How to Choose a Kitchen Sink
Choosing a kitchen sink in Perth is not a difficult task, but there are some measures to take to ensure you select the best sink for your needs and budget. Often, the cheapest kitchen sink isn’t the best option – even if restricted by budget. According to Houzz.com.au, a kitchen sink is used as many as six or seven times a day; that’s 2,555 times a year and over 38 million times during the average 15-year lifespan of a kitchen. Needless to say; it pays to invest in quality when choosing a kitchen sink in Perth.
A kitchen sink needs to offer longevity while also complementing the kitchen design style. The key to choosing a kitchen sink is to find one that pairs these two attributes at an affordable price. We believe our range of sinks does just that.
Kitchen Sink Quality
The quality of a kitchen sink lies in the material and warranty. Seek kitchen sinks made from high-grade 304 or 316 stainless steel. Avoid 430 stainless steel sinks; these lack durability and won’t offer the same longevity as kitchen sinks made from 304 or 316 stainless steel.
The warranty is also a good indication of quality. As mentioned, the average kitchen has a 15-year lifespan, so choose a sink that offers a minimum 15-year warranty. Ross’s Discount Home Centre’s sinks surpass this; our range includes stainless steel kitchen sinks with 25-year and 35-year warranties.
Kitchen Sink Design
Second to the quality is, of course, the design. There is no right or wrong choice for selecting a kitchen sink design. It purely comes down to personal preference. However, a sink that facilities your needs, which is practical and functional, is always going to be a better choice. If you handwash your dishes, for instance, a sink with a drainage tray would be a wise design choice. If you don’t do a lot of cooking, then a contemporary square or round single bowl sink will suffice. Always consider application and functionality over design aesthetics.
