New Products To Improve Your Home's Bathroom Style and Safety

When homebuyers are searching for a new home, the bathroom is close to the top of their list.  So, to keep up with consumer demand, bathrooms have been getting bigger and bigger over the years.  This shows when you compare today's average size bathroom to the average size bathrooms that were built in the ‘70s.  Builders are now trying to concentrate on the room's style, functionality and safety. 

Modern Danish has come out with bathroom vanities for both large and small bathrooms that function well.  The vanities are very stylish and are made from hardwood.  They come in the most desired finishes: natural oak and Wenge espresso brown.  The wood finishes really compliment a large selection of stone tile.  All the new vanities hold their unique glass vessel sinks that are commonly used in today's trendy bathrooms.  Granite tops complete the vanity with a unique touch.  You can also find a wide variety of new towel bars, faucets and more to compliment your vanity. 

New technology has come into the bathroom as well.  The new Hot Stop Scald Protection Faucets are great for preventing hot water burns.  Each year, there are thousands of scolding water injuries and deaths and tap water burns are the second most common burn.  So, these new faucets will dramatically eliminate those horrors.  The technology works by the water detecting an unsafe temperature and reducing the water flow to a trickle.  Showerheads and tub spouts are also available. 

When you're buying a new home or just want to upgrade your current bathroom, look for these great new features.
