I wanted to bump an older thread to get some more opinions.

I am amazed how many people above say they prefer a double basin sink so they could wash dishes. If you have a dishwasher, wouldn't you be using that to wash your dishes?

Also if you are planning to install a garbage disposal... would it be OK to use the large single basin sink and install the garbage disposal in the one basin? Any drawbacks?



I dont use my dishwasher at all

I am happy with an extra deep over sized undermount. I don't really find a need for another basin. I'm not a handwasher though. Everything but my pots go in my dishwasher.

I feel the total opposite

I really felt having a double sink you didnt get as much room as one big sink

I LOVE having a jumbo sink, i can really pile a lot of dishes and pots and pans and it doesnt even look full

I have a kohler large D bowl sink and its honestly the first thing people ooo and aaah over when they are in my kitchen



I totally agree. I am not a fan of the multiple basin sinks and went with the same sink as well. I also have a smaller prep sink in my island.

i have a double and its terrible. whenever i wash my pans the water spills out on the the counter. i suggest you look into getting one large deep sink.

Re: Multiple-basin sinks: worth it?

I went with a single large deep sink.

I bought a Franke and Franke has attachments you can place on it that acts as a double basin (for washing and preparing food and such).

So it's win-win. Thanks.
