Why would you want two sinks? Well, in bathrooms shared by two people or more, a double vanity enables them to brush their teeth, put on their makeup, etc., at the same time. This means less conflict and more time saved. Double vanities also add value to your home. While one sink is typical and essential, two sinks make your home more desirable and attractive to potential buyers. Often, the choice to buy one home over another is how practical the bathroom is; a double vanity definitely adds to that.  Best of all, double vanities fit in all kinds of bathrooms, from traditional to modern and from average-sized to spacious. If you decide to go with a smaller vanity, keep the countertop uncluttered by adding mirrored medicine cabinets for extra storage space.
