Managing a small bathroom comes with its fair share of challenges, from maneuvering within the space to the never-ending storage conundrum. If you're on the hunt for solutions that will make your small bathroom work better, streamlined options will optimize your floorspace. Lowe's has a promising find that will easily fit within the margins of your small bathroom: HomCom Rolling Narrow Bathroom Cabinet. Retailing for $70.99, this narrow but functional rolling cabinet takes up an impressively small amount of space. It measures 20.5 inches long by 6 ¼ inches wide by 28 ¼ inches tall and is fitted with four rolling casters. Two of the sets of wheels are enabled with locks to prevent any unwanted movement. As far as actual storage goes, there's an open shelving portion immediately under the top of the cabinet for easy access to items that you need on a regular basis. 

There are also two drawers underneath, each with plentiful space inside for concealed storage of toilet paper rolls or cleaning supplies, and anything else you want to keep tucked away. At the time of writing, customers have given this product an impressive 4.8-star average from nearly 20 reviews. Buyers praise the cabinet's easy-to-assemble design, as well as the reasonable price point. As one five-star review on Lowe's website states: "Exactly what I needed for my tiny bathroom. I struggled to find a storage solution for my new tiny house bathroom, until stumbling on this." Looking for more space-saving, stylish bathroom storage? IKEA has an alternative you may want to consider, too.

Other applications for this rolling cabinet

In the event that your bathroom has enough storage space already, you can still utilize this product in other corners of the house. The small footprint would make it easy to slide in between a washing machine and dryer, for example. The shelves and drawers could then be stocked with your laundry essentials, like bottles of detergent, dryer sheets, wool dryer balls, clothespins, and the like. However, it's worth noting that this piece is made from MDF, which helps keep its price low but also makes it more susceptible to moisture-related damage. As one four-star reviewer warned, "Time will tell how durable [the] finish and cabinet are in bathroom use. Since MDF absorbs water, we will see." 

To maintain its condition as long as possible, avoid placing wet or damp items on top of it, which can result in the material swelling. Additionally, particularly muggy bathrooms would benefit from a dehumidifier to limit ambient humidity. For inspiration, here are the top 8 affordable dehumidifiers you can buy on Amazon, based on user reviews. If the all-white appearance is too stark for your liking, there are a couple of easy ways to personalize this piece. One customer proudly shared, "I got it white and painted it black. It looks so perfect!" For a more ornate-looking piece, ditch the paint can and give your cabinet a budget-friendly upgrade with patterned contact paper, for a more unique appearance.
