I need to get input on bathroom undermount oval sinks?

8 years ago

I ordered a 48" double vanity and doing 2 sinks. they need to be smaller. I am looking at the Mirabelle sinks which are 12x15. Does anyone have any experience with them? or others to recommend? i don't like Kohler… Thank-you!

What's wrong with Kohler? I almost got the Kohler Caxton for a bathroom remodel but then went with another shape (square AS). We did put the Kohler Ladena (x2) in our master bath and they have been great (not the shape you want).

I have the Kohler Caxton in the medium size. My fabricator stocks them because they are flawless. He got fed up with other porcelain sinks.

Thank you - I love the shape of these fixtures but they all appear to be stainless or chrome. I've scrapped the glass sink idea and have a vitreous china one ordered along with the granite. I don't have room for a 19 in. round sink and that seems to be the norm. My vanity will be only about 20 inches from front to back. It's a tiny room so want to keep things in scale as best I can,

I have an odd question about undermount sink in bathroom
Q

Callieandkarin, yes my boys are big and DD#1 has a male and he's even larger. My girls are a little more petite in the 15 lb range. I love ragdolls, once you have them you can never go back. They are so dog like that they were more of a dog than my actual dog,. LOL They used to beat the dog in run and fetch the ball and she was annoyed to say the least. Of course she was elderly by then but she loved her cats. So gentle, affectionate, loyal and clever. Are your cats crazy about drinking water from the tap? The girls used to turn on the tap every day to help themselves to fresh water drips- I had to wrap towels and stuff around all my taps for a long time to break them of this "habit". they also are constantly going around the house and opening drawers - or maybe that's the resident ghost? Kren pa - yes I think they do love the sink because it's cool. I have 4 cats - that's my limit - so sometimes they go into the bathtub or shower.

undermount bathroom sink gap

The problem is that the sink has an eased inside edge and not perfectly angled flat to fit against the underside of the stone. The fabricator should have cut the sink hole larger, to give more of a reveal of the sink edge, so that it contacted the stone where it is flat. This could be exacerbated by it not being a true undermount sink that is attempting to be undermounted. Or, it could be a hand made sink that isn't flat and can't be properly mounted without a gap. It's difficult to say exactly without viewing the installation in person.

bathroom counter - undermount sink?
Q
Comments (17)
We have three bathrooms. Master has about 9' of counter with one sink, hall bath has two 5' counters, one with a sink. Then another 2' wide counter with a sink. Powder room has a 3' counter with sink. This is through a mod home builder so I'm not sure if I have other options. I wonder if I should just go with the basic counter with drop in and replace later as we can. Of course then, it will probably never get replaced....sigh.

I'd recommend that size for face-washing, especially if children will be using it. If you'll only be hand-washing, the smaller size might be okay. Badgergirl posts here often and has shown photos of her smaller sinks in her 60" vanity. You might try searching for past sink size and double sink posts.

If you use the smaller sink, try not to have an overhang of the countertop. My fabricator does a slight one because he says no porcelain sink is perfectly oval, so the overhang hides that. But he said the Kohlers are the most consistent.
