Bathroom vanity units

Hi, looking for advice/recommendations on bathroom vanity units. I've looked in the usual places, wickes and local bathroom shops, but can't find what I'm looking for. Image attached.

I was also looking at the moulded Corinth type basins that sit on top of bathroom units. If you have one, what are like in terms of practical stuff, for example, cleaning, light colours verses dark colours wear and tear, staining, denting etc

If you've got vanity units like the images attached, what under-counter basin did you opt for and can you recommend a company that I buy this type of unit from?

Units online.co.uk show a bathroom almost identical to your second picture. If you look in the customer reviews section, it shows pictures alongside the reviews.

I got bathstore.com to do a plan of my bathroom - but then shopped around online and bought all,the units and sanitary ware from Victorianplumbing.com and saved around £1500. There's also Victoria Plumb, both do brochures

Smallbone of Devizes do similar if you have the money!

Burlington do some larger vanities similar to number 2. Stuff similar to number 1, I’ve only seen in upmarket bathroom design shops.

Neptune may be similar and cheaper.

Flirtygirl, saw the bathroom furniture someone has made out of kitchen cupboards from unitsonline. It looks quite amazing what they've done and at a fraction of the cost of the other recommendations.

Does anyone know if bathroom cabinets etc are manufactured differently to withstand wet, steamy bathrooms, as opposed to the temperature and humidity in a kitchen. Concerned if I do this they may warp, but I don't know.

Has anyone done this, made bathroom furniture out of kitchen cabinets and if so, have you had any problems such as swelling of the cupboards and doors, fading of the colour etc???

Wherever you buy, if online, check to see if you can get a trade account. I did this with victorian plumbling and saved a bundle on top of original bathroom savings

Parker Howley
Harvey George
Tikamoon
Lusso Stone

all have nice vanities. Parker Howley in particular has similar to what you pictured, and they can bespoke it (to some extent) for you eg choice of colour.
