Kindred sink details



Going directly to Kindred web site doesn't work well with my configuration, use this link (/nav.html) to get to navigation bar.

When we only had 30" for the sink cabinet, I was going to settle for Kindred 25" sink. That's the size we have in basement and it seems fine. But now we have more space (since we added 6" in that area) and we are doing custom cabinets, so maybe we should get a 30" model instead.

The "platinum" series is 18 gauge stainless steel. The "gold" level uses 20 gauge SS, but mentions a sound-deadening undercoat layer. However, it looks like the largest single sink at that level is 25".

The US1930/90L/E is just over 30" dimensions, says it requires 36" cabinet. Is that because it is undermount and they need to leave space for frames/sides? The top mounted version has model number S2230/90ML/4E and it requires a 33" cabinet.

They also have a "granite" series that is some kind of acrylic composition. That line includes a 33" sink (30" interior; model SW050 for white) that can be drop-in or top-mounted. Note that it doesn't have holes for faucet, etc - does that mean they're supposed to be deck mounted (mounted on counter)? And if so, does that work for a laminate countertop?

Hey, maybe their US1813_70L_E would work for coffee sink! (wait, that one is undermount - we want top mount - not sure they have a narrow enough top-mounted sink - there is a 15x15 model but it claims to need 18" cabinet.)
