Small Apron Front Sinks

18 years ago

This is actually for my laundry room, but I'm looking for a smaller apron front sink. I've found a couple of 24" (Rohl, Whitehaus and a couple of stainless), but the space would work even better with something smaller. I found one stainless that is 21" wide and 11" deep. Found a Whitehaus that is 19.5" and 7.8" deep overall, but the bowl inside is only 6.8" deep and w'd like it to be wider. Another possibility would be to have a stone slab sink made for the space.

Anyone have any other ideas? I didn't get the apron front in my kitchen and would like to find a way to make this work in my laundry room. Thanks.

How about the smaller IKEA ones?

I only saw larger ones -- I'll take another look.

My dream was to use the Rohl 24". It could still happen, but it's feeling like a squeeze right now. But then, that is my utility room. I curently have a small, shallow drop-in with about 2-1/2" of counter top on either side -- whether I need it or not. LOL

I did see a 24" one there -- attractive price and probably fine for the laundry room, bt they don't say how deep it is. What I'm really trying to find out is whether there are any more options smaller than 24".

What about the Rohl Shaws 15x15 prep sink? You won't have the apron fromt but it is fireclay and still has the Shaws emblem.

Here is a link that might be useful: Shaws Prep Sink on WSC Direct

I'm in the same position, with a very tight counter lineup. I wish the Shaw's came in a 20". Or something similarly thick.

I'm even poking around on English sites, where there are more choices. Of course, shipping on a 100+ pound sink would be an issue. But if the sink itself is hundreds less than one here (and some are) it might actually work out.

I can't put my hands on it, but I'm 99% sure Franke makes a 20" apron front that is well-thought of here. I think it's around $500 or so. (I was looking at sinks last week. This week I'm obsessed with 24" refrigerators. You know how everything blurs after awhile.)

I also saw M. Tiexera (sp) says it does not charge extra to make slab soapstone sinks in custom sizes, if you end up going that way.

It's nice to have choices!

Most of the smaller sinks are also shallower. The Whitehaus 19.5 inch sink is only 6.8 inches deep. If we got an extra deep counter, that might work.

I did find a stainless one by Elements of Design (never heard of them) that is 21" wide and 11" deep -- but it is nearly 23" front to back, so we would have to go with a wall mount faucet, and I would prefer fireclay to stainless.

Franke's smaller sink has that back deck that DH doesn't like. I really like the Rohl and wanted that one -- just not sure if I can go the full 24".

Going back to look at fridges...now that DH is set on 36". I convinced him that made more sense and gave options down the road. Need to figure out the needs, wants and priorities.....
