Bar/Prep faucet vs 'real' kitchen sink faucet.
Comments (9)"My concern is that it Would be very annoying to not have enough room to wash your hands without them bumping the back of the sink." Well, it depends on the particular model. Some "regular size" faucets are smaller in scale than a prep sink faucet in a different model. You've probably noticed that, like many things, faucets have generally been "Supersized" in recent years. In any event, most "prep sink size" faucets are only a bit smaller that the "regular" size in the same model. Here's a picture of my prep sink size Ladylux in my main sink, which is 25 inches interior width. I have 6 inches of clearance between the back of the sink and the water flow, so bumping the back of the sink or faucet is not an issue at all. There is also more than sufficient spread even without using the pull down feature. Note that I also tested the "bar sink" size of the same faucet, and that one looked a bit small to me given the overall scale of the sink and kitchen. Sorry for the mid-construction pic, but I thought this showed the prep sink size faucet in context of the scale of the rest of the kitchen. Bottom line: pay close attention to the spec sheets of the faucet you're contemplating, and make sure the clearance from the back won't be an issue....See MoreNeed a prep faucet to match Rohl/ Perrin & Rowe Bridge Faucet
Comments (2)I've got the same set up. I've got the Shaw's farm sink with the prep sink in the island. (I just bought the house.) The previous owner installed the Whitehaus Vintage III with two different spouts/spigots. While the bases of the faucets are exactly the same size, the spouts are different shapes. You might try that approach. There are pictures below. I am having to replace the Whitehaus cartridges because of a slow drip on both faucets. They are 10 years old. At least they are available. I spent hours trying to figure out what brand and design that had been installed. If it had been me, I would have selected a different arrangement. I prefer the single sprayer with a soap dispenser arrangement. The two separate hot and cold controls are extra motions. With the cross handles, I can never remember which way to turn them to turn them off. The lever handles might be better. The Shaw's sink doesn't drain well. It requires the use of the sprayer arm every time I do something. It's very deep and hard on your back. It's pretty, but I would rather have my old Kohler Strive single bowl with a grid. I do like the fact that the drain is in the corner. The ceramic finish seems to be holding up to time and use. At this point in life, I don't think anyone builds a good faucet. I long for the days when you could just stick a new washer in the faucet. I might suggest saving my money and buying something cheaper than the Rhol, Perrin and Rowe. Kohler, Moen and Delta actually have good warranties and stand behind them. Everyone else seems to be a reseller. Pretty, but flawed. This is the main sink faucet This is the prep sink The pictures are different finishes. As I said, maybe different spouts/spigots. Good luck with your decision....See MoreNeed help finding a prep/bar faucet to match Rohl/Perrin&Rowe bridge
