Buying solid wood linen cabinets has several advantages apart from ultimate convenience. Tall, narrow linen cabinets made of solid wood brings about a wealth of functionality and provides your home the most stylish storage space for bathroom essentials, towels, and even cleaning products.

As selecting the right cabinet can have a positive impact on a bathroom's aesthetics, you need to plan right and follow the tips we'll list below. It's not hard to create an inviting, soothing bathroom environment, especially if you utilize the advice of experts.

What color linen cabinet should you choose?

The color of your linen cabinet must be considered. As a general rule of thumb, a lighter cabinet will reflect light; therefore, you will be able to make your space appear bigger and brighter using only a light-colored linen cabinet. This is really helpful for small and dark bathrooms. As for dark-colored cabinets (painted and lacquered), they absorb light which means they create a space that looks smaller.

You may be one of the few people who have massive bathrooms. If so, then consider yourself lucky and don't be afraid of going for linen cabinets that have colors which are a contrast to the color/s of your existing bathroom furniture and fixtures. You can even choose a color that complements the color of your bathroom walls. Doing so will break the expansive space. For a smaller bathroom, however, it's best to go with a similar color to ensure the room's look is unified.

What exactly is solid wood?

Solid wood, also referred to as "ordinary lumber," isn't what most people think it is. It's not wood that's cut directly from a tree then turned into a linen cabinet or any solid wood furniture for that matter. Modern commercial wood still goes through processing and treatment.

Basically, solid wood means the wood isn't hollow – it's a solid wooden surface. It's important that you pay attention to what we're saying as most cabinet manufacturers claim they're using solid wood when, in fact, they're using plywood as a core. It's completely legal for manufacturers to say their cabinets are constructed out of solid wood just as long as the exposed surfaces are made of any type of solid wood.

Be careful. You'd want to ask a manufacturer questions if you are serious about getting solid wood linen cabinets. Ask, "what's the center of the material made of?" If you hear keywords like "plywood" or "veneer," then it's a dead giveaway!

Solid wood is known for having the ability to repair easily. It's also water and fire resistant. Solid wood is often unmasked with paint or lacquer as the grain will just show through the applied paint. If you want a painted wood, MDF is your better option which is a great material if you have kids as it is cheap and easily replaceable.

Bonus tip: Don't forget the reason why you're buying a solid wood linen cabinet: for its function. Consider how much storage space you need as your cabinet should meet your needs. You don't want a cabinet that will sacrifice storage space for beauty.
