How to choose a good-looking modern sink

The modern sink can be considered the most frequently used sanitary ware in the bathroom, but at the same time it is also the least characteristic one. I believe that many friends did not choose this one because they liked it, but because they did not understand the advantages and disadvantages of the other models and preferred to choose conservatively. So let’s take a look together and see how to choose a reliable and good looking modern sink.

 

Let’s start with what models of washbasin are available.

 

counter sink(face value)

 

From a visual point of view, the style of the pedestal basin is the most beautiful,

and easy to install, easy to change,

it is easy to create a sense of art, is the first choice of concave shape.

However, the dead corner between the basin and the countertop is easy to mold and black,

and the water on the countertop is easy to flow to the ground, so be sure to pay attention to cleaning.

 

undercounter sink (easy to clean)

 

From the point of view of cleaning, the undercounter basin is the most convenient,

the water on the countertop can be swept into the basin, there is no sanitary dead space.

However, undercounter basins require strict installation techniques,

otherwise water can easily leak into the bathroom cabinet.

And undercounter basin want to remove and replace, you have to lift the entire countertop, a little trouble.

 

Semi-buried basin (fashionable and avant-garde)

 

In many foreign bathroom design,

will choose half buried basin, style novel, space-saving, now also more popular in China.

A unified international home furnishing editor is also very optimistic about the prospects of this kind of washbasin.

However, the basin and the countertop to closely fit,

there are certain requirements for installation techniques.

And stick to the side of the wall, over time, easy to mold and black.

 

Integral (clean and hassle-free)

 

The easy-to-install and hassle-free monolithic washbasin is now the first choice for many families,

one because it does not have the problem of water leakage,

and the other because it does not hide dirt and is easy to clean.

The only downside is that it is a bit more popular.

 

free standing sink (clean and simple)

 

Because of its small footprint, it is ideal for small bathrooms, especially those with a counter top of less than 70cm.

However, there is no storage space, so bathroom items will have to be found elsewhere.

Materials you may want to know about.

 

In addition to the most familiar ceramic materials,

there are also glass, artificial stone and stainless steel materials on the market.

Glass is fragile, heat-resistant and the most difficult to clean;

toughened glass is scratch-resistant and durable and looks clean and tidy.

Artificial stone is sturdy and durable and has many styles and good stain resistance.

Stainless steel and metal are more suitable for vintage or industrial styles and are highly personalised.

 

Once you know the good and the bad of these materials, you will be able to choose more clearly and distinctly.

 

A final note I would like to make.

 

Remind that when picking a washbasin you must choose a height that is more comfortable for the whole family to use,

depending on height.

It should not be too shallow, too flat and easy to splash.

A basin with an overflow spout is good for avoiding full water overflow and not easily getting the floor wet.
