Stainless Bathroom Sink

19 years ago

Hi all,

I did a search on this forum and can't seem to locate any discussion with regards to the pros and cons of stainless vs other material for bathroom sinks. My designer suggested stainless in the guestbath because the hardware is a brushed nickel. Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I'm not sure I follow the suggestion of the designer as many, many on this forum have brushed nickel hardware with regular porcelain sinks. I have SS in the kitchen and it does scratch. I guess it depends on the look you are going for, how much use it will get, etc...but I think you can use anything with that hardware.

I was thinking of SS, but the showroom salesperson said that one of her collegues had SS and hated it because it showed every water drop and had to be wiped down constantly. We went with white and I am very happy.
