Browse our range of basins and cloakroom basins across more than 40 models — from a compact corner cloakroom basin of 32.5 x 32.5 cm to a wide basin of 100 x 45 cm, and from ceramic to artificial marble. Prices range from around €15 for a basin waste to nearly €600 for a complete basin, with brands including Aloni, DutchLine, Isvea and Creavit.
Choosing the Right Basin for Your Bathroom
Size is everything. A cloakroom basin for a WC can get away with 39 x 23 cm, whereas a basin in the main bathroom will typically need 80 x 45 cm or more. Material matters too: ceramic is scratch-resistant and easy to keep clean, while artificial marble offers a more luxurious look but should be kept away from abrasive cleaners.
If you need an accessible bathroom, the wheelchair-accessible basin at 60 cm is the obvious choice. It hangs low with clear space underneath so a wheelchair can pull straight in. When selecting a model, also check the tap hole: some Creavit and Aloni basins come with a tap hole pre-drilled, while others are tap hole-free and require a wall-mounted or separate mixer tap.
Installation: The Most Common Mistakes
The most frequent error when fitting a basin is misaligning the bottle trap with the wall waste outlet. Always measure the height of the wall outlet before fixing the basin in place — a 2 cm difference can be enough to prevent a straight connection to the bottle trap. This is especially important with inset models or basins hung low for wheelchair use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Wheelchair-Accessible Basin and When Do I Need One?
A wheelchair-accessible basin is mounted low and has no vanity unit beneath it, allowing a wheelchair to roll straight underneath. You would choose this when the bathroom needs to be fully accessible — for example, during a renovation for someone with a disability. The standard width for this type is 60 cm.
What Is the Difference Between a Cloakroom Basin and a Basin?
A cloakroom basin is smaller and designed for a WC or compact space — think 39 x 23 cm or 50 x 40 cm. A basin is larger, has a deeper bowl, and serves as the primary washing facility in the bathroom. Both connect to a standard 5/4-inch waste outlet.
Which Basin Waste Fits My Basin?
Most basins work with a 5/4-inch click-clack waste, such as the DutchLine Luxe Clickwaste or the Aloni Push-Up. Always check the waste diameter of the model you choose. If your basin has an overflow, you will need a waste with an overflow connection — not all wastes include this.
If you need storage alongside your basin, you will find further options in our vanity units and bathroom furniture collections. For matching taps, head to basin mixer taps or browse the full range of basin wastes and bottle traps.
