Medicine cabinets are a common fixture in many households; usually found in bathrooms where they are fixed above
the sink. Despite the name, they are highly versatile, and can be used to store virtually anything that needs to be used or kept in the bathroom, such as medication, hygiene products or toiletries. Compared to a regular bathroom rack, drawer or shelf, which can be easily moved and placed, medicine cabinets require a bit more work to setup and install – but they do offer plenty of benefits that make the extra effort worthwhile.
Read our latest guide about the best mirrored medicine cabinets.
Benefits
- Good organisation – With traditional drawers, items are typically jumbled within, and you waste precious time having to root through the mess. Most if not all medicine cabinets come with shelves and
specialised compartments, so you can stow your items and keep them organised. It is also more convenient, as you will be able to view everything on the shelves in one go, rather than having to look through different drawers. - Space Saving – Thanks to its two-in-one functionality, medicine cabinets help you to save space, making it an ideal furniture piece for those living in smaller spaces such as studio apartments.
- Versatile – Medicine cabinets typically come with a mirror on the door – so apart from keeping things out of sight but within easy reach, it also saves you the cost of purchasing and mounting a separate mirror.
specialised compartments, so you can stow your items and keep them organised. It is also more convenient, as you will be able to view everything on the shelves in one go, rather than having to look through different drawers.Installation Style
There are two types of installation styles when it comes to how you put up your medicine cabinet; namely surface mount or recessed. The recessed style has to be anchored within the wall to rectangular framing, by cutting out a part of the drywall. This makes the cabinet flush to the surface, which some homeowners might prefer for aesthetic purposes, since the cabinet will not be jutting out from the wall. It is also more space saving. However, considerable effort is required to achieve this, as the framing has to be clear of obstructions, and there cannot be wires or plumbing lines within the wall. Their depth and size is also limited by how much you can cut out from the wall.
The surface mount, as its name suggests, involves mounting your cabinet onto the bathroom wall’s surface. They are fairly easy to install, since it only requires anchoring screws to the wall and hanging the cabinet from them instead of having to cut out part of the wall or remove wiring.On the flipside, they look bulkier and more cumbersome compared to recessed medicine cabinets.

Key Features To Look Out For
Now that we’ve looked at the benefits and types of medicine cabinets, here are a few key features to look out for before deciding on what to get for your home.
Size and Dimensions
One of the most obvious things to consider is the size of the cabinet in comparison to the available space in your bathroom. This is also highly dependent on whether you intend to install your medicine cabinet in the 
recessed or surface mount style. If you have more space for a larger unit, or have multiple people in a household, you can even opt for a triple-door design.
Design
The classic medicine cabinet typically features a single door, but there are also double or triple-door designs. Depending on how you want to match the cabinet to your overall interior, there are plenty of different frame options and looks to go with, whether its classic or modern.
Some medicine cabinets are designed with slow closing doors to prevent slamming, and might come with reversible left or right side door opening to suit different users.
Material
Materials such as aluminium and steel offer a sleek, contemporary appearance, and are less likely to rust. Wood-based materials, such as solid wood, plywood and medium density fibreboard, look elegant and refined – but needs to be treated properly to prevent damage and warping from moisture and humidity. On the inside, the cabinet shelves can be made of tempered glass, aluminium, wood or steel – but they should be durable and able to withstand a considerable amount of weight.
Functionality and Additional Features
Beyond storage, many modern medicine cabinets on the market today offer additional features, such as defogging capabilities, which helps keep mirrors clear for use, as well as magnifying internal mirrors to help you see better when shaving or applying makeup. Meanwhile, interior mirrors mean that you won’t have to close the door to use the mirror. Others come with integrated LED lighting, or lockboxes to keep important items, such as medicine, out of the reach of children.
With that, here are our top picks for medicine cabinets:
Top 15 Best Medicine Cabinets in 2022
1. KOHLER K-99001-NA Verdera Slow-Close Medicine Cabinet With Magnifying Mirror
Founded close to 150 years ago, Kohler is a reputable American brand specialising in the manufacture of 
plumbing products, including luxury bathroom cabinetry and furniture. Their Verdera medicine cabinets offer a simple yet elegant storage solution with tonnes of functionality.
Size and Dimensions
The Verdera comes in two sizes, namely the 15 by 30 inches, which is ideal for small spaces, and the wider 20 by 30 inches, suitable for larger rooms and if you need expansive storage space. Buyers can also opt for single, two and three-door configurations to suit different lifestyles and space needs.
Design and Material
Made from rust-free aluminium, the Verdera is sturdy, long-lasting and ideal for moist bathroom environments. The tempered glass shelves provide ample storage space within, and can be adjusted to fit items of varying heights. Choose from three configurations: the basic cabinet style, cabinet with magnifying mirror and slow-close functionality, and cabinet with quick-access shelf, magnifying mirror and slow-close functionality. Meanwhile, the door features slow-close hinges which operate smoothly and prevents slamming. The unit can be cleaned easily with a soft, dampened sponge or cloth, but avoid abrasive material such as a brush or a scouring pad.
Additional Features
Aside from the full-overlay mirrored door, the Verdara features a full mirrored interior – with mirrors on the back of the door and interior back of the cabinet, so you don’t have to swing the door back and forth. Additionally, this lends a sense of space to the bathroom when opened.
Inside the cabinet, users will find a vertically adjustable 3x magnifying mirror which slides up and down to accommodate multiple users and tasks, although the quality of this feature can be improved as the mirror is housed in a plastic frame and has a tendency to slide down.
In-cabinet outlets allow users to easily connect electric toothbrushes, curling iron, hair dryer or shaver. Another handy feature that users can opt for is the exposed shelf at the bottom of the cabinet, which allows you to reach quickly for often-used items, such as toothbrushes or face soaps.
Ease of Installation
The Verdera offers flexible installation, as you can choose to go for either surface mount or recessed style. Surface mount saves time as the cabinet can be hung like a picture frame via a hanger bar installed directly on the wall. The cabinet slides easily into place on the bar and can be secured with mounting clips, doing away with the bottom-up installation typical of most cabinets. However, this style of installation means the cabinet has to be spruced up with mirrored side kits (sold separately), as the sides are unfinished.
The recessed installation can be complemented by a wood frame to match your bathroom interiors. It also allows you to customise the door orientation, if you want a left or right hand swing.
Pros
- Customisable – offers several configurations
- Surface mount or recessed installation
- In-cabinet outlets for plugging to electronic devices
- 3x adjustable magnifying mirror
- Mirrors behind door and at back of cabinet
- Option for open shelf to quickly reach items
- Adjustable tempered glass shelves
- Rust-free aluminium construction
- Slow-swinging hinges for quiet operation and to prevent slamming
Cons
- Quality of interior magnifying mirror can be improved, comes in plastic frame and slides down easily, does not stay in place
- No defogging capabilities
- Expensive
2. Croydex WC102322AZ Westbourne Triple Door Tri-View Cabinet
A leading supplier of bathroom accessories, Croydex’s focus on design and innovation has made it a popular 
brand among home and living enthusiasts. Their Westbourne series offers a practical solution for your bathroom storage needs, without compromising on aesthetics.
Size and Dimensions
The Croydex Westbourne series measures 30 x 36 inches, with a depth of about 5 inches, ensuring plenty of storage space. It comes in a triple door configuration, with each door measuring an equal 12 inches.
Design and Material
Made from steel, the Westbourne’s surface is powder coated to protect the material from the moist environment of a bathroom and prevent rusting – thus making it very sturdy and durable. The inside shelves are also made from the same material. While these are adjustable, there are only two shelves in each unit, which can be limiting to users who wish to store more items or want better organisation.
The doors have 110-degree hinges which makes closing and opening them a breeze. However, the overall design can be improved, as unlike some models like Kohler’s Verdara, which allow users to customise left or right hand opening, the positioning of the Westbourne’s doors are fixed – with the side doors opening towards the centre, and the centre door opening to the left.
Additional Features
The Westbourne features an elegant mirrored surface with beveled outer edges, creating an added sense of space to the bathroom. In terms of features, the cabinet is pretty basic, as aside from two shelves adjustable for height, there is no accommodation within for an electrical outlet or magnifying mirror, despite its higher than average price point. Optional pin handles are included.
Ease of Installation
The Westbourne is designed to be surface mounted through its patented Hang ‘n’ Lock fixing bracket. A safe and simple solution, the process is a one-man job, and the level can be adjusted after you’ve drilled the holes. The cabinets can also be recessed, but requires more effort and a considerable amount of DIY knowledge if you’re not employing a renovation crew.
Pros
- Triple door configurations available
- Sturdy material, powder coated to prevent rusting
- Shelves adjustable for height
Cons
- Basic design, no electrical outlet or magnifying mirror
- Fixed door orientation
- Limited shelves
- Pricey
3. KOHLER K-CB-CLW2026SS Aluminum Bathroom Medicine Cabinet with Decorative Silver-Framed Mirror Door
Another offering by Kohler, the brand’s strong reputation ensures that quality and craftsmanship is assured. 
Boasting elegant looks and the functionality to match, the K-CB-CWL2026SS series makes for a great addition to any bathroom, as a beautiful piece of furniture to spruce up your interior, and a handy storage unit with ample space for medicine, toiletries and other items.
Size and Dimensions
The overall dimensions of the cabinet box is 20 inches wide by 26 inches high, with a depth of 5.25 inches. The mirror itself takes up approximately 17 by 23 inches, and the cabinet measures roughly 3 ⅝ inches when recessed. It has a classic single-door configuration.
Design and Material
For those who like framed medicine cabinet designs, this model saves you the hassle of having to shop and install a separate frame, as it comes with one included: an ornate and elegant-looking frame with black and silver details on the edges. The design pairs well with polished nickel bathroom fixtures. Meanwhile, the anodized aluminium construction ensures that the cabinet is rust-free, lightweight but sturdy. It comes with two adjustable tempered glass shelves to easily accommodate items of different heights. The tempered glass shelves make it easier to spot items and adds a clean aesthetic, in addition to being able to hold a good amount of weight.
Additional Features
The cabinet is reversible for a left or right hand swing by simply flipping it over during installation. Aside from the door’s surface, there are also mirrors on the back of the door and interior of the cabinet, providing superior visibility and helping to reflect light to brighten up your interior space. Two-way adjustable hinges offer 108-degree opening capability for easy cabinet access. However, the doors lack a soft-closing function and may slam, which might not make this a suitable choice for households with young children. When opening the door quickly, this also puts strain on the hinges. Another point to note is that the hinges are not very durable, as they are made of plastic.
Ease of Installation
The Kohler is suitable for both surface mount or recessed installation, and comes with mounting hardware for both. For surface mount, the set comes with two side panels for flush mounting. The recessed installation requires a rough opening in the wall of 19 ¼ inches wide by 25 ¼ inches high and 2 ⅝ inches deep. Each purchase is backed by Kohler’s one-year limited warranty.
Pros
- Beautiful frame matches well with nickel fixtures
- Adjustable door swing
- Adjustable tempered glass shelves
- Mirrored interiors
- One year warranty
Cons
- No slow-closing capabilities, slamming doors
- Poor quality hinges
4. HOMFA Multipurpose Medicine Storage Organizer
If you’re strapped for space in a tiny apartment, then the Cabidor Deluxe might just be the answer. Unlike 
traditional medicine cabinets that need to be mounted above a sink or a dresser, the Cabidor Deluxe utilises an often overlooked and wasted space – behind the door. So not only can it be used in the bathroom, but virtually any other space such as dorm rooms, kitchens and bedrooms.
Size and Dimensions
Boasting a tall and slim profile, the Cabidor Deluxe measures 70 x 16 x 4.1 inches, making it an easy fit into small spaces. It has a large storage capacity; equivalent to five standard medicine cabinets. An important thing to note before purchasing is that you need a 3.5 inch (or more) clearance between the hinge and the back wall in order for cabinet to work properly.
Design and Material
The cabinet works along the same principles as a door, pivoting off the hinges, while a metal striker plate and magnet keeps the unit flush with the face of the door. This means that you won’t feel the cabinet swinging, even when opening and closing your door. Buildwise, it can be a bit of a hit and miss, especially when it comes to the magnet which some users have said is too strong to the point that it becomes difficult to open. The cabinet comes in either the classic or the mirrored behind door design, and boasts an oil based enamel finish that looks similar to high-end cabinetry, although there are quality control issues with the construction.
Additional Features
With six adjustable shelves and eight high grade steel retention rods, the Cabidor Deluxe is highly customisable to fit your needs, and is able to store anything from tall shampoo bottles to small soaps, medicine bottles, toiletries, toothbrushes and more. The centre shelf is fixed, but this adjustability means that each item is highly visible and easy to organise. The retention rods are sturdy and help to keep items secured in place. The cabinet is also reversible for right or left-hinged doors.
Ease of Installation
Owing to its design, the Cabidor Deluxe can only be used for surface mount only and cannot be recessed. It works by integrating with the door’s existing hinge hardware, without the need for metal fasteners, so you won’t need to drill or nail. Simply align the hardware with the door hinges, remove and reinsert the cabinet’s hinge pins before attaching the striker plate and magnet with double sided adhesive tape. Shelves and retention rods can then be installed as required.
Pros
- Unique design, tall slim profile provides better than average storage space
- Adjustable, highly customisable shelves
- Retention rods keep items securely in place
- Space saving, utilises space behind door
- Easy installation taps onto door’s existing hinges
Cons
- Needs minimum clearance of 3.5 inches between hinge and back wall or cabinet won’t work properly
- Surface mount only
- Quality control issues
- Magnet latch makes cabinet difficult to open
5. Croydex WC102222AZ Shawdon Double Door Bi-View Cabinet
Croydex’s Shawdon series is identical to its Westbourne design, offering the same look and feel at a slightly 
smaller size. The only difference is the door configuration and spacing, and of course, a more affordable price point.
Size and Dimensions
The Croydex Shawdon measures 30 x 30 inches, with a depth of about 5 inches. It comes in a double door configuration, with one being larger than the other (250 cm by 510 cm). The mirrored doors open outward, creating an illusion of greater space.
Design and Material
Like the Westbourne, the Shawdon is made from powder coated steel which is rust and moisture resistant, yet tough and durable. The shelves are adjustable to fit items of different heights, but again, suffers the same issue as the Westbourne in that there are only two shelves with limited compartments, which may hinder those who want to store additional items or want better organisation. As there are only two doors, they open outwards, and come with 110-degree hinges for convenient opening and closing.
Additional Features
The Shawdon sports beveled outer edges and has basic functions, with no mirrored interior, electrical outlets or magnifying mirror. Optional pin handles are included.
Ease of Installation
Designed to be surface mounted through its patented Hang ‘n’ Lock fixing bracket, the Shawdon is easy to install for those with basic DIY knowledge and do not require an extra helping hand. For those who prefer a recessed style, drilling is required.
Pros
- Sturdy material, powder coated to prevent rusting
- Shelves adjustable for height
Cons
- Basic design
- Limited shelves
6. KOHLER K-CB-CLC1526FS Frameless Aluminum Bathroom Medicine Cabinet
For those who prefer a sleek, modern design that goes well with white or silver bathroom fixtures, Kohler’s K-
CB-CLC1526FS offers a practical and eye-pleasing solution. The basic look pairs well with almost any bathroom interior, while the outwardly compact but still spacious design is a good option for smaller households.
Size and Dimensions
The cabinet measures 15 inches wide by 26 inches high, and has a depth of approximately five inches, which is ample space for your storage needs. The single door configuration is basic but convenient, and can be adjusted to the right or left hand swing by simply flipping the cabinet over during the installation process.
Design and Material
Featuring anodized aluminium construction, the cabinet is rust free and sturdy enough to last for years to come. The inside comes with two adjustable tempered glass shelves, which can be customised to fit items of varying heights. The material also helps to improve visibility when locating items, whilst complementing the cabinet’s interior mirrors. Completing the setup is a durable, chip-free finish. For those who want to put two units together, a ¼ inch gap in between is needed in between them, as the cabinet casing has a lip that juts out slightly over the mirrored area.
Additional Features
The Kohler comes with mirrors on the back of the door and interior back of the cabinet, making it convenient to check your reflection without having to constantly open and close the door. It also provides superior visibility, as the reflecting light brightens up your bathroom space. The frameless mirrored door itself has a beveled edge which is not too sharp, preventing untoward accidents. The door can be opened up to 108 degrees for easy access, and the cabinet is backed by Kohler’s one-year limited warranty.
Ease of Installation
Installation is a breeze as the cabinet is lightweight and easy to put together, weighing just 20 lbs. It can be surface mounted or recessed, and comes with mounting hardware and side mirror kits for surface installation. Recessed medicine cabinet installation requires a rough opening in wall measuring 14 ¼ inches wide x 25 ¼ inches high x 3 ⅝ inches deep. The downside to recessed installation is that the door seems to protrude out a little and it is difficult to get it to lie flush against the wall.
Pros
- Can be adjusted for right and left hand swing
- Mirrored interiors
- Tempered glass shelves are adjustable
- Comes with mounting hardware and side mirror kits for surface mount
- 108-degree hinges
- One-year limited warranty
Cons
- Recessed installation results sometimes results in protruding door
7. Jensen 1459X Bevel Mirror Medicine Cabinet
Jensen is an American brand in the business of producing vanities and other furniture since the 1960s, with a 
product range that offers good design and features that are competitively priced. The Jensen 1459X is a slim and compact solution to smaller spaces; doing away with clutter whilst ensuring that all your items are securely stowed but still easily accessible.
Size and Dimensions
Ideal for small homes and apartments or even studio units, the Jensen 1459X measures 16 inches wide by 26 inches high, with a depth of 4 ¾ inches. This might not seem much for larger households, but provides ample storage for toiletries. The classic design features a single door which can be mounted with left or right hand opening for flexible installation options, to suit your bathroom shape and size.
Design and Material
Featuring a frameless ½ inch beveled mirror door and a drawn steel body, the Jensen 1459X is touted to be treated to be rust resistant, although the build is of average quality, with some users complaining of rust over time. The material is also heat cured with white acrylic paint for a solid finish. Inside, the two steel shelves are adjustable to accommodate different heights, and there are slots to add more shelves for those who require better organisation.
Additional Features
The Jensen 1459X is pretty basic and does not come with interior mirrors or slots for electrical plug points. It does, however, feature continuous piano hinges which make the door easy to open and close. The cabinet comes in an over-pack carton for additional product protection during the shipping process.
Ease of Installation
The Jensen 1459 X can be surface mounted or recessed, to fit snugly into a wall, providing users with full functionality coupled with a low profile. For recessed installation, the wall opening should measure 14 inches wide by 24 inches high and 3.5 inches deep.
Pros
- Compact and slim
- Left or right hand swing
- Beveled edges
- Affordably priced
- Adjustable shelves
- Continuous piano hinges for easy access to items

8. Design House 541367 Ventura Tri-View Medicine Cabinet
Headquartered in Wisconsin, Design House provides affordable home décor products to spruce up living 
spaces. Their Ventura series is ideal for medium to large bathrooms, and features a wooden frame to complement classic interiors, traditional furnishings and granite tops.
Size and Dimensions
The Ventura Tri-View measures 48 inches by 30 inches, but it also comes in several other sizes to fit different spaces, namely 16 x 30 inches, 24 x 30 inches, 30 x 30 inches and 36 x 30 inches. Users can also choose to get single or double door configurations, although the Tri-view comes with three doors. The direction of the door can be changed by flipping the cabinet upside down, but the magnetic door latch has to be moved to the lower end of the cabinet as well.
Design and Material
Most frameless designs are modern and sleek, but the Ventura’s wooden frame oozes class and charm. There are four colour options to choose from, including espresso which is closer to a black shade, honey oak, white or nutmeg oak. The frame is solid wood while the side panels are made from economical particle board, finished in a chestnut glaze with a water resistant coat to protect against the moist environment of a bathroom. Unfortunately, the two shelves are stationary and cannot be adjusted to different heights, but additional shelves can be added for more storage. Meanwhile, oil-rubbed bronze hardware and concealed hinges complement the wood design. Buildwise, the Ventura is not very sturdy and there are many complaints on damage during shipping.
Additional Features
The Ventura is California 93120 compliant and features satin nickel hinges, making it easy to open and close. The interiors are not mirrored.
Ease of Installation
The Ventura Tri-View comes fully assembled and is designed for surface mount installation. Simply hang the cabinet seamlessly to the wall with the included wall mounts and screws. Care should be taken to have one inch set out for the door for it to function properly. The cabinet includes a one-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Pros
- One-year limited warranty
- Various sizes and configurations
- Wood frame in four different colours to match your deco
- Comes fully assembled
Cons
- Interior not mirrored
- Shelves are stationary, non-adjustable
- Flimsy build
- Surface mount only, not for recessed installation
9. Elegant Home Fashions Neal Collection Mirrored Medicine Cabinet
Classic does not necessarily mean dated – as evidenced by Elegant Home Fashions’ Neal Collection, an 
affordable storage solution that looks comparable to more expensive models.
Size and Dimensions
The Neal collection is suitable for small homes, as it measures just 20 x 24 inches overall with a depth of 6.5 inches for the medicine cabinet. The mirror is 12 ¾ inches by 12 ¾ inches, while the three cubby holes below are 5 ½ inches high by 5 inches wide and 5 inches deep.
Design and Material
The unit is divided into the mirrored cabinet compartment, which comes with one adjustable shelf for storing items of varying heights, as well as three cubby holes at the bottom. The mirrored door features decorative grid-work design and beveled molding with a pure-white finish, and pulls open with an acrylic clear crystal door knob. However, owing to its cheap price point, quality and construction is not the best and the cabinet does not last as long as more expensive models. The interior shelf is made of tempered glass for enhanced safety, and can be adjusted to fit items of different heights.
Additional Features
The Neal cabinet comes with door magnet and hinges already pre-hung, which might be difficult to reverse for left handers. By default, the design is made for right handed use. The quick access cubby holes are particularly handy for accessing oft-used items such as soaps, razors or toothbrushes. There is no interior mirror within the cabinet.
Ease of Installation
The cabinet requires some assembly out of the box, and is designed for surface mount use only. It is relatively lightweight at 29.5 lbs and comes with hardware included, with two notched out hangers at the top at the back, as well as anchors if you are not drilling into the studs.
Pros
- Compact and slim, ideal for small homes
- Quick access cubby holes
- Adjustable tempered glass shelf
Cons
- No interior mirrors
- Difficult to orient door swing direction
- Cheap material, not durable
- Requires some DIY knowledge for assembly and installation

10. Jensen 1035P24WHG Cove Single-Door Recessed Mount Frameless Medicine Cabinet
Spice up your bathroom with a simple but sassy design, embodied by Jensen’s Cove medicine cabinet series. 
Tall and slim, it is built as a solution to smaller spaces and is excellent at concealing items, leaving your bathroom looking neat and orderly. The price point is also affordable for the value and convenience that it offers.
Size and Dimensions
Sporting a classic single door design, the mirrored section of the Cove measures 16 x 26 inches, while the interior cabinet has a depth of 4.5 inches. It can be reversed to fit right or left hand configurations.
Design and Material
Due to its recessed installation and frameless design, the Cove looks just like a wall-mounted mirror with a sleek, polished edge when closed. The body is made from rust resistant steel and painted over white ,making it easy to clean with a wipe. Inside the cabinet, users will find three adjustable glass shelves to accommodate items of different heights. The glass material makes it easy to quickly locate your desired items as well.
Additional Features
The Cove is basic and does not have a mirrored interior, but it does have a few nice touches. The mirrored door comes with an innovative rubberized magnet closure that makes contact with the frame of the cabinet, so you won’t have to worry about slamming and noise. The door itself has a 90-degree stop which prevents damage to its hidden piano hinges. The cabinet is backed by a one-year manufacturer’s warranty.
Ease of Installation
The Cove is designed for recessed installation only, and requires a wall opening measuring 14 x 24 inches with a depth of 3.5 inches. The cabinet also requires assembly before mounting.
Pros
- Value for money, well built for price point
- Rubberized magnet closure prevents slamming and reduces noise
- One year manufacturer’s warranty

11. Yaheetech Medicine Cabinets Wooden Bathroom Wall Cabinet with Double Mirror Doors Adjustable Shelf White
Those on a budget can consider Yaheetech’s medicine cabinet – a small but versatile unit that fits not only 
bathrooms, but also places like the kitchen and laundry room. The cabinet does the job for organising toiletries and medicine, and offers decent bang for your buck, considering its low price point.
Size and Dimensions
Overall, the cabinet measures 22.1 x 22.8 x 5.1 inches, with a depth of 4.1 inches. The quick access shelf is roughly 4.7 inches high. As mentioned, this is a rather small cabinet but it should be sufficient storage for personal use or for smaller households.
Design and Material
The Yaheetech works well for those who prefer a more subdued design, as unlike the frameless, seamless designs with large mirrors, which work by reflecting your interiors and giving a sense of added space, the mirrors on this cabinet are fairly small. They can still be used for everyday makeup or shaving. The cabinet itself is made from painted medium-density fibreboard with glass and iron hardware, and comes in a white colour. Buildwise, the quality is cheap so do not expect it to last as long as more expensive cabinets. As the doors open outward, it cannot be flipped to suit left or right hand door configurations. A significant design flaw with some units is that it is difficult to get the double doors to align properly.
Additional Features
The shelves are adjustable to three different heights, namely 5.4, 7.9 and 10.5 inches. The quick access shelf at the bottom makes it convenient to reach for items such as towels, toothbrushes and shavers. Because it is made from MDF boards, the Yaheetech cannot hold too much weight. The cabinet top holds about 13.2 lbs, the tier holds 8.8 lbs while the open shelf holds 13.2 lbs, for a total weight capacity of 40 lbs.
Ease of Installation
The Yaheetech is designed for surface mount only, and has to be assembled before mounting.
Pros
- Affordable
- Adjustable shelves
- Quick access open shelf
Cons
- Small
- Surface mount only
- Flimsy build and cheap material does not hold too much weight
- Some units have defective door alignment

Size and Dimensions
The cabinet measures 25 x 26 inches, which fits medium to large bathrooms. Choose from single or double door configurations, which are reversible for left or right hand opening.
Design and Material
Living up to the Kohler brand name, users can expect quality materials and a solid build, including anodized aluminium construction with a durable rust-free and chip-free finish, as well as metal hinges rather than cheap plastic. Inside, the two glass shelves make it convenient to locate items, and are also adjustable to fit items of different heights.
Additional Features
Like many of Kohler’s designs, the CL series comes with mirrors on the back of the door and interior back of the cabinet, in addition to the full overlay mirrored front door which boasts a ¼ inch beveled edge which creates a sleek, seamless look. Mirrored interiors come in handy as you don’t need to constantly open and close the door to check your reflection, and it also makes your bathroom look more spacious. The door hinges support up 108-degree opening for easy access. The cabinet is backed by Kohler’s one-year limited warranty for manufacturing defects.
Ease of Installation

The hinges are plastic, so care should be taken when opening the door to prolong the cabinet’s lifespan.

with Homfa’s multipurpose medicine cabinet. Perfect for homes with medium to large spaces, the cabinet’s roomy storage area can be assembled on the wall or over the toilet; providing users with extra storage without taking up valuable storage space.
Size and Dimensions
The Homfa measures 22 inches long by 22.8 inches high, with a depth of approximately 5.1 inches. It comes in a double-door configuration, with each mirror measuring 12 by 6.3 inches.
Design and Material
The Homfa’s simple and clean cut design makes it easy to match with various interiors and bathroom fixtures. The cabinet is made from medium density, environmentally friendly fibreboard. The cabinet is complemented by mirrored glass doors and silver metal handle knobs that make it easy to open and close. Meanwhile, the pure white finish protects the fibreboards from moisture and warping that may occur in wet environments such as the bathroom, and the paint is also non-toxic. The surface can be wiped down clean with a cloth, making it easy to clean.
Buildwise, the cabinet is decent but not as solid as wood or aluminium. Although lightweight, MDF is not very sturdy or long lasting, and users should take care not to overload the unit with heavy items. The construction of the doors can also be improved, as the doors don’t close well on some units.
Additional Features
The cabinet features two enclosed shelves and one exposed shelf, with the centre shelf removable to make way for taller items. It does not have interior mirrors. The exposed bottom shelf offers easy access, but it is also small, as it can’t fit a standard roll of toilet paper. However, it should be sufficient for keeping things like soap, tissues, toothbrushes and decorative succulents.
Ease of Installation
The Homfa needs to be assembled out of the box before it can be surface mounted. It does not support recessed installation. The cabinet is not DIY beginner-friendly, as instructions are unclear, some parts are not clearly labeled and the pre-drilled holes do not align in some units.
The cabinet comes with mounting hardware included, such as two heavy duty screws with washers.
Pros
- Affordable price
- Two-in-one storage and mirror cabinet
- Simple, clean design is easy to match with interiors
- Quick access bottom shelf
Cons
- Not easy to install, poor instructions
- Surface mount only
- Not for holding heavy weights
- Quality control issues
- Flimsy construction, doors might not align
- No interior mirrors
15. ChooChoo Bathroom Medicine Cabinet
If you’re looking for a pure storage solution, the ChooChoo Bathroom medicine cabinet is a decent choice. 
Harkening back to traditional designs, the ChooChoo is basic and does not have mirrors, which can be a drawback for those who enjoy two-in-one functionality. If you already have a mirror or another medicine cabinet, however, this makes for a handy addition to your bathroom.
Size and Dimensions
The cabinet measures 24 inches high by 21.2 inches wide, with a depth of 8.8 inches, which is deeper than most medicine cabinets on the market. It boasts two doors that swing outwards on each side.
Design and Material
Made from low-emission P2 grade medium density fibreboard and coated in a water-based paint, the cabinet is fairly study and resistant against moisture. The classic white finish looks elegant, complemented by sleek lines that are easy to match with all types of decor. However, users should exercise care when handling the cabinet, as the finish scuffs easily. The material also has a chemical smell out of the box, which needs to be outgassed. Utilise the two adjustable shelves to fit your storage needs, making room as you see fit for taller shampoo bottles or smaller items.
Additional Features
The ChooChoo cabinet is fairly basic, as it does not come with any mirrors. It does, however, have doors that open up wide, up to 180 degrees, rather than the standard of 90 or 108 degrees, which makes it easier to retrieve items.
Ease of Installation
The cabinet requires some assembly, but includes clear assembly instructions to guide users. If you have some DIY knowledge, it is fairly easy to install with a secure-mount hanging system using screws with anchors, which are included with the cabinet. A plus side of the ChooChoo is that it can even be used as a floor cabinet if you do not wish to mount it.
Pros
- Wide angle doors
- Adjustable shelves
- Water resistant
- Classic finish
Cons
- Very basic, no mirrors
- Chemical smell when unboxed=
- Finish scuffs
