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...

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

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

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?

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.

yeah lousy contractor but already paid rm500 deposit. their quartz was cheap though. but honestly I don't really mind the top mount since I am using granite. my only concern is the silicon seal

yeah..coz I thought the wet kitchen use the stainless steel. dry kitchen not so heavy duty use the granite. I am inclined towards granite since my quartz is black so black sink black top.

most likely haustern. someone selling from RM850 plus one stainless steel mixer.

apparently they have quartz sink too

is it water proof? if water proof then ok I guess but still it would not look nice unless you can cut it to shape. I was wondering if they have black silicon. someone told me they have those better quality silicon(less acidic) which will not turn black...don't quote believe that ...

well they say the granite sink is very heavy....


huh

lol kesian.. how much and where to buy?

but I seriously don't think there is such thing as fungus free silicon. just better quality or takes longer for it to form

No my ori plan was undermount. Reason being is because I do not want the silicon to be exposed.
My contractor say can only do topmount which is like you say just mount the sink on to the quartz countertop. It's an easy way out for them.
I am ok with top mount but I don't like the exposed silicon.

undermount ppl cannot see the silicon mar..its there and even when it turns moldy its underneath...if top mount it quite visible no?

Undernoubt ppl don't stick their head to the sink and peek ma. The opening of the table top qlso slightly smaller than the sink thus hiding it
So for kitchen sink use what type? I read the soap, dampness is the main cause

looks like some high tech laser surgery table
