kitchen sink: Double, Single or Asymmetrical?

[RamblingRose]

I currently have a double kitchen sink and am thinking of changing to a large single sink when we remodel our kitchen.

What is your preference?

1. I preferred a double. Soaking or rinsing while i washed in first.

2. I like the large single

Sink. Makes washing large pots easier.

7. Me, too. Why have to scrub TWO sinks??? Sorely regret my choice. n/t

11. Went large single too. Big enough to use as a tub for my grand daughter.

She is 1 and loves splashing around in the sink.

16. I bathe my dog in mine!

18. My pups are too big for the sink

One is a little over a hundred pounds and one close to 80. Grand daughter on the other hand is 21 pounds.

3. Garbage disposal?

Those do better off to the side in a smaller separate sink in my opinion

6. We're on septic so we don't use our garbage disposal.

4. other- 3 sinks.

i have a double and a pot sink, and remodeling a rental unit i own to add a separate sink.
having one sink for food and one for dishes does a whole lot for the work flow of a kitchen.
prevent losing flatware in the disposal, too.

17. Great idea! I do have a useless small

Sink in my island.

5. Love the large single.

8. Asym, & on a septic too.

Got a stainless steel sink, and had the back side sprayed with truck bed liner to eliminate the clank sound.

[RamblingRose]

9. That's another good question: porcelain or stainless

I've never heard of doing that. Where'd you get that idea?

15. I did it on my boat years before

The diesel engine in my sailboat is underneath the galley sink. I did it there to cut down on the engine noise coming into the cabin.

19. We have porcelan and I *HATE* it.

It stains, it gets metal marks and looks like *you know what* if you are not super careful. If you don't mind that, then I guess it's ok.

My SO minds, and so it's not a functional sink for all the effort it takes to keep metal marks and stains out of it. It's just an expensive piece of art that uses far too much of my time and water compared to stainless.

10. I always have to...

Adapt to whatever place I rent so I am subject to many styles. I like some double sinks but they both have to be kind of big. If I have a large single, I use a dishpan so I can isolate some things.

If had a choice, I would choose either a large single with a small disposal sink on the side or, if space allows and I have seen this and loved it, a medium/large sink, a small disposal sink on one side of it and an even larger type that is large and at least 18" deep on the other side of it. The larger being where all the big stuff can go and not disrupt any normal sized activities.

A friend has such in their kitchen and I thought it was ideal for someone who really uses their kitchen. It also has two removable, multi-flow-type spouts, one for the biggest sink and one for the other two. The restaurant cook in me was in heaven when I used that kitchen.

13. I have a large stainess sink that's big enough to soak a cookie sheet. I love it!! Also big enough

to wash my 23 lb. rat terrier. I keep a small bucket at one end with warm dishwater so it's like a small sink and still have the rest of the sink to use for everything else. Would never go back to my two sink set up.

14. Mine is a double, that is 1960s I guess but I

like it.

20. Large, deep double stainless with high faucet

that pulls out. It’s just me so I didn’t put a dishwasher in when I remodeled the kitchen. There’s a space for one which I use for the trash can. Use one sink to wash and the other holds the dish drying rack

21. A stainless steel single sink with sharp corners

is a PITA to clean.
