FAQs

Does the unit come fully assembled?

The vanity cabinet typically arrives pre-assembled for easier installation, though the basin may need to be mounted and sealed.

What type of tap do I need for this basin?

This unit is compatible with a standard mono-basin mixer tap. Please ensure the reach of your chosen tap is suitable for the 400mm basin size.

Can I use harsh chemical cleaners on the green finish?

No, it is recommended to use mild soap and water to prevent damaging the satin finish. Avoid bleach and abrasive scrubbers.

Is the basin reversible?

No, the basin is designed specifically for this unit and should be installed with the tap hole positioned as intended by the manufacturer.

What is the weight capacity of the cabinet?

The unit is designed to hold the weight of the fireclay basin and standard bathroom toiletries. Avoid placing excessively heavy items on the soft-close door when open.

Troubleshooting

The vanity door is not closing softly or is misaligned.

Adjust the tension screws on the soft-close hinge plates to align the door properly and ensure the mechanism is engaged.

Water is pooling around the drain.

Verify that the basin is perfectly level upon installation and that the waste gasket is properly sealed.

The unit feels unstable.

Ensure the vanity is securely anchored to the wall studs using the provided mounting hardware.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Space-saving 400mm width ideal for small areas
  • Soft-close door prevents wear and noise
  • Durable fireclay construction
  • Stylish fluted detailing for a premium look
  • Easy to coordinate with other Retro series items

Cons

  • Tap and waste are not included
  • Requires professional installation for plumbing
  • Limited surface area due to compact size

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires standard plumbing tools. Because the unit is floor-standing, it must be secured to the wall to prevent tipping. When selecting a tap, ensure you choose a mono-basin mixer that fits the pre-drilled hole in the basin.

Care Instructions:

  • Wipe the cabinet with a soft, damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the satin green finish.
  • Clean the fireclay basin with a non-scratch sponge to preserve the glaze.
  • Regularly check the internal plumbing for leaks during the first month of use.
  • Use a soft cloth to dry the surface after cleaning to prevent water spot accumulation.
