Need some advice. Single or double bowl for kitchen sink?
Comments (40)Something seems to be missing in EVERY thread about Single vs. Double Bowl sinks. Large single sinks have the space for large items but lack the versatility of having two bowls. Double bowl sinks, regardless of the ratio of the bowls, just aren't big enough for a lot of items. But wait, you can have the best of both worlds IF you have a little space. When planning our kitchen remodel/expansion my wife and I got into the age old one bowl vs. two bowl argument. Our old kitchen had a Kohler Executive Chef double bowl sink. The larger bowl was not big enough for big stuff so I wanted a single bowl - she wanted a double bowl, so here is what I did. I had our KD order a 54" wide, quad door sink base (Medallion) and I put a Blanco Diamond Super Single Bowl (33" X 22") Silgranit Sink (440194) on the left and a Blanco Precis Medium Bowl (13" X 18") Silgranit Sink (440144) on the right. I separated the two sinks by 5" to allow sufficient strength for the granite "Bridge" between the two sinks. I also had 5 groves cut into the "Granite Bridges to allow water to flow between the sinks in the unlikely event someone left the water running in one of the sinks. While it does take some space and a little imagination to accommodate this arrangement I believe it is the best solution to the one vs. two bowl dilemma - we simply LOVE it. Just a comment about the Blanco Silgranit sinks - I cannot ever see us going back to a Stainless Steel or Cast Iron sink - Blanco Silgranit sinks are IMHO the beat sinks available today....See MoreHelp find solid surface 30" single bowl sink
Comments (2)Blanco doesn't know what it's talking about. Sink manufacturers don't go for function, they go for not getting phone calls that a big fat plumber hand can't get between the sink and the cabinet side to tighten their clips. You can easily strap your Blanco Super Single in place with a Sink Strap from Regent Stone Products or a Hercules Universal Sink Harness from Braxton Bragg. The sink is only 32" wide; your cabinet is 33". Plenty of room....See MorePlease help - Need single-basin stainless sink, 36 inch cabinet
Comments (6)The lower the number the higher the quality so 16 is better than 18. Without being snarky, there are a vast quantity of sinks you could choose from. Elkay and Franke are high quality so you couldn't go wrong with one from their lines. You haven't stated a budget but I assume that you would find a sink made by one of these companies within your budget. I believe that a satin finish is easier to maintain than a higher gloss finish....See Morewhich stainless steel sink brand is best for a single bowl, about 30"
Comments (5)What is your budget? You could spend $250 or $2500. I recommend Kraus sinks. A lot of bang for the buck, great reviews on this forum and on sites like Amazon and Overstock. Often when you get a more famous brand name sink like Blanco or Franke you are paying a lot for the name, but if the sink is one of their lower-priced ones, they are not make in Switzerland or Germany either....See Morebreezygirl
