This 1.5 bowl & single drainer kitchen sink is a popular sink among busy kitchens. Why? Just look at it! It's got it all - two sink, a main one and one that can be used as a soaker, or as an outlet for a waste disposal unit. Plus the drainer is nice and wide for even the most mammoth washing up sessions!

 

 

I am the owner of a one bowl sink. And you know what riles me more than it should? In the middle of washing up, I turn around to get more dirty pots to add to the sink, and they're all full of water. Argh! It means I have to empty the sink, empty the pots, and then repour. However, if I had a 1.5 bowl undermount ceramic sink like the one below, I wouldn't have to go through all that rigmarole. I could just use the small sink to empty, rinse and drain. Best sink invention. Ever.

 

 

The 900 double Belfast sink is designed in the classic Shaker-style, a no-fuss, simple, utilitarian look which gives kitchens a clean, minimalist feel. Although, the look is traditionally American, the Shakers originated in Manchester, England - so it is a style that straddles the Atlantic Ocean, and suits any type of home.

 

 

 

Every good chef needs an extra basin for the kitchen, if you're looking for an 8 inch prep sink, then this sink is a good starting point. Prep sinks do come separately, but one and a half bowl sinks are always a good idea, like this one below!

 

Why limit yourself to a one bowl sink? More sinks gives you options. Even if it is a 1 1/2 bowl ceramic sink, you still have that extra sink to store things, rinse things, drain things or soak things while the other sink is in use.

The sink below is a perfect example of one - nice, clean lines, perfect for a busy kitchen.

The allure of traditional sinks is understandable. A kitchen is a place of industry, creation and a social scene as well. You eat, cook, work, chat and meet up in the kitchen, so why not have warm, traditional kitchen furnishings to go fit in with what is the heart of the home?
