancelling it.

I have a tiny bathroom, hence why I ordered this and it was a good price at around $230. After installing it I see a piece of paper that says the product emits formaldehyde! What in the world? If I would have known this beforehand I would not expose my family to these dangers. Pretty upset with that. Also when you wash your face with this vanity water gets all over the vanity causing water damage and your floor to get soaking wet.

Perfect little sink made the bathroom!!!
We are so happy with this purchase. The sink/vanity is adorable and it’s just the size we needed. We were surprised by the vanity’s quality. It’s SOLID! And we are so pleased. The Dove grey color is soft and and great color for a bathroom.

If you're looking for a reasonably priced vanity with a ceramic sink for a tight space and/or a small powder room, this will work. But the sink basin is very narrow and could be an issue with water splashing.
Although small, there is some storage including a drawer. Glad to see it has leveling feet on the legs which were definitely needed for our install. Soft close hinges are a nice touch.
Overall, we're happy with the look and it fits well in our 1861 farmhouse.

Horrible
For the amount of money spent on this item it’s not worth the head ache. I purchased this item April 26th and it was finally delivered May 18th. Not even a month of having it and the wood is warping the And the paint Is chipping. I purchased this for a small bathroom because of the storage located on the bottom but now it’s a total loss. Brand new bathroom and crap vanity that needs to be replaced don’t waste your time or money on this trash what a shame.

Cute little sink
We were replacing a very small wall-mounted sink that a toddler pulled off the wall, and the selection was limited. This is perfect for the spot - great height and feels sturdy enough to survive kids. The basin is shallow, like other reviewers said, but we do not have water splashing outside of the sink (we did turn the water down a bit at the wall). We paired the dove gray vanity with the Ferris Single Hole Single-Handle Bathroom Faucet in Polished Chrome. The size of that faucet was great, but I would not recommend the polished chrome, because it constantly shows water stains.

I installed this in my bath and paired it with the "Kohler July Single Hole Single Handle Low Arc Bathroom Faucet in Polished Chrome". I have tight bathroom and I really like how this created extra standing room. I hired someone to install it but it seemed fairly easy. He had to cut out the back panel quite a bit to allow for the P trap to fit and the P trap ends up taking up most of the interior space but thats ok. it keeps it hidden that way. There are leveling glides on the feet which i needed to use, thankfully included. I caulked along the back where it meets the wall too. i noticed the paint on the cabinet portion got onto the porcelain sink portion, but nothing you couldnt get off with some spirits or a razer. love it oveall.

Fits perfectly in our very small bathroom. I was worried when I unpacked it that the bowl would be too small to wash hands without water getting everywhere ... but after we got it hooked up I tried it and it works beautifully, no water splashes out of the bowl at all!
Now that the bulky old sink in the bathroom is replaced with this new sleek one, our tiny bathroom feels much less crowded. (And it's really cute!). Oh and the soft close door is fantastic. The whole thing arrived fully assembled and all we had to do was unpack it and call a plumber to attach it (we tried but we already knew that plumbing is not our forte)

It's made of some sort of MDF material and laminate finish, so it's not high end, but I found it to be reasonably solid and well assembled. I wasn't aware of anything this small until I was in England and saw a similar style and then came home to find one online and pick it up at the store. I hired a plumber to do the work and it looks and works fantastic.

great for tiny bathrooms!
I got this to replace a pedestal sink. I wanted a vanity for the storage in my one and only teeny 5x10 bathroom. Pleased with it, looks great, only drawback is the shallow distance from the faucet to the front edge of the sink. I can’t splash my face while washing without making a water mess, so using washcloths now. Would be great for a 2d washroom.
