Stainless Steel Sinks

Stainless steel kitchen sinks are some of the most practical you’ll find, with their tough and resilient surfaces able to withstand an array of scratches, impacts and stains. It’s this reliability that helps them to stand out from others, with their popularity having seen a huge boost in the last couple of decades.

Stainless steel sinks are valued for their durability when used for an assortment of jobs around the kitchen. Including disposing of cooking runoff, without having to worry about any unsightly stains being left behind.

Where these sinks tend to lose out, however, is their visual appeal – these sinks rarely work in traditional kitchen settings with their wide use more commonly seen in ‘cut and paste’ kitchens. It is ceramic sinks that tend to be the favoured option in these traditional designs however, stainless steel kitchen sinks come in a wide range of unique styles, meaning you’re likely to find one that suits your taste, even if you are trying to create a more visually impressive kitchen.

These sinks have even been utilised alongside other sink types in larger kitchens, serving as a more ‘heavy duty’ alternative alongside the more appealing companion sink. A common practice is to have a larger ceramic sink within the kitchen space – usually as a centrepiece utility – while having a smaller stainless-steel sink for duties such as washing up or liquid disposal.
