Featured Image @malcomsimmons from Instagram – SKUs: KS4462NX, KVPB30MB7 The bathroom vanity is an essential design piece in every bathroom. The vanity holds the sink and offers counter space and storage for your toiletries and other needs. Bathroom vanities often incorporate a console sink, which is a cross between a pedestal sink and a wall-mounted sink. Console sinks can be supported by two or four legs. The beauty of a console sink is that it offers a countertop area and storage area that you won’t get with a pedestal sink. In some cases, it can also offer wheelchair accessibility. The decision of which design to incorporate in your bathroom is one of personal preference and also where you want your vanity located in your bathroom. Although there isn’t one option that is better than the other, here are some things to consider when deciding between a two-leg or four-leg bathroom vanity.

Where Do You Want the Bathroom Vanity Located?

The most obvious benefit of having a four-leg bathroom vanity versus one with two legs is it doesn’t have to be mounted to the wall. It can be freestanding.

However, even if the bathroom vanity is freestanding on four legs, that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to move it anywhere you want. There is still the plumbing to contend with, which typically gets stubbed out of a wall.

On the other hand, a two-leg bathroom vanity must always be up against a wall because it needs to be mounted to a wall for support.

How Do You Install a Bathroom Vanity?

Since a two-legged bathroom vanity needs to be mounted to a wall for support, installing this kind of vanity can be more labor-intensive. You’ll have to drill into your bathroom wall and secure the sink with lag screws. It’s also important to use a level to make sure you install the sink evenly.

Two-leg vanities require brackets to support the sink when it is mounted to the wall. Support brackets are optional in four-leg bathroom vanities because the additional legs offer support.

Bathroom vanities with four legs are usually easier to install than two-leg vanities, especially if it isn’t going to be mounted to a wall.
