[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned objects, a basin assembly in accordance with the present invention comprises a hollow cabinet. A main basin with large size is located at a top of the cabinet. A main drain pipe connects with a bottom of the main basin. A main faucet is arranged at the top of the cabinet and neighboring the main basin. A main supply pipe connects with a bottom of the main faucet. A door is pivotably assembled on a middle of a front of the cabinet. An auxiliary basin with small size is fixed on the door. An auxiliary drain pipe is arranged at a bottom of the auxiliary basin and joints the main drain pipe. An auxiliary faucet is arranged adjacent the auxiliary basin and joints an auxiliary supply pipe for providing water for the auxiliary basin. The auxiliary supply pipe communicates with the main supply pipe.

[0010] The main faucet and the auxiliary faucet are mechanical faucet or electrical faucet.

[0011] The basin assembly further comprises an adjusting device, which includes two fastening plates vertically fixed on the door. The fastening plates define a plurality of holes spaced the same distance from each other. A bracket is anchored at the holes and has a profile relatively larger than that of the auxiliary basin for supporting the auxiliary basin.

[0012] The basin assembly further comprises a positioning device, which includes a plurality of hooks and a plurality of hanging plates. The hooks are fixed on the door and the cabinet, respectively. The hanging plates clasp the hooks for positioning the door at different angles with respective to the cabinet.
