Blanco Silgranit sink choices. Help!

18 years ago

I want an undermount Blanco silgranit sink because of the look and of course the practicality. I am finding it so hard to make a decision on which one to get. I will have a 33inch cabinet to work with. It will be our main sink. Any advice on the choice you made? Did you get any of the accessories? My other sink will be a quartz farm sink in white. My cabinets are traditional in style with some beadboard.

Well, I'm going for something of an early 20th century look, but an using silgranit for practicallity. Leaning towards this one:

I feel some of their more rounded shapes are too contemporary for my space. I prefer the big/small bowls over singles or equals, and the lack of symetry will actually help make up for the fact that the sink won't be completely aligned with the window above it.

The cafe brown color will work well with the granites I favor, too.

I am going to get the evenly divided one in white for my main sink. I will also get a single square one for a prep sink. I think if you have a farm sink, the square one would work for your second sink. Don't have a pix...

I have the one as pictured above, and I have had it since our remodel for about 3 yrs. I just LOVE it. It took a little bit of getting used to from my early 90's porseline sink. But-OMG, very easy to keep clean and it looks nice all the time. Very little upkeep. I have my garbage disosal on the larger side of the sink, if that helps you. We put the soap dispeenser on that side also! LOL!

I'm getting the cafe brown, much like the one oruboris is getting, only the left bowl is curved at the top. Unfortunately I got a call a couple of weeks ago saying it was backordered for 5 weeks - worth the wait. My cabinets are also traditional, maple with a brown glaze. The brown sink will be a great complement to the cabinets. Good luck with your shopping.

I ordered the blanco silgranit 1 3/4 (one side slightly smaller than the larger size) in biscuit. The biscuit looked good with my granite choice. It goes in tomorrow! Yay, no more running out to the garage to stroke my sink!

I got the sink grids for both sides, and the custom cutting board. Since they were shipping the sink free I thought I'd let the accessories piggy back because I thought I'd eventually get them anyways! Lots of people mentioned that they like the grids so their dishes can drain and it also discourages chipping (of the sink). I am probably more excited about getting the new sink over the granite. I have a one-sink kitchen so I am definitely sold on this one. It is the first sink I have ever picked out. Good luck on your decision.
