Why is it so popular?

The Scanalato Vanity Unit is one of our most popular products and there are a few reasons why. Here are some of our customer’s favourite aspects of this special vanity unit:

Customisation Options

The Scanalato Vanity Unit offers a range of customisation options, allowing you to personalise your bathroom space and create an interior that reflects your personality and unique taste. With 19 unique colours to choose from, plus a Walnut option, there is a shade to match any design preference. Additionally, for those seeking a more personalised touch, we offer bespoke colour options.

Customers can select bespoke colours from well-known paint brands such as Farrow & Ball, RAL, Lick, Crown, Dulux, and Benjamin Moore. If the shade you would like is not within the standard selection, the bespoke option allows for virtually any colour to be matched and used.

The process for selecting a bespoke colour is easy. You can submit your colour choice through the enquiry form on the 34 St John website or order directly online using our interactive colour picker. Our team then orders a sample pot of the selected paint, creates a physical sample panel, and ensures the colour matches precisely. This panel is used to develop a paint formula in the supplier's paint kitchen, ensuring it meets the required specifications for bathroom use.

This level of customisation means that each Scanalato Vanity Unit can be tailored to perfectly complement any bathroom décor, allowing you to craft your perfect sanctuary, down to every last detail.

Design Flexibility

One of the key elements of the Scanalato Vanity Unit is the basin options; you can either choose your own countertop basin, and if the vanity unit is wide enough, you could even position two countertop basins if you desire. Or you can opt for the integrated basin option.

The clean lines and minimalist design of the basin complement the textured reed fluted front incredibly well, creating a cohesive and sophisticated aesthetic.

Whether you prefer bold, vibrant colours or subtle, muted tones, there is a Scanalato unit to suit your taste.

Additionally, the choice between solid wood or walnut materials adds another layer of customisation. These materials offer durability and bring a natural element to the bathroom, enhancing the overall design.

Quality Control

Throughout the manufacturing process, strict quality control measures are in place. The team monitors each step, from colour matching to final paint application, to ensure the bespoke vanity unit meets the exact standards that you expect. This attention to detail guarantees that each unit is not only beautiful but also built to last. All units come with a 5 year guarantee.

BeyondStone™ Countertop or Integrated Basin

The BeyondStone™material is an innovative feature of the Scanalato Vanity Unit, known for its exceptional quality and performance. Here are some of the key features: 

Material and Durability

BeyondStone™ is a high-performance material designed to withstand the rigours of daily bathroom use. It is resistant to stains and scratches, ensuring that it maintains its appearance and functionality over time. This makes it an ideal choice for a long-lasting bathroom countertop.

Aesthetic Appeal

BeyondStone™ offers a sleek and contemporary look that enhances the overall design of the Scanalato Vanity Unit. Its clean lines and smooth surface provide a modern and sophisticated appearance, fitting seamlessly into various bathroom styles.

Easy Maintenance

One of the significant advantages of BeyondStone™ is its ease of maintenance. The non-porous surface prevents the absorption of liquids, making it simple to clean and maintain. A quick wipe with a damp cloth is usually sufficient to keep it looking pristine.
