that rubber thing is just for sound deadening. yours is a stainless steel sink correct?
maybe its the drain fitting that is leaking

Yes same, italy design but made in china. Mocha will be more on targeting hardware shop.

If you have budget, go for blanco.

Definitely more solid feel than any other brands.

Hi, just to get some info from you guys. I just bought a double bowl sink. But the sink doesn't come with the tap hole. Any idea how to open the hole? As far I know stainless steel are hard to drill.

Hi just wondering if anyone been using granite sink for some time? wonder if its hard to maintain or require special care? heard it would discolored overtime

Where did you read that? I've no experience yet cause not yet install.
I don't think it can discolor. Maybe stained.

read the last 2-3 comment. now i also headache. kinda like the black one so that it goes well with my black table top now i am in a limbo...

some say ok some say not ok...so was hoping any forumer here that has been using it for years can share their view...

take a chance
what other choice do you have? stainless steel will get water marks - this is guaranteed
mine is a blanco and even that gets lots of negatives and positives - you can read here

Can PM me how much you got your sink and what size? Thanks

my sink single bowl and very small only cost S$488. bought here - http://www.hoekee.com.sg/kitchen/composite...-45-detail.html
you can find double bowls for even cheaper there at hoekee

going to top mount mine

blanco is a good brand thus the price is a little premium. for that bowl i think those no name brand can go for RM600-700.

yeah better go for top mount. just in case if need to change bowl no need so troublesome

you can do undermount and still be able to replace it easily if necessary. just dont sandwich it between your counter and rough top like in the blog you posted.

going to be hard to decide. as of yesterday both my wife and i decided to go old school with stainless steel. unless something dramatic happen. thanks for sharing

Bro,
You did you sink already? How is it? Are they using silicon to seal it?

not yet, havent even got my house keys. only next year can start renovate
you thinking of another way besides silicon?

Haaaa. Like that u so fast get your sink already. Lol. My kitchen cabinet contractor not confident of doing undermount. Guess I am stuck with top mount. My only gripe is the transparent silicon which I believe over time will sure turn to spotted black.

suddenly delayed boh pian
dont put so much silicon, just put a bead on the inside inside so that when they press on it, it will spread out just a little. you put masking tape around it, any overflow lands on the tape which you tear off after installation. if they lazy, just want to wipe it off then sure will black black later on

Yar sorento from china.
Better look for 1.5 thk

Under mount sink is very common now. Where did you get dis contractor?

Buy the sink setter....very easy to install
