In the morning, I slowly opened my sleepy eyes, and the first thing was to meet the bathroom vanity; in the evening, to relieve the fatigue of the day, the last thing was to go to the bathroom vanity.
The bathroom vanity brings people an indispensable sense of belonging. It can be said to be the most frequently used area in the family. So how to choose a bathroom vanity that suits you?
1. Glaze finish and brightness
When purchasing, first of all, like ordinary white ceramic basins, you must pay attention to the smoothness and brightness of the glaze. Good glaze finish and brightness are excellent, the color is pure, not easy to get dirty and fouling, easy to clean, and it is still bright as new after long-term use.
When judging, you can choose to observe it from multiple angles from the side of the ceramic under strong light. A good glaze should have no stains, pinholes, blisters and bubbles, and the surface is very smooth.
The reflectivity of light is good and uniform; you can also gently touch the surface with your hand, and the hand feeling is very smooth and delicate. Another expert suggested that when you touch the back of the ceramic basin, there should be a slight friction of “sand”.
When choosing, you can also compare and observe products of different brands together, so as to quickly judge the quality of the basin.
2. Water absorption index
The so-called water absorption rate is an index to judge the adsorption and penetration ability of ceramic products to water. It is understood that after the water is absorbed into the ceramic, the ceramic will expand to a certain extent, which will easily cause the glaze on the ceramic surface to crack due to swelling.
It can be seen that the lower the water absorption rate, the better the quality of ceramic products. According to the relevant national standards for water absorption, sanitary ceramics with a water absorption rate of less than 3% are high-grade ceramics.
When purchasing, you should pay more attention to the manufacturer’s instructions, and try to choose products with low water absorption.
3. Craft, pattern, color
Most of the high-end hand-painted basins use the underglaze color ceramic technology, which is also the best ceramic technology at present, so pay attention to identification when purchasing, so as to prevent illegal dealers from pretending to be underglaze colors with on-glaze colors.
Underglaze decoration pays attention to the freehand brushwork style, it must be hand-painted, not printing, decals, and the color should be bright.
It should be reminded that the hand-painted art basin, because it is all hand-made, is different from the mass production of machines. The production methods and styles are different. The effect of the same set of patterns is slightly different. You should observe carefully when purchasing.
During the high-temperature firing process, the products are transformed into color glaze kilns. Each product will have a certain color difference, and small cracks will appear on the color glaze glaze surface. This is the characteristic of color glaze handmade products for thousands of years, so it will not affect the overall effect. .
Well, the above content about buying a bathroom vanity is introduced here. Is there anything else that is unclear? Hope it will be helpful to you all.
