Built-In Power Outlet & Storage
Chicago is built to be practical. The compact 24 and 30 inch sizes use an open lower shelf that's perfect for towels and baskets, while the 36 inch and larger sizes switch to soft-close drawers. On those larger sizes, one deep drawer includes a built-in power outlet with accessories, so you can charge a phone or keep styling tools plugged in and hidden while the countertop stays clear.
Chicago Bathroom Vanity Size Guide
Before choosing a color, start with size. Chicago runs from a compact 24 inch single sink up to a large 84 inch double, in single-, double-, center- and offset-sink layouts.
| Chicago Vanity Size | Best For | Recommended Layout | Shop by Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24 inch | Powder rooms and very small bathrooms | Single sink (open shelf) | 24″ vanities |
| 30 inch | Small bathrooms, guest baths, compact full baths | Single sink (open shelf) | 30″ vanities |
| 36 inch | Guest bathrooms, hall baths, small full bathrooms | Center or left offset sink (with power outlet) | 36″ vanities |
| 42 inch | Medium bathrooms and guest baths | Single sink (with power outlet) | 42″ vanities |
| 48 inch | Larger single sink bathrooms | Single sink | 48″ vanities |
| 60 inch | Primary and shared bathrooms | Single or double sink | 60″ vanities |
| 72 inch | Comfortable primary and shared bathrooms | Double sink | 72″ vanities |
| 84 inch | Large primary bathrooms and luxury remodels | Double sink | 84″ vanities |
For a powder room, choose a 24 or 30 inch Chicago. For a guest bath, choose 36, 42 or 48 inch. For a primary bathroom, choose 60, 72 or 84 inch depending on whether you need one sink or two.
Single Sink vs Double Sink Chicago Vanities
Chicago comes in both single-sink and double-sink layouts. Single-sink suits powder rooms, guest baths and smaller bathrooms; double-sink suits shared primary bathrooms and wider vanity walls.
| Layout | Best For | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|
| Single sink (24–60 in) | Powder rooms, guest baths, hall baths, smaller bathrooms | Color and clean Shaker style without crowding the room |
| Double sink (60 in) | Primary and shared bathrooms | Two under-mounted basins with a comfortable footprint |
| Double sink (72 in) | Comfortable primary bathrooms | More counter space between the two basins |
| Large double (84 in) | Primary bath focal walls | Two basins plus a wide bank of storage between |

Center & Offset Sink Chicago Vanities
The Chicago 36 inch is available in both center-sink and left-offset layouts. An offset sink is useful when you want more usable counter space on one side, or when the plumbing is not centered on the wall.
| Sink Layout | Best For | Why It Helps |
|---|---|---|
| Center sink | Most standard 36 inch layouts | Balanced look with easy mirror alignment |
| Left offset sink | More counter space needed on the right | Works better with off-center plumbing |
Compare left offset sink vanities and right offset sink vanities before choosing your Chicago size.
Quartz and Marble Countertops
Chicago vanities are finished with a quartz or marble top and a matching 4-inch backsplash, in a straight/mitered (2 in.) or double-cove (1.5 in.) edge. There is a wide choice of quartz colors plus Carrara marble and select natural-stone options.
| Countertop Type | Best For | Design Result |
|---|---|---|
| White quartz | Pink, green, black, burgundy and neutral Chicago | Clean contrast and practical daily use |
| Calacatta & Carrara-look quartz | Classic and luxury bathrooms | Elegant veining with easy everyday care |
| Carrara marble & natural stone | Luxury bathrooms and natural stone lovers | Classic, unique and high-end |
| Gray & dramatic quartz (Piatra, Viola, Onyx) | Bold and designer bathrooms | Strong movement and character |
White quartz is the most flexible option because it works with every Chicago color. Marble and marble-look tops are especially strong with black, green, burgundy and pink.
Faucet Configuration Options
Every Chicago countertop supports single-hole, 8-inch widespread or wall-mount faucets, so you can match the faucet to your style. Confirm the faucet drilling before ordering, and for double-sink Chicago vanities make sure both faucet zones match.
| Faucet Configuration | Best For | Design Feel |
|---|---|---|
| Single-hole faucet | Modern bathrooms and clean quartz tops | Minimal, easy to clean, streamlined |
| 8-inch widespread faucet | Classic, transitional and luxury bathrooms | Elegant, balanced, high-end |
| Wall-mount faucet | Custom and architectural bathroom designs | Spa-like, clean countertop, designer look |
Best Chicago Vanity by Bathroom Type
| Bathroom Type | Best Chicago Vanity | Why |

What to Measure Before Buying a Chicago Vanity
Before ordering a Chicago bathroom vanity — especially a large double — measure carefully.
- Wall width: measure the full wall or opening where the vanity will sit.
- Vanity depth: Chicago cabinets are about 21½ inches deep (roughly 22 inches with the top) — confirm the walkway and door swing.
- Plumbing location: check drain and supply placement before choosing single, double, center or offset sink layout.
- Power outlet: if you want the built-in outlet (36 inch and larger), plan an electrical connection near the vanity.
- Drawer clearance: make sure drawers won't hit the toilet, wall or shower door.
- Faucet drilling: confirm single-hole, 8 inch widespread or wall-mount before ordering.
- Countertop overhang: measure the finished top, not only the cabinet box.
Before ordering: read our bathroom vanity measurement guide to confirm width, depth, plumbing rough-in, door swing, drawer clearance and sink placement.
