I dislike my bathroom sink intensely for the same issues.

I hear you. Sinks are so important and the trends are not always functional (duh...)

I am reconsidering the "deeper is better" sink. I do like the capacity of it but with my short t-rex arms - I feel like I am hunching over to do things in the sink.

Mine is mostly square but does have some rounded corners and decent slope (Elkay Crosstown maybe?) so it drians pretty well - but the shape is / was purely form and not function.

I really like my 30" Julien sink with 18" integrated drainboard. The corners are not 90 degrees, but just barely rounded. Chasing food bits around a sink is not a new phenomenon! I've always had to do that in any larger sinks, but it is easier now with pull-out faucets, compared to when you had to use those useless side sprayers. Having a good faucet with a strong stream, that can reach all the corners, makes a big difference. Good water pressure helps too.

I have a huge waterstone faucet. i still need to use my hands to move things along. my water pressure is average, I’d say. These sinks are just so darn flat and the corners make it even worse.

Yep, yep, yep -- we have a DEEP sink in our workroom at school, and I despise reaching over so far. Admittedly, I am much smaller than most people, but I'll stand by it: No deep sinks!

I recall Rachelle sink owner making a post or comment about how the ideal sink depth is something around 6” or 7” the market is pushing us toward 10” for silky reasons. and it hurts your back.

I've had sinks that were poorly designed, didn't work well, or were ugly, but I've never been sufficiently emotionally involved with my sink to hate (or love) it.

My favorite sink was a commercial model with three 12" deep bowls plus a big drainboard on each side and a foot operated overhead sprayer.

Sorry no. I ADORE my sink. Three compartments, two large enough for a jelly roll pan to lay flat.

Very happy with my Kraus 32 inch single bowl stainless sink. Corners are 10 degrees and it has never been an issue with debris getting stuck in them. I love having the grid. My daughters sink in her apartment has a strong slope and it drives me insane. If you put a glass, utensil etc in the sink it starts sliding toward the drain.

I would never get a zero radius sink for the very reasons you stated.

I have a very large Orca sink by Franke. Cleans up easily with no muss or fuss. 30" x 20" x 9" deep. Love it--no bending over necessary but I'm 5'5" so not sure if that makes a difference.

Had you asked? I'd have told you the PAIN you just described. You need at least a 15 degree radius. I will let NO client have that precision zero radius, since the single and very first that went into a kitchen......more than a dozen years ago. Every time I walked in? My client yelled " stop cleaning my kitchen!!"

My favorite? Blanco, Stellar, single bowl .....

Mine similar to the one you hate double sink but has the lip came with removable drying rack and strainer. Yes you have to clean the edges once get into a routine it is not that bad.

I suspect there's good reason that commercial kitchen health regulations require the sink corners to be radiused.

Get a new sink: ) No it is not impossible. Why live with something you despise every day?

Ask @ Joe Corlett: ) and inform the exact zero radius brand/size sink you own. Maybe you're in West coast Florida and you get really lucky.

I've changed almost every double bowl a client had, to single, for what that's worth. Worth the inconvenience and the money.

@arcy_gw, would you mind sharing your sink manufacturer and model? It sounds lovely 🙃
