BlancoPerforma Cascade?

14 years ago

Anyone have the BlancoPerforma Cascade Anthracite Super Single Undermount sink- 440064 / 515-555? That's the one with the small partition. If anyone has it, I'd love to hear what you think of it. Photos, anyone?

I love mine! I do not have a prep sink in my small kitchen and was worried about just having a single sink. There isn't anything that won't fit in there. I like the smaller part for rinsing and draining recyclables, for rinsing vegetables and I make the kids rinse silverware in it so it doesn't accidentally go down drain. It is also a breeze to clean with Dawn dish soap and if need be a little barkeepers friend. I have the biscuit but I thought I would post anyway.

I almost bought this. Have been flip-flopping - really like a standard double bowl, but now have need to soak a large one-piece grill grate that will be on my new Viking rangetop.

The Cascade's large bowl was just a couple of inches too small for that.

So, I just bought the big square Blanco Super Single with the hanging colander. That will allow me to place huge items in the sink, yet still use it sort of as a "double bowl" with the hanging colander.

I don't know if you have checked out the Elkay e-granite sinks, they make some nice looking ones too. I really liked the look of their large single bowl, but decided the curve that makes it look so nice, made the center width too narrow :(

I got the medium bowl. It goes in next week. The low divide was exactly what we were looking for. I'm not sure what the advantage of the Super Single Bowl would be over the medium bowl. One thing I'm going through is the width (front-to-back) of my countertop to fit the sink. It gets quite cramped -- we are thinking of lengthening our countertop by 1 - 1.5 inches to give more room for the faucet and other accessories. I think the Super Single Bowl is 0.5 inches wider than the medium bowl -- it might be an issue (at least you need to consider the type of faucet you get so you don't hit your hand against the backsplash).

PhoneLady -your posts were one of the reasons I decided to get it! Rebunky - the counters are absolute black granite honed. The faucet is the Delta Cassidy - the taller one (there are two versions). Aries61 - I think the cabinet is bumped out an inch. I was worried it wouldn't fit when I found out it was a 34" cabinet & the sink calls for a 36" base, but they didn't have to cut into the top. The cabinets are custom, made by a company called Prevo in Ephrata, PA. And since my ipad likes to rotate pictures, I'm posting another, normal picture here!

2 part question about Silgranite II Cascade Perform

I just took a look at mine and although I am not a plumber I would not think you could add a drain to the small sink side (there is only 1 drain and it is in the upper right hand corner of the large bowl which is on the left side). It does appear you could turn the sink around so the small bowl is on the left but your drain on the large bowl would be in the right hand corner. I have the blanco performa cascade super single bowl in siligranite II. Mine is truffle. It comes with nice ss basket for small sink and I would get the ss sink grid and cutting board.

Sink too big?
Q

This is a great thread, and is making me feel better! I'm looking at the exact same sink and was wondering/worrying about it being too big. My current sink is only about 3 inches larger that the larger portion of the sink so I was worried about the size, but then again, my sink is kind of small and I'd want something bigger if it will fit. I love the idea of this sink!!! My family tends to leave dishes on the counter because we only have the one sink and if the dishes are in the sink you can't fill a pitcher with water, rinse veggies, etc. I'm looking forward to having a sink to put dirty dishes in and a sink free for washing veggies, filling pitchers, etc. Also it will be great for washing dishes by hand!! I am still debating whether to put the disposal on the larger side (where the dirty dishes would mostly be) or the smaller side. Where did you order your sink??

Woohoo! I have been asking about this sink for weeks and you're the first person to respond that owns one. Yours looks lovely with that granite and backsplash. Is that a slightly negative reveal? Does water drain well through the little channel between the two parts? Would you mind terribly if I asked you to measure the larger basin at the bottom? The Blanco specs don't give those measurements.

I am so excited to actually see this sink!

Linda,

This is the only other photo that I've been able to find.

Lindalp - we have ours on order - should be installed very soon. Cabinets arrive next week. I joke is it is like training wheels for those of us who grew up with 2 sinks and aren't quite ready to take the plunge - plus I don't have room for a prep sink, so the elevated area can be used as needed and stay a bit cleaner.

Jamrock also installed one but is super busy moving back into her house after a year!! Jamrock put her faucet in the middle.

MaryBeth - can you post a picture showing your faucet placement - I am leaning towards putting faucet at the divider (the way you did) vs in the center.
Also what is the center to center reach of your faucet? I am putting in a Waterstone and I think the reach is around 8 inches
