I have the 25" version of the one below and I am very pleased with it. I like the soundproofing, rinse grid, strainer basket, etc. It is made in China FWIW. The flange is completely finished and the instructions of mine say it can be drop-in or undermount and I assume the one below is the same (check though).

If you do a search at ikeafans you'll find several solutions. Of course, most people just notch out the cabinet sides, but even if you don't want to do that you'll find info there on sinks that will fit. The two most active posters there at the moment are double bowl sink fans--always pushing what they call the "daughter sink", but if you read the "Is this sink too big thread" there are some suggestions for single bowl sinks, too.

It seems like bridge faucets are popular with farmhouse sinks too, but if you want a pulldown, you'll probably have to go another direction. If you like the Vinnata, you might also want to look at the Whitehaus Metrohaus 591. That's th faucet we have, and I got it over the Vinnata because it was slightly shorter and had a nice reach. The lines are just a little simpler too. I'm posting a link to a picture I found, but I bought mine from Home & Stone off ebay. I don't know anything about the site where I found the photo.

Our apron front sink is (interior dimensions) 30" wide x 18" long x 9.75" deep and it feels positively brobdingnagian! I cannot imagine a 36" wide sink -- actually, I think I'd resent the six inches of counterspace I couldn't have in order to have that Olympic-sized swimming pool of a sink. You'll probably have grown up with this (Japanese mom), but my husband keeps a bin in the sink for holding dishes. (Only he does this as I find it disgusting and think that's why we have a dishwasher: I scrape off food and throw in the dishwasher -- I don't believe in rinsing / washing before putting in a dishwasher, and every pot and pan I use goes in the dishwasher too. Hand washing is not for me!) Another Japanese thing: I wanted to tell you about our (vegetarian) gyoza. We make the filling with smashed tofu, vegetarian sausage (GimmeLean bulk "sausage"), ginger, water chestnuts and veggies and I am telling you it's wonderful! We eat a ton at a time too (your Thanksgiving story). Hope all is well for you!
