Ok. Maybe in a month's time. When will yours ready?

My contractor recommended negative reveal becoz my sink is round. He says neater. I saw some pics, quite nice. It's not nice if you put your head on the table top or into the sink , otherwise when I view it from the top, I find quite nice leh actually haha

Depends on which model. Like mine, if kena tax from our custom, I think still cheaper.
Certain models you don't save much cause they are having it on sale here. The difference is like Rm300 for these sale items. So if you add petrol, toll etc ....it's about the same

Neutral reveal is flush mount right? Saw a diagram showing positive, negative and neutral reveal. I think it's because your sink being round, can hide the edge a bit more than flush mount

Think neutral reveal is not exactly flush mount. Flush mount means the top line of sink is the same as the line of counter top right ?

Undermount with neutral reveal will be like your style. Hope I got the terms correct smile.gif

Yes. Correct. So flush and neutral means the same thing. Good we have common understanding now :-)

Yes, I believe so. brows.gif

Btw, one nice pic of a kitchen sink for you guys to enjoy. It's a granite sink undermounted with solid surface (will be the same with tiled concrete countertop if done properly) , love the look but I'm kind of clumsy and a little rough. Think I will break the granite sink faster if I got one.

Great! I hope mine will turn out like this with the tiles.

I see the other side of it. It's a good training for u to be tender and loving. Clumsy and rough can be a history wink.gif

Thanks for the reply. I saw hoe kee is selling pleon 9 with mida mixer tap bundled price at sgd599. Should be quite a good deal I guess.

Yes. Hoe kee is the right place. Personally I will not get the tap.

Undermount is what I'm going for now. I changed mind after convinced by contractor mainly because I use tiles.

IMHO whoever installed this sink didn't do a good job. The positive reveal is just too much.
The whole idea of an undermount installation is that no gunk gets stuck at the lip.
And he didnt even open the two predrilled holes. Now that it is mounted, could get to be a bit difficult

A tiny little bit positive reveal is nice, aesthetic wise. Zero reveal would be perfect but difficult to do. I'm not a fan of negative reveal due to my OCDness of not liking anything that I can't see for eg. under a plinth. tongue.gif
