farm sink under or upmounted?

11 years ago

last modified: 11 years ago

We are remodeling our kitchen and we like the look of the farmhouse sink. However, my husband is quite tall and he feels that since they are quite deep, if we undermount it, it'd be too uncomfortable for him to bend over to wash or reach things in the sink. Does anyone have an upmounted farmhouse sink that they like? Recommendations? Thanks.

Your countertop will be normal height, won't it? If so, it will be the same as any other undermount sink--at least I think it will be.....

I suppose. However, we found that stainless steel sinks have more options as far as depths they come in. We're interested in the white farmhouse sink, which has less options in sizes. That's why we feel that if we do go with a white farmhouse sink, they tend to run deeper so our only option would be to upmount it. I did find one photo on houzz that shows one in this manner. I will try to attach it.
