TYPES OF KITCHEN SINKS
Importance of Kitchen Sinks
The sink is the most important and usable workplace in the kitchen. Near about 60% of time spent in the kitchen is spent at the sink. After all, food preparation, washing and cutting are important tasks which can’t be completed in kitchen without a sink. These are the tasks which can’t be accomplished in kitchen with any other kitchen appliances.
Kitchen Sink Types
•Double Bowl Kitchen Sinks• Farmhouse / Single Bowl Kitchen Sinks• Topmount Kitchen Sinks• Trough Kitchen Sinks•Undermount Kitchen Sinks
Double Bowl Kitchen Sinks
Double bowl sinks have a partition that separates them into two sections. A rectangular shaped sink is most commonly used sink in kitchens. Double-bowl sinks are handy because they let you perform two tasks soaking and rinsing at the same time. Note that the narrower sections of a double bowl sink may not fit large pots or roasters.
Farmhouse / Single Bowl Kitchen Sinks
These sinks are also known as apron front, farmhouse sinks usually have a deep single bowl with the faucet installed in the countertop or wall. This stylish choice can provide a traditional kitchen look, and stainless steel versions can work well with modern designs. But they're expensive and require a special cabinet, and water can drip on and damage the cabinet.
Topmount Kitchen Sinks
These kitchen sinks are also called drop-in and self-rimming, the sink is dropped in above the counter with the lip overlapping the countertop. Top-mount sinks work with any countertop material and are relatively simple to install, so they're a good choice for a tight budget. But a top-mount sink can detract from the look of a beautiful countertop and grime can build up around the lip of the sink.
Trough Kitchen & Bar Sinks
These are best for use as prep or bar sinks. They're narrow and long, from 8 to 14 inches wide and up to 50 inches long. But trough sinks are expensive and more fun than functional.
Under Mount Kitchen Sink
Rather than being lowered onto the counter, under mounted sinks are raised into place from below. Under mount sinks provide a sleek look and easier cleanup since they sit slightly below the surface of the counter, so you can wipe spills and crumbs from the countertop directly into the sink. Under mounted sinks are expensive to buy and install, and should be used with a waterproof countertop.
