We have a single bowl sink and I can't wait to upgrade to a double. There's just not enough room, especially when we have company, for the sink to be usable once it's full of the dirty dishes. Than again, we wouldn't have that problem if we had a dishwasher. Now you got me thinking....
We have a double bowl and I love it, our kitchen is pretty small but when we bought our house a double sink was on my wish list. I also want to make a cutting board the size of one side. That way I can quickly cover up dirty dishes while entertaining in our kitchen.
We have lived in homes with a single and double, and we like the double better - hands down! It's just so convenient when you need the extra basin. Of course you have to be a little more disciplined about tidying up since there's always the option of letting the dirty dishes stay put and using the other sink.
In terms of boxers or briefs, I say it really depends on my mood that day.
I would not be able to function without a double sink. Food prep, clean up, convenience, etc.
Well, the decision has been made. I am going with a 60/40 undermount.
New quartz counters which I got at a seriously unbelievable price (like less than 50% of the price of what Lowe's and Home Depot are charging) and the sink will all be installed on Wednesday so I'll be all clean sparkly before Christmas! They are also giving me the remnant from the sink cutout with a (hopefully large) hole drilled into it so that I can place it over one of the sinks for extra counter space when needed. As an additional courtesy they are rounding and smoothing the edges of the remnant. I will post some before and after photos as I've been doing a good bit of little changes that are making a nice difference.
Every change made so far has been my spin from something that I've discovered right here on hometalk! When I get around to finally posting all of this stuff, it'll end up being more of a shoutout to the originator than a post!
Thank you all for your help and advice!
Did you ever consider a farmhouse style sink? They do have double bowl versions. I like them as they are deeper and for doing pots and pans that do not fit in most dishwashers it is fantastic.
I wondered the same at one time. With so many family functions and the good hearts of my sisters after every diner there was a fight to help clean up. I remodeled the kitchen, put the dishwasher between to double bowl sinks. I would love to send a picture but not techy enough to paste it here. When not in use I have top to cover it. It serves as regular counter space. This brought me to the idea of not enough ovens for big diners. so on my island I bought to GE stainless slide in ranges, one with a double oven the other with a huge oven. These also have matching counter tops when not in use. If I had the money I would have bought one of the six burner ranges with two ovens. I compared 15,ooo.oo to 3,500.00 same results, 10 burners. Great for buffet style eating and the double sinks great for fast clean up. And I do know that when you have guest, you shouldn't allow them to help clean up. Family quit being guest when they know where everything is and have keys to your house. LOL
Idid away with my dish washer since I always wash my dishes by hand anyway. I prefer to have drawer cabinets in place of the dishwasher. And I love my double sink. Good choice! You won't regret it. :)
Here's my sink and just a glimpse of the new countertop. I love this sink!
great for get togethers
I searched for what was perfect for my family of 5 adults. We go through a lot of dishes in a day and I forgot to mention that they are all males that miraculous don't see dirt,dust,or anything that requires cleaning heck just this morning I came down and 2 work nights so neither ran dishwasher. I hate waking to a sink with dishes so needless to say that I ran machine since they are sleeping. I love my sink faucet. I got the deepest one I could afford it's 9" deep and the faucet is gooseneck so nice and tall so I can wash my turkey and dry it off before I stuff it. It's really important to me that my turkey can fit. It may sound crazy but that's my priority because then I know my stock pot will fit for turkey stock once we finish eating. The faucet is perfect it doesn't get in my way. This house had a 2 sinkso that were tiny. Since we were redoing kitchen I made sure to be wise and buy what was important to me. I would have preferred 2 dishwashers but not enough space.
Our large sink is a large sink with a small bowl sink attached, which is where the garbage disposal is, and the prep sink is round, with its own garbage disposal.
I should have suggested that when you do decide you should check out sinks and faucets at Faucets direct.com the prices and options are great and delivery is great.
