Best For RV’s: AHB 16” Bathroom Vanity W/Sink Combo for Small Space

If you own an RV, you may find yourself looking for a replacement vanity for the one that came with your RV. In that case, we like this model by AHB—excellent minimalist design and construction quality, plus you can easily install it yourself.

What We Liked

• Perfect size for small spaces.

• Good build quality.

• Easy to install.

• Sturdy.

• Soft-door close is nice quality touch.

What Needs Work

• Sink is rather shallow.

• May need a flex pipe to have it hang at appropriate height.

Best Compact Size: eclife 16” Bathroom Vanity Sink Combo

Many compact vanities for small bathrooms are 24″ wide—but what if you need something even smaller? This vanity by eclife is just 16″ wide and perfect for a small bathroom where space is at a premium. The fit and finish of this vanity was impressive—and we liked the stainless steel faucet.

What We Liked

• Easy to assemble.

• Simple to mount to wall.

• Nice modern look.

• Sturdy.

• Affordable.

What Needs Work

• Watch for shipping damage—open when it arrives to inspect.

Best Mid-Century Vibe: Modway Render Mid-Century Bathroom Vanity with Sink

The faux walnut finish on the wood on this vanity is the star feature here—and it gives this vanity that sought-after mid-century look. We found this model easy to assemble and quality good . . . note the soft-close drawers. Caveat: faucet not included.

What We Liked

• Sturdy.

• Easy to assemble and install.

• Mid-century look with walnut-like finish on MDF and laminate.

What Needs Work

• No faucet is included, unlike other models we researched for this article.

• Pricey.

Best Contemporary Look: UEV Small Bathroom Vanity

This vanity is a reader favorite for its clean and simple lines—yes, it is just 16″ wide, so it is on the smaller side. But we liked the simple, contemporary look (note the rectangular sink) as well as the overall build quality.

What We Liked

• Light grey finish works well in current bathroom decor.

• Simple, clean design.

• Includes chrome faucet.

• Wall mount for floating look.

What Needs Work

• Small size (16″ wide) limits its utility for some users.

• Assembly instructions could be clearer.

How We Pick Products To Recommend

We often turn to our readers (3 million strong!) to find products to recommend. We ask our parent readers for their favorites and consider their real-world experiences in our recommendations.

When we test a product, we always purchase it with our own monies. We do not take free samples, as we believe that compromises our independence.

We also fact check manufacturer information with our own measurements. If a maker claims a product weighs X pounds, we will weigh it to make sure. If the battery life is supposed to be six hours, we will see how it stands up in the real world.

In some cases, we will do interviews with experts in the field to get additional feedback on products.

To get hands-on time with products, we regularly meet one-on-one with gear companies and even tour manufacturing facilities. (When we do this, we pay our own travel expenses).

Why Trust Us

We’ve been rating and reviewing products for the home and families since 1994. We do extensive research, evaluating products with an eye toward quality, ease of use and affordability.

We make our living from affiliate commissions, but we always recommend what we think are the best bets for our readers (not the ones that are the most expensive). We are always looking for products that offer the best bang for the buck.

Our independence is a key reason why we have been doing this so long. As we mentioned above, when we purchase a product for hands-on testing, we do so with our own money.

Here’s another key point: we don’t take money from the brands we review. No free samples, no sponsors, no “partnerships.” Our work is 100% reader-supported!
