Okay. So this is kind of spooky for me to see, but also very good. ;)

I bought the same vanity (when it was on sale at home depot, great price, huh??) the same faucet, pretty much the same paint colour... and your dragon fly candle holder (shown in picture 1 and 7) is the same as mine only I have the butterfly one and it's slated to be in the bathroom once I actually get to renovating.

CRAZY!!!

But it's way cool to see everything since I haven't had a chance to even start my bathroom yet. XD

A hundred dollars for a vanity (it wasn't on sale, the regular price was $100) is crazy cheap and I was pretty surprised at the quality which is damn good.

The storage space in this vanity was six inches less than my previous one and six inches actually holds a lot of crap. Vanities that were the same size as my old one were $200 more than the one I bought and in the end, I'm so glad I chose this one.

That six inches of depth actually made a big difference in my floor space, and in a teeny room, six inches really does matter. I'm going to build shelving in the vanity so that I can make use of the unused vertical space.

Good luck on your renovation, I'm happy to have given you a visual!

Hi! I couldn't find the vanity of the Home Depot site. I am interested in getting one of my own! I am glad that you mentioned the quality.

A very similar (same?) vanity received poor reviews on the Lowe's site:

Well, everything is subjective I guess. I paid $100 and I wasn't expecting a Rolls Royce.

It was not damaged to begin with which is what one bad review said. Another bad review said parts were missing, I had nothing missing. One person said they used 'cheap' material which won't stand up to moisture.

I have had mine installed for a few months and normal amounts of moisture have run down the sides of the vanity and it has not affected the finish inside or out in any way.

I am very pleased with the look and how it functions and how it has held up so far. I think I got a great deal for $100 and that it was *worth* $100 dollars.

Of course, my opinion is subjective too. What I had before was awful, I am very happy with this improvement.

This would be a HUGE improvement to us as well. Though, I'm not even sure if we have the space for it.

Thanks for the personal review.

You're welcome. I guess your only other option is a pedestal sink? Those are lovely too.

lol we also bought similar vanities and faucet. I think that Home Depot vanity sale sparked a bathroom renovation revolution.

The bathroom of my dreams is way out of my price range.

This is much better than it was though, so I'm pretty happy with it all.

I am looking for the same vanity for my small bathroom. I need something shallow. Is this a vanity/sink combo?

Yes, the one I bought is a sink/vanity combo.
