In the kitchen you can do without a table (after all, you can eat on the floor), without a gas stove (many now use the “microwaves”), but without washing it is impossible to imagine this room. Statistical data report that the washing is used when performing 60 percent of the total work in the kitchen. Water is collected, dirty dishes are washed, vegetables and meat are thawed (fish). Therefore, before buying this important element of the kitchen, it is necessary to clarify how many bowls will need in the sink, where to place the mixer, whether to equip the equipment with a wing, a valve with a valve and other necessary and useful things.
Modern sinks have completely different forms. You can find round sinks, rectangular products, corner products. The washing can be equipped with a wing, consist of one (two) bowls. Classic is a rectangular (square) bowl. Such furniture to order will enable designers to enter the maximum size in the kitchen set. True, round bowls that have the same volume are slightly more capacious than rectangular models.
Today, sellers of kitchen furniture admit that the most common and popular production and manufacture of furniture of corner configuration, consisting of two rectangular bowls, which are located either in the line or at an angle of 45 °. Another option is to combine bowls of various shapes, for example, rectangular and triangular. It is important to attach importance to the depth of the bowl. If it is too deep (you have to bend) or too small, it will be inconvenient to work. 160-200 mm-this is the optimal sink depth.
The wing (dryer) is considered an important element of the sink. You can put dirty (washed) dishes here, put fruits and vegetables, place hot pans and pots. This is a kind of continuation of the countertop. Usually the sink is equipped with one or two wings.
Chrominopolistic stainless steel is considered a common material for the manufacture of sinks, due to hygiene, anti -corrosion, high impact resistance and resistance to detergents, acids and high temperatures. True, they produce a lot of noise, so manufacturers are forced to install special sound absorptions (soft pads) on individual models. Another minus of such a sink lies in its compulsory grounding when it is near the electrical device. The surface of the equipment can have a glossy texture or matte, a relief pattern on engraved surfaces is also possible.
The cost of cheap washing of domestic production is $ 15. The price of an expensive European model costs $ 300. And exclusive German models cost $ 2000.
