B&M's £30 Cabinet Rivals B&Q's £295 Vanity Unit

Shoppers seeking to add both elegance and practicality to their bathrooms may have found the perfect solution with a new arrival at B&M. The budget retailer, which operates over 700 stores across the UK, describes this piece as a 'convenient storage essential'.

The Bathroom Collection Undersink Cabinet

The Bathroom Collection Undersink Cabinet has joined B&M's expanding range of affordable homeware and furniture. Priced at just £30, this item is available for in-store collection only, and customers can check stock at their local branch using the online store locator.

Designed to fit neatly beneath a standard pedestal basin, the cabinet maximizes space in smaller bathrooms. It features a light oak-effect finish, two front doors with a vertical slatted design, and matte black handles. The freestanding unit conceals unsightly pipework while providing hidden internal shelving for toiletries and cleaning supplies.

B&M stated: 'Bring elegance and functionality to your bathroom with this on-trend Bathroom Collection Undersink Cabinet. A convenient storage essential for any bathroom, featuring a U-shaped cut out to fit under sinks, and double doors. Oak-effect, self assembly required.'

The compact cabinet measures 60cm wide, 30cm deep, and 60cm high, making it suitable for standard-sized bathrooms. It comes with a pre-cut U-shaped opening at the top, measuring 20cm wide by 22cm deep, allowing it to slide around existing pedestal plumbing and sit flush to the wall.

Comparison with B&Q's Premium Option

The B&M cabinet bears a striking resemblance to a more expensive option at B&Q. The Wood Floorstanding Vanity Unit is priced at £294.95, over £260 more than the B&M version. B&Q describes its unit as: 'Introducing the Affine Fluted freestanding vanity unit, designed to infuse a touch of Art Deco elegance into modern bathrooms. With its distinctive fluted front and wood finish, this unit exudes sophistication. Equipped with soft-close doors and a ceramic basin, it offers both durability and ease of maintenance, while providing a premium aesthetic.'

The B&Q unit stands 613mm wide and includes under-sink storage behind two soft-close doors. It features an oak-effect finish, a matt black ceramic basin with a single tap hole, and black handles. Constructed from 16mm MDF, it is suited for bathroom settings and arrives flat-packed for self-assembly.
