What's this?

We had new countertop done several years ago and went with the undermount.

I don't see any problem with the sanitary part but the boss has already said she would like an overmount which would give you a larger opening into the sink.

New kitchen sink (for new counters): Drop-in versus Undermount? It seems to -- nokeneck 01/29/2021 11:08AM

We sell almost all undermount in our showrooms to homeowners, yet -- MADHOKIE 01/29/2021 12:41PM

So you're saying that drop ins are faster/easier to install for contractors -- `lag 01/29/2021 1:04PM

Understood, they want to snap things in and get paid... -- `lag 01/29/2021 6:11PM

Oh yeah, drop ins much easier to install, and there are -- MADHOKIE 01/29/2021 1:15PM

Oh I'm sure, caulk, drop 'em in, clamp 'em down and you're done. ** -- `lag 01/29/2021 1:18PM

I know that granite/stone is the in thing -- RTFC 01/29/2021 12:27PM

If this is a "working" sink, instead of a "show" sink, go overmount -- EDGEMAN 01/29/2021 12:10PM

Yep, this is another thing about overmounts, much larger sink ** -- HokieForever 01/29/2021 12:11PM

I think undermount looks nicer but that seam gets gross and is hard toclean ** -- jmanatVT 01/29/2021 11:18AM

I have overmount, parents have undermount -- HokieForever 01/29/2021 11:11AM
