Using this basin is easy. Just connect the mixer to the tap hole according to your preference (left or right). The basin is great for small bathrooms, so place it where it fits best. When it comes to maintenance, the self - cleaning glazed surface means you don't have to scrub hard. Just use a mild cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe it down regularly. Make sure to check the overflow regularly to prevent blockages. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the high - gloss white finish.
