While a bathroom vanity doesn't need to be flush with the side wall, it’s best to install it that way where possible. Achieving a flush fit can enhance aesthetics and create a cohesive look, plus it will help conceal and safeguard your plumbing.

Additionally, consider factors like plumbing and room layout when deciding on the vanity's positioning relative to the side wall.
