ᐅ Bathroom accessories...

We have “moved into” our new home just a few days ago, and among the remaining tasks here, bathroom accessories are definitely on the list.
Over the weekend, I quickly visited the bathroom departments of some major home improvement chains to get inspired by the designs of toilet brush holders, toilet paper holders, and towel rails.
I was a bit taken aback by the prices 🙁 (until now, I had only browsed the paint, electronics, and wall plug sections).

Our faucet design is angular and shiny chrome-plated. My husband prefers the brushed stainless steel look… I like it too, but… hmm...
Over 60 € (about 65 USD) is somewhat acceptable, but with accessory prices like these, I don’t mind checking out reuter and similar online stores, though the overwhelming variety can be a bit much. Also, I’m getting stingy 😉

Do you have any online recommendations for me?
What kind of accessories do you use?
In the “old” house, I wasn’t very particular—a single rail from wall to wall held six toilet paper rolls. Now, the walls don’t allow that, and I want everything to match—also to look elegant—and of course, be easy to maintain 😎

Best regards,
Yvonne

P.S. “Inserting graphics” probably isn’t possible here anymore????

Do you all usually buy online or in-store? I always need to have the parts in my hands. Is the Zack Fresco series made of solid stainless steel?

Toilet paper on the windowsill, a plastic toilet brush for the meantime, and a few ceramic pieces from Budny or Tchibo.

Our large bathroom mirror isn’t even hung up yet 🙁 🙁 🙁 instead, we’ve been busy working in the garden...

*laugh* That sounds very familiar to me. It looks exactly the same in our place— toilet paper on the windowsill, and soap dispenser and toilet brush with holder from Tchibo.

From the toilet paper roll on the windowsill? Sure, as soon as I’m back online on my MacBook 😎

Ordered Zack Fresco online and found it stylish and solid!

Since I hadn’t looked into this topic before and was curious about how Zack Fresco looks, I googled him. Quite stylish.

A small additional tip: I noticed that it’s worth comparing prices here as well.
For example, the toilet brush holder costs about 15 euros more at Reuter than on Amazon. On idealo, you can even find it a bit cheaper (also excluding shipping costs).
With the simple towel holder, it’s the other way around. 😉
Every little bit adds up.

@Haushaltswelt: Apparently, you are connected to the Polish company; otherwise, you wouldn’t be spreading this advertising in all your posts (currently still 2). Why should anyone here have to deal with Polish contract law?
