Kitchen Sink

We are all familiar with the kitchen sink, however as with all the fittings previously mentioned there are various types and features that need to be taken into consideration when specifying the fitting or designing the kitchen.

Firstly we need to consider what the sink is going to be used for. While that may seem obvious, different people have different requirements.

Consider if the kitchen is for a large family or perhaps a retired couple. Is there to be a lot of entertaining or simply day-to-day living. Remember form follows function unless the user is expecting compromise.

Sinks come in many of the materials already mentioned and then some, such as concrete, "Corian" and glass but for the most part stainless steel seems to be very common and the most practical as it is very robust, won't chip or rust and can be made to any size that you or the recipient requires.
