The IKEA Kitchen Cabinet That's Perfect For Your Bathroom
Renovating your bathroom can be an exciting and overwhelming process. While you get the opportunity to completely customize your space, the number of options can seem truly limitless. And as if you didn't have enough choices already, now it's time to consider utilizing versatile kitchen cabinetry in your bathroom to achieve that perfect aesthetic you're going for. Fortunately, there are some parameters to your searching that should help you narrow it down, including easy-to-open doors and plenty of storage within.
Some of IKEA's popular kitchen cabinets — their SEKTION lineup – offers solid base cabinetry that is versatile enough to install in your bathrooms. They're also affordable, starting at $154 for one of their two-door base cabinets. Depending on your needs, however, you can choose between their base cabinets with shelves, those with drawers, or their option with a combo of drawers and doors. In addition to their wide selection of configurations, the SEKTION cabinets also come in a multitude of colors and finishes, helping you achieve the look you're going for, whether that's classic or modern. Whichever model you choose, your chance of success is high with these beloved cabinets from IKEA. Other than reviews that are critical of the assembly instructions, most customers comment on how fabulous they look once installed. One such review says, "I can't recommend them enough! Once you get the hang of assembly it is a breeze and the drawers slide so easily. Everyone marvels at how beautiful and fresh my space looks."
How to complete the look of your SEKTION cabinetry
While your bathroom will surely look fresh and new with your SEKTION cabinets, you'll instantly notice when looking at the IKEA webpage that these cabinets come without an included countertop. In a way, this is a benefit: you'll want different things from your bathroom countertops than you would from one in a kitchen (such as the ability to withstand constant humidity), so piecing together your cabinets and counters can be perfectly optimized to your needs. IKEA has a lot of great-looking countertops, crafted from a variety of materials that range from wood to quartz, which specifically claim to be affordable (you'll want to research pros and cons of IKEA's counters before committing, though, as prices can fluctuate due to market demand). If you choose to go with a wooden countertop — which may very well look incredible — you'll want to make sure you properly treat it to avoid it suffering rot after constant exposure to moisture.
You can also personalize the look of your SEKTION bathroom cabinets by choosing fun hardware to complement your design preferences. If you're wanting to stick with IKEA for all of your cabinetry finishes, there are several drawer pulls and handles to choose from, but you're more likely to find an ultra-unique look if you visit a supplier like Restoration Hardware. There, you'll find every style and finish available, ranging from $17 to $44 for member pricing. If that's a bit too expensive for your wallet, you can always try your luck on Amazon, which is sure to yield many options for every budget.
