How 72 Inch Bathroom Vanities Help Maximize Bathroom Space
72 inch bathroom vanities offer a smart layout solution for larger bathrooms, whether you’re planning for two people to share the space or simply want more surface area and storage. This size can be configured with either a single sink or a double sink, depending on your plumbing and how much open counter space you prefer. It’s a common choice for primary bathrooms or remodels where function, storage, and proportion matter. Instead of leaving a long wall bare, a vanity this wide helps anchor the space, with room for drawer organizers, extra towels, or everyday countertop items.
You can choose between 60 and 72 inch vanities if you need a double sink, but 72 inches gives you more layout flexibility, like room for lighting between mirrors or the option to better center the vanity along a longer wall. This collection includes both wall-mounted and freestanding styles. You’ll find options with quartz countertops, undermount sinks, and matching bathroom storage like linen towers or wall cabinets. Freestanding designs are available with either open legs or enclosed toekicks, depending on the look you’re going for.
For shared bathrooms, a 72 inch vanity gives each person more personal space at the sink, which can help keep the counter less cluttered. It also simplifies storage by offering more drawers and counter space in one spot, so you might not need extra cabinets or baskets elsewhere. For many homeowners, it’s an efficient upgrade that improves how the space works day to day.
