Comments (13)GW has very nice eyes!! Yes is the space between the fridge and the cabinet above. So I ask to raise the fridge as much as possible and see if they will need a panel. jakabedy, no the quartz was apart. and the switch plates was out of my control, but I told the client to a least ask the GC to put outlets the same.. she has some round some square. Usually I close the front between fridge and above cabinet but I leave open on the top/back to have air flow to the fridge. The owner just move in so still in process do decorate and they working to fix next to the kitchen, but they have a fabulous vintage table and I didn't take pictures. The floor is oak and is new. the finish was just bleached and then have a water base varnish with grey paint. Here in Chicago we have a little gem where you can go with a sample and they will match. I also take the stain from them for my showroom.. very nice dark grey... I love it. I'm tired of yellow/red oak. :-)...See MoreKitchen sinks and drain board help please
Comments (17)As for the Kohler prolific, I don't know how this would work for us since we need to have the draining trays in place which would cut into the work space of the sink bowl. We run the dish washer in the night. So most dishes and plates will be put into the DW right after use. But the cups, mugs and cutlery tends to be used and rinsed and goes on the draining rack all the times, large pans are washed and goes on the rack too. Since the Prolific has the 3 ledges and comes with 2 drying racks, you get more draining room than just the width of the rack. With the racks to the side, the sink is still 21.5" wide, and it is very easy to use to clean things on one side, while other things are drying on the racks. I don't find that it cuts into the workspace at all. I have even cleaned large pans on the bottom of the sink while things were drying on the racks higher up. I can move the rack to the middle of the sink and dry a big pan there if necessary. It is very flexible and big at 33". You might try to see it in a showroom so you can see if it could work for you. If you don't like that sink, I think there are some posts here talking about how people fit the Stages sink into their cabinets and that might help you figure out how to use one of the larger sinks with an integrated drainboard. I agree with Stan that you need to figure that all out carefully before you do anything....See MoreJust want a modern SS kitchen sink with good reviews!
Comments (3)Thanks, it's on my list. I am a little nervous about it being a pain draining food bits with the flat bottom and grid. That's about the only thing I see people complaining about, but we don't eat out so this will get a lot of use. It has quite a few positive reviews on another site so I may have to give it a go.

Comments (17)Most appliances manufacturers seem to use some sort of brushed finish. And in practice, the differences between manufacturers tend to be not overly glaring. Sinks are a bit more of a wildcard. There are a couple of different finishes that you can get. But then, a sink is in a very different place, and accumulates scratches with use anyway. I personally don't feel it has to 100% match the look of the stainless appliances. If you are really anal, you could always have your contractor redo all the grain with a sander and some 3M pads. It's labor intensive though and does take some amount of practice to get a uniform finish. Most people wouldn't really go down this route -- and if you do, make sure you get samples of their workmanship first; it's easy to make things worse instead of better....See MoreOOTM_Mom
