What you
need to know about apron front farm sinks!
|
|||||||||||||||||
| All
apron front farm sinks are not made alike! They come in all forms,
such as copper, stainless steel, granite, fireclay and bronze. The
most popular apron front sinks are made of copper - and ours are
different from all others on the market. Read on and see why! We
have selected the finest of all apron front farm sinks to offer you,
with a guarantee you will be thrilled! |

If you are looking at a sink with a center drain it will be obsolete before you even install it!Copper apron front sinks should have rear corner drains. Why? Having a drain in the center of a sink is a complete waste of work area. Even a rear center drain will not allow the user to place large items inside the sink without covering the drain. Once you have used a properly designed sink with a rear corner drain, you will never go back to the old fashioned center or rear center drain. Call us and let us tell you more! We have some copper apron front sinks on sale right now, hurry!
Why 8" deep? We have done extensive ergonomic research and have
found that 8" deep is the most comfortable depth for an undermount
sink considering a right rear drain. (Stupidly designed sinks
with center drains require a deeper bowl) A right rear drain
allows you to place just about anything flat down inside the sink
without covering the drain. If you are working at the bottom of the
sink (most of the time) you will find a shallower sink to be more
comfortable. Also remember, an 8" deep sink becomes 9 1/4" deep when under mounted. If
you are remodeling and changing just your countertops,
we are the only company who can offer you an apron front sink that
can be installed without modifying your cabinetry. We own the
patent. Check out this video!
Before you buy, give the copper sink the
penny test! |

Things to consider: (ONLY If you are getting a sink with a rear corner drain)
Yes, a 9" deep is too deep!!!
Most sinks are undermounted under granite, which effectively makes
the sink 10 1/4" deep. That is just too deep if you are going to be
working at the bottom of the sink. Think about this... the
countertop (36" tall) is designed to be a comfortable work surface.
Now subtract 10 1/4" from that comfortable height. You are
effectively working at a 25 3/4" height. Take this test and then
tell me if I am not correct. Make a work surface that is 25 3/4"
tall. Get a paper and pen. Try writing a letter while standing and
using the surface height you have just made. One more thing, make
sure you are standing several inches back from your work surface
(just like you would at a sink). Go ahead, write a long letter. I
can assure you will have a back ache. User Height: Did you know that there is an optimal sink depth proportionate to your height. Oh yes, your height does matter! Do you get tired while working at the sink? Or worse yet, get back aches like I used to? If so, your sink is not the right height. After 25 years in space planning and kitchen design, I have observed the following consistencies between user height and bowl depth.
• These sinks are generally mounted under a countertop with a thickness of at least 3/4". |

Stainless Steel
apron front sinks
should also have rear corner drains. We offer custom apron front
stainless steel sinks in any size and shape as well as in a
stainless, called Millennia, which helps to hide scratches and water
spots. Don't be fooled by lesser expensive stainless steel apron
front sinks, they are generally not user friendly! Consider how much
you use your sink. The sink is the most used appliance in your
kitchen. It is also a permanent investment. This is not a place to
scrimp! Call our product specialists and find out why our stainless
steel apron farm sinks are so different. 1-888-880-9469

We have been offering fireclay sinks for well over 10 years.

Bronze apron front sinks are rare and beautiful - and quite heavy (make sure there is plenty of help around when you have to lift one!) Bronze sinks will require a bit of care to maintain the patina, but our long list of past customers tell us that it is work the effort. Bronze sinks certainly make a statement in the kitchen. |
