FAQs
What material is the VidaXL Wash Basin made of?
The wash basin is made from high-quality ceramic, known for its durability and easy-to-clean surface.
Are the tap and drain included with the basin?
No, the tap and drain assembly are not included with the basin and must be purchased separately.
What are the dimensions of this wash basin?
The basin measures 45 cm in length, 32 cm in width, and 12.5 cm in height (45x32x12.5 cm).
Does the basin have an overflow function?
Yes, the basin is equipped with an overflow hole to prevent water from spilling over if it gets too full.
How do I clean and maintain the high-gloss finish?
Clean the basin with a soft cloth or sponge and mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials to preserve the high-gloss finish.
Can this basin be installed in any bathroom?
Its corner design makes it highly versatile and suitable for any bathroom, washroom, cloakroom, or powder room, especially beneficial for optimizing space in smaller areas.
What type of tap is compatible with this basin?
The basin has a standard faucet hole, making it compatible with most single-hole basin taps available on the market.
Troubleshooting
Water is not draining properly from the basin.
Check the drain stopper for any debris or blockages. Since the drain is separate, ensure it was installed correctly and is free from obstructions. You may need to remove and clear the drain trap.
Water is leaking around the base of the faucet or drain.
Tighten the connections for the faucet supply lines and the drain assembly. If the leak persists, check if the washers or seals are properly seated or if plumber's putty/sealant was applied correctly during installation. You might need to reapply sealant or replace worn washers.
The basin appears dull or has stubborn stains.
Use a ceramic-specific cleaner and a soft sponge. For tougher stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied and rinsed. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemical cleaners, which can damage the high-gloss finish.
Water is overflowing despite the overflow hole.
Ensure the overflow channel inside the basin is clear of debris. Sometimes, hair or soap residue can block this channel. If the problem persists, it may indicate a slow main drain, requiring further investigation of your plumbing system.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup

- Gather Components: Have your chosen tap, drain assembly, and any necessary plumbing tools ready. Remember, the tap and drain are *not* included.
- Positioning: Place the basin in its desired corner location to confirm fit. Mark the wall for mounting points if it's a wall-mounted installation (consult a professional if unsure).
- Install Faucet: Secure your tap into the pre-drilled faucet hole according to the tap manufacturer's instructions.
- Install Drain: Connect the drain assembly to the basin's drain opening. Ensure a watertight seal using plumber's putty or sealant as required.
- Plumbing Connections: Connect the water supply lines to the tap and the drainpipe to the drain assembly. Carefully test for leaks before final sealing.
Compatibility
This wash basin is compatible with standard bathroom plumbing connections for taps and drains. Its corner design and dimensions (45x32x12.5 cm) make it suitable for various bathrooms, washrooms, cloakrooms, or powder rooms, especially where space optimization is desired. It can be paired with a wide range of single-hole basin taps.
Care
The ceramic material is considerably easy to clean. For daily maintenance:
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or sponge with mild, non-abrasive soap or a ceramic-safe bathroom cleaner.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or strong chemical solutions (like those containing bleach or strong acids), as these can damage the high-gloss finish.
- Rinse Thoroughly: After cleaning, rinse the basin thoroughly with clean water to remove any soap residue.
- Wipe Dry: For best results and to prevent water spots, wipe the basin dry with a soft cloth after each use.
