Types Of Kitchen Sinks

Recommended Posts

Thanks! Yours is nicer and look more robust...i bet the sound proofing must be very solid, from your pictures shown.

The shine from your sink is quite different from mine. Yours is more shiny, plus with alot more accessories.

Yi fen qian, yi fen huo...

We are actually shortlisting the 680 x 530 x 220 mm (but we find that abit small). So decided to settle for this dimension.

Thanks! U really can make a person feel good. Bet you are doing sales... :sport-smiley-004:

Btw, have you mounted the sink? got some photos to share? What type of tap are u getting for this sink? Is it those pull out tap as the sink is quite big? Haa... I still deciding on the tap. My reno not yet start so got time to look around too....

Looking for good contractors? Click here for your request

Just to share..

If your sink is just right above the refuse chute hopper

Take note of the depth.

Too deep, might block the access to the refuse chute hopper.

My contractor shift my single bowl sink to the left because the drain outlet blocking the refuse chute hopper.

Thanks for sharing! But I think it should be ok for new flats as the rubbish chute is outside the flat. Only older flats need to take note.

No lah, its the truth. Ur sink is more grossy... if you compare the pictures, its really more shiny.

Yah, i do sales but i dont bluff pple...haha

yah..i mounted the sink but not yet take pictures.

I got the pozzi tap, picture as shown below...

This design i feel, is more practical, due to its outstretch head and not much curvature towards the end of the tap body. The screw area is also more robust.

I never considered the pull out type as more movable parts would mean more wear and tear, unless you are getting a very very good one.

I saw my fren's tap at my current house (not this one), his is a pull out design in which the pull out hose is black in colour. He got it for 300 plus dollars. That tap is quite solid...

if u looking for lightings and toilet stuffs, go to Lite fusion, look for MARCUS. he is the guy who recommended me the kitchen sink, tap and toilet bowl...

I like your tap... very outstretch... suitable for your big sink..

I'm looking at a curve one as my sink is not big. I also think that a pull out will result in more parts failing.. haa..

Once I decide which to buy I will update here... :yamseng: :yamseng:

I got a pull out years ago. My experience from using this type was bad.

When it leaks due to wear and tear, the water runs down along the tube and wet the below sink cabinet. I was lazy to address the problem and years later one of my sink cabinet side gave way due to rotting wood. :o You do not know that it leaks as small drops accummulates and soak into the sink wood.

I swore never to get this type of tap. :curse:

However, I've decided to renovate my kitchen due to above problem and will be using the same ID as May.

Thanks for sharing...

Water, heat and wood never make good companions.

my kitchen hot and wet area... I am doing concrete base so lesser chances of the wood rotting. Only the cupboard doors will be wood...

Actually wanted to do sliding al doors but its too ugly.
