I am SO disappointed right now.
My husband went to check out house progress today and the bathrooms are not what we expected them to be AT ALL. We opted not to get the double sinks because it was insanely expensive. When discussed with our sales rep, he said it was because of plumbing. When we opted for the single bowl sinks, we did not realize that we would actually be getting smaller vanities! In the kids bathroom, its fine. It looks kind of dumb, but its fine. But in the Master Bath - it just looks so stupid. It's a single vanity with a kind of extension of countertop, so the space underneath is empty. It looks awful. I am so disappointed.
My husband called this morning to get more information and it is sounding like they won't do anything. That really sucks. We're spending all this money on our house and we hate the bathrooms and now we're going to have to rip out these vanities and put new ones in. BOOOOOOOOO!
What??? They CAN do something. It might cost money and delay things, but SOMETHING can be done. I'd push and push to get what you want! NOW is the time, not when you're moved in and have to totally inconvenience w/ a bathroom renovation!!! GL!!!
ReplyDeleteDid it end up looking like mine in my blog? http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_io3FoB8YeiA/S_HsUJ8vgaI/AAAAAAAAALM/1XQEyi_XCO4/s1600/IMG_0254.JPG
ReplyDeleteIt was really no big deal or expense to get the extra cabinet put in. Much cheaper than getting the double sinks.
I have the same as Thrifty Amy... We're debating if we're going to put a stool underneath for a vanity type thing... or they told us where we can get the cabinet and it's pretty cheap.
ReplyDeleteHope your experience improves. :-)
ThriftyAmy - yes! That's exactly what we have. I went and saw it in person and it isn't quite as bad as I thought. I think the other bathroom is worse. Did you put in another cabinet or have you left it as is?
ReplyDelete@Kristine - yes, we added cabinets. I put the supplier info in my blog. I'll post some updated pictures in my blog soon. I put in 2 cabinets under there for around $240.
ReplyDelete@ThriftyAmy - thank you so much. Was it Timberlake? We found a local retailer that sells that product so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we can get what we're looking for.
ReplyDeleteKristine - pictures are up!
ReplyDeleteWe have the same as Amy (and you) as well since we opted to have the single bowl sink. I am actually loving it now, as I have a tower shelf under there for cosmetics, etc, and a great vanity stool that fits perfectly. However ... the big difference is that our rep made it clear to us this is what it would look like if we went with a single versus a double. I can understand your frustration completely if this was never explained to you. Good luck ...
