The Best Buy Kitchen Sink Guide

When you buy a kitchen sink, these two names figure prominently, Moen and Blanco. Both are American companies that manufacture avant-garde sink designs for home and commercial use. The best kitchen sink is a matter of opinion, and often one may be lured by commercials and pronouncements that the most expensive sinks are the best. Such is not the case and you can find cheap sinks that just do the job as well as any signature brand.

Moen is an American company with its headquarters in North Olmstead, Ohio. They also manufacture faucets and showerheads aside from sinks. Founded by Al Moen, the company has constantly evolved and expanded to include various kitchen products that became a common fixture in most American homes. Since then, the company’s motto has been "Buy it for Looks, Buy it for Life." A true testimony to the lasting qualities of Moen products. It also offers a limited lifetime warranty on its products.

Another company that one should look out for is Blanco. Blanco is known for its trademark material Silgranit, which acts as an excellent alternative to ceramic-based designs. The company has been awarded ISO 9001 certification for the quality of its products, from the manufacturing process to installation until service.

When you buy a kitchen sink from Blanco, you would experience a material that isn’t stone but feels like it. It is very hardy, resilient, and guaranteed to last a lifetime without changing its color or tone. Its resilience is renowned because its composition is 80% granite with acrylic resin.

When you buy the stainless steel kitchen sinks, the sizes ultimately depend on the location where you are going to put them. Designer tabletops or countertops made from solid material should first be measured accordingly and matched with the dimensions of the sink. It would be a design disaster if you were to purchase a large sink and try to fit it in a small countertop.

Another thing to note when you buy a kitchen sink is the color that you would choose. Although most sink colors are neutral in that they could be placed alongside any tabletop color or texture, the right combination of colors will give you the best visual appearance.

Remember that the sink is one thing that rarely gets replaced once you install them. Invest wisely and if possible to hire a professional designer, carpenter, or plumber to help you with your choices.

Material is also another foremost requirement when dealing with kitchen sink design. As mentioned earlier, various composite materials have their unique advantages as opposed to traditional materials such as cast iron, steel, copper, and such. Be sure to know what advantage a material offers before buying out of impulse.

When you buy a kitchen sink, be sure to choose one which offers a lifetime warranty. Although most manufacturers already do so, purchasing from a retailer with no warranty might give you some savings initially, but could prove problematic in the long run should you desire to have it serviced.
