Schock-Houzer Granite Sink vs. Blanco Silgranit
Comments (40)I've visited this thread several times and it's interesting that it is still fairly active. I'm looking at the Cristadur waterfall 150 in Bronze. Wayfair carried them a few months ago with good prices but when I checked last night, there were no Schock or Houzer sinks listed on their site. I have found a supplier from Germany on eBay, his listings are rather obscure and you have to dig deep to find them. He carries the entire line including vintage models and colors; GREAT prices with a flat $145 shipping. I currently have a Swanstone in black that drove me crazy when it was new with water marks and looking dry, until I wiped it down with coconut oil a couple of years ago and I've not touched it again. It now wipes down and is cleaned continually from just washing dishes and looks brand new. I'm looking at Schock over Blanco for my remodel in a different house due to the unique look of the waterfall, but I'm worried that it might suffer from being less than utilitarian. They have a matching 15" prep sink which I plan to install as well. Anyone have any real experience with the waterfall design or Schock for that matter?...See MoreBlanco or Franke Granite Sink?
Comments (1)I purchased the Blanco Silgranite II Diamond sink in Cafe Brown color. It's the small D-shaped bowl as I wanted a small sink to maximize countertop space. It hasn't been installed yet so can't comment any further other than to say that it looks beautiful! I purchased it on amazon for $260; great deal compared to other retailers. Packaging was really secure....See MoreBlanco sink to go with my granite
Comments (19)Thanks, Alwaysfixin! I am trying to put my order in today. I want equal bowls or 1 and 3/4 bowls, I prefer the Diamond line as it is a little softer looking and less clinical than the Precis. Either of these sizes will be fine for me, it will come down to availability, really, at the places I call. I also doublechecked with our plumber that these deeper sinks will fit with the pipes, the disposal etc, because we had a shallow 70s doublesink. I have never had a single bowl, and grew up with a system that I adopted at my own house: Dirty dishes go in the right sink. The left sink is always to be left open for prep, making coffee or filling a pot of water to start dinner. We are a family of 5, with sports and other activities keeping us on the go, so I cannot always have an immaculate kitchen. For us, this method keeps the chaos down especially on busy days, until we can unload and load the dishwasher, which we always run daily and sometimes 2x a day....See MoreCalling all Blanco Silgranit owners-Can you answer 5 questions for me?
Comments (33)I had a white Silgranit sink in my last house, we moved out three months ago. Installed it in 2007. First one cracked upon installation. Second one cracked upon installation. Plumbing supply had someone from Silgrant contact us, he determined my builder was NOT at fault. Finally the third sink tolerated installation. After 14 years we ended up with three small chips at the drain. I have no idea when they happened. Sink was a bear to clean, stained easily. Ultimately we ended up using Soft Scrub with Bleach, which they do NOT recommend, but it was the only thing that worked. (It did not appear to damage the sink in any way, and we used it for at least ten years.) At the time it was one of the biggest sinks available, which is why I got it, and I always did love all that space! But that was the only thing good about it. I would never recommend one, and will certainly never get one again. Nicole...See MoreRelated Professionals
