Bathroom Vanity Units in Tunisia: How to Choose (Sizes & Prices 2026)
Introduction
Once the tiling is done, the vanity unit sets the tone: it is the centerpiece that stores, dresses the wall and links the floor to the tap. Choosing it well — size, material, basin type — completely changes the look of the room. This guide helps you choose the right bathroom vanity unit in Tunisia, with typical prices and our available models.
What Is a Bathroom Vanity Unit?
For us, a "vanity unit" is a complete set, not just the cabinet. It combines three elements:
- The cabinet (with drawers and/or open niches for storage);
- The basin (integrated into the top or sitting on it);
- The matching mirror.
That is what sets a vanity apart from a plain basin: you get the storage, the top and the mirror all at once, coordinated.
Which Size: 60 or 80 cm?
Width is the first criterion, as it depends on your available wall.
| Your space | Recommended size | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Small bathroom, WC with basin | 60 cm | Compact, keeps circulation while adding a drawer |
| Standard or family bathroom | 80 cm | More storage and a wider, comfortable top |
Always allow at least 60 cm of clearance in front of the unit to open drawers and move around.
Wall-hung or Floor-standing?
All our units are wall-hung (fixed to the wall, off the floor). This has real advantages in Tunisia:
- Easy cleaning: you can mop under the unit, water doesn't sit against the wood;
- Sense of space: the tiled floor stays visible, the room looks bigger;
- Height of your choice: fix the unit at the height that suits you.
In return, a wall-hung unit needs a solid wall and careful fixing — our sets ship with the right screws.
Which Material? Humidity Resistance First
A bathroom is humid: the cabinet material matters most of all.
| Material | Water resistance | Ideal for |
|---|---|---|
| Waterproof PVC | Excellent | Very humid bathrooms, budget |
| Melamine MDF | Good | Daily use, modern wood look |
| Stoneware top | Excellent | High-end finish, durability |
Waterproof PVC shrugs off water and stays affordable; melamine MDF gives a nice wood look and good everyday durability; a stoneware top brings a premium, very resistant finish.
Integrated or Countertop Basin?
- Integrated basin top: the basin and top are one piece of ceramic. Smooth surface, easy cleaning, no joint to scrub. The most practical choice.
- Countertop basin: a bowl placed on the top (for example our Bari model with a "Bol Square" basin). Very decorative, a focal point, but it needs a tall mixer tap.
Which Vanity for Your Bathroom?
| Your situation | Recommended unit | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Small room, controlled budget | 60 cm waterproof PVC unit | Compact, waterproof, best price |
| Family bathroom | 80 cm unit with niches | Maximum storage, wide top |
| Wanting a modern wood look | 80 cm melamine MDF unit | Warmth of wood, everyday durability |
| Looking for a premium finish | 80 cm stoneware top + basin | Fine materials, designer basin |
Matching Vanity and Tiles
Choose the vanity to suit the tiles already laid. A few simple cues:
- Light tiles / white faience → a light-wood unit warms the whole;
- Dark or marble-effect tiles → a white or light-wood unit creates contrast;
- Small, heavily tiled room → wall-hung unit to keep the floor clear.

Maintenance: Making Your Vanity Last
- Wipe water splashes off the cabinet, especially around handles and edges;
- Ventilate the bathroom after showering to clear humidity;
- Clean the ceramic basin with a mild, non-abrasive product;
- Check the silicone joint between the top and the wall once a year.
Tips for Choosing Well
- Measure the wall first — available width and free height;
- Pick the material for the humidity — waterproof PVC if the room is very damp;
- Count your storage — drawers to store, niches to display;
- Coordinate with the tiles and the tap;
- Check the wall is load-bearing for a wall-hung unit.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a bathroom vanity unit cost in Tunisia?
A complete set (unit + basin + mirror) starts at 599 TND for a 60 cm and goes up to around 920 TND for a high-end 80 cm with a stoneware top. The price depends on the size, material and basin type.
60 or 80 cm vanity: which should I choose?
The 60 cm suits small bathrooms and WCs with a basin. The 80 cm is recommended for a standard or family bathroom: more storage and a more comfortable top.
Which material resists humidity best?
Waterproof PVC is the most water-resistant and stays economical. Melamine MDF gives a nice wood look with good everyday durability. In all cases, ventilate the room after showering.
Are the mirror and basin included?
Yes. Our units are sold as a complete set: the cabinet, the basin (integrated or countertop) and the matching mirror come together.
Can I install a wall-hung unit myself?
Yes, if the wall is solid. The unit ships with its screws; you simply need to fix it carefully at the right level and connect the waste. If in doubt, call a plumber.
