Right at your crotch...........
I build them at 32"
If the vanity is for a master BR I make them at 34-36", otherwise 31-32"

It's the first floor vanity by the kitchen. Customer has 29" and she wants it "taller". I was suggesting 34" to the top of the countertop. Is that a little too high?“The richest genius, like the most fertile soil, when uncultivated, shoots up into the rankest weeds..” – Hume

It might be for kids.
If she wants it that tall then I'd make it 34" just let her know that children may have some difficulty.

Here's another thought. Top mounted basin on existing vanity would give higher sink without replacing vanity...probably need a new top though.

Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
<vanity height>
Not to be confused with "the height of vanity"
