Product Information

Full details

This Hudson Reed Fluted Wall Hung Vanity Unit and Mid-Edge Basin in Satin Blue is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish, space-saving solution for smaller bathrooms, en-suites, or cloakrooms. Its key benefit is the combination of Art Deco-inspired design with practical, concealed storage, offering a fresh and elegant aesthetic. A potential caveat is its 500mm width, which, while ideal for compact spaces, might be too small for larger bathrooms requiring more basin area. The unit features a vertically fluted drawer front, a satin blue gloss finish, a soft-close drawer, and a mid-edge ceramic basin, all contributing to a clean, modern look with functional storage.

Can this unit be used in a standard bathroom, not just a small one?

Troubleshooting

Drawer not closing smoothly

Check for any obstructions within the drawer runners. Ensure the drawer is properly seated on its glides. If the issue persists, inspect the soft-close mechanism for damage.

Water leaks from basin connections

Ensure all plumbing connections (waste trap, water supply) are securely tightened. Check seals and washers for wear or damage and replace if necessary. Professional installation is recommended if you are unsure.

Unit feels loose on the wall

This indicates a potential issue with the wall fixings. Immediately remove any weight from the unit and check that all mounting screws are tight and that the fixings are appropriate for your wall type and securely anchored.

Surface finish appears dull or scratched

Avoid abrasive cleaning products. Use a specialized furniture polish designed for gloss finishes, or a mild soap and water solution followed by thorough drying with a soft microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This vanity unit is supplied pre-assembled, simplifying the installation process. However, due to its wall-hung nature, secure mounting to the wall is crucial. Ensure you are using appropriate wall fixings for your wall type (e.g., plasterboard, brick). It is recommended to have a qualified plumber or installer fit the unit to guarantee correct installation and water connections.

Compatibility:

  • Plumbing: Standard basin waste and trap fittings are compatible. Ensure your water supply connections are readily accessible.
  • Taps: The basin is supplied without tap holes, allowing you to choose monobloc mixer taps or wall-mounted taps to suit your design preference. Ensure your chosen tap is compatible with the basin dimensions.
  • Accessories: The satin blue finish pairs well with chrome, brushed nickel, brass, or matte black tapware and accessories.

Care:

  • Clean the unit and basin regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the painted gloss finish and the ceramic surface.
  • For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with clean water, then dry with a soft cloth.
  • Wipe up any spills immediately to prevent staining or damage.
