Under mount Rectangle sink, any recommendations?

14 years ago

I am doing a 67" wide vanity in the master bath. I am looking at using 2 rectangular under mount ceramic sinks. I am using rain forest brown marble for the vanity top.

I thought an off white bisque would look great with the brown marble top.

My tub is a bisque in color.

Does anyone have any advice as far as what brand of sinks they have had good luck with? The depth of the sink?

We have always had round, and though we would change the shape up a bit.

I have just about 22" in the cabinet for width.

I used this one (Miky by Nameeks in the Scarabeo line) because it is 15.8 inches x 12 inches. It worked well is my 22 inch wide vanity. 6 inces deep and that is deep enough I find. The base price is for white which I got, but it looks like you can use the color "Pergamon" and double the price to about $600 (!). I really like the sink. It's Italian and for European sinks my Italian countertop installer told me the overflow is in the back under the faucet not in the front like they are in the US. This is the photo from the website....I haven't taken pix since I'm not done yet.

I used the Kohler Archer sink, which is a rectangle with a slight curve to the front, like a very fat capital D. It costs about $90 at HD, and I don't know if it comes in any colors besides white.

I have a Simple Human under cabinet paper towel holder in the laundry room. If I didn't have under cabinet lights in the kitchen I probably would have used one there too. It fits both of your criteria ... well-designed and easy to use. Here is a link that might be useful: Simple Human paper towel holder

Using a reveal with an under-mount sink to create a "ledge" sink.

Not advised to create a ledge. You physically can, but now you depend on silicon to keep things water tight. If you keep a zero reveal or an overhang, then water is less likely to accumulate on the sink flange (Which is used to create the ledge). The silicone then can stay intact longer, and not be needed as the primary water guard. Often the biggest problem we see with ledge sinks is with the installation. Some issues we have been told is with accessories not fitting. However, this is easily avoidable with two best practices: 1. The fabricator should always follow the template 2. Once the hole is cut for the sink, dry fit the accessories to ensure smooth sailing from the client. If you like ledge sinks then check this new release: Kraus Kore

“would you have a preference when it comes to undermount kitchen double sinks?” My preference is first that it be a single bowl sink. Next that it be at least 33” wide - how big is your cabinet base for your sink? Next that it be 16 gauge stainless steel, not the thinner 18 gauge. And finally, that it have an offset drain. This is all to say that in my opinion the sink’s configuration is more important than the brand name. I feel that Elkay, Kraus and Blanco are all good brands that make good sinks with the aforementioned features.

I have both the Kohler Kathryn and Ladena in my house. I like them both, but I do prefer the lines of the Kathryn.

My thanks to you all. I picked the archer by kohler, it was 119 for my color of biscuit. I like the curved front of the archer. It will fit my space and give me plenty of counter top. Thanks again!
