Kitchens Design Dilemma Remodeling

fireclay farmhouse sinks

2 years ago

I’m shopping for a fireclay apron style sink for my kitchen remodel. I’ve noticed the prices vary dramatically for what looks like the same thing.
Are you just paying a premium for a name brand with the more expensive sinks? Is there anything to look for? I found a sink on Amazon that looks very nice for $600 which wasn’t the cheapest ( I’ve seen as low as $300) but I’ve noticed the big names such as Koehler can easily cost $1200+

Apparently Kohler only makes 3 sinks in vitreous china. Are you sure you're not confusing them with Kohler's cast iron?

I wouldn't get a fireclay sink as they are one dropped pan away from replacement.

I have a Whitehaus and love it. IMO you get what you pay for -- that's pretty much life 101. I will say I haven't had problems with chipping and glazing as some have reported, but I have a stainless grid on the bottom.
