planning on getting Caesarstone Quartz.
reason for top mounting my Dalago 45 is purely aesthetic
see which way you prefer =
Under Mount -

vs

Top Mount -


What do you guys think? which way is nicer looking?

hmm.gif

My view would be biased but if I have to choose one for u out of the two and if u don't mind under mount, I will go with under mount. smile.gif

HCE or Haustern sinks I have seen around in this forum but I don't know how the quality is?

Do PM zheilwane as he he should be selling HCE/Haustern sinks as well.

I'm using undermount sink for my concrete support but I kind of dislike the way my tilling contractor did my undermount sink.  Make it look so lousy

I'll be getting a single bowl granite too. Haven't decided the brand. Either hce or rubine ...

another reason is my quartz countertop is not going to be resting on a piece of plywood. that would make undermounting a bit harder. not impossible just a bit harder. you can buy a sink settler and easily mount it

my sink is anthracite on white countertop. cant find a picture but this is close

Ok. If this combi, I veto my vote. I change to top mount smile.gif

the one in the picture is rock grey and it is actually flush mounted, not top mount, maybe thats why you change your vote

which color did you buy for your pleon 9?
*
Oh no wonder. Didn't notice it's flush mount. Haha

Can I do flush mount with tiles u think?

My pleon 9 is black ...

Flush mount need to buy flush mounted models
But if you try to flush mount yours I think can la if you can accept a tiny little gap. The edges of your pleon 9 is a bit rounded. So this meets your tile there will be a little ditch I think
*
Oh. So leceh. Ya, u r very sharp to notice the round edges smile.gif

what taps will u install ?

Try open the links in desktop. You will see more details. The descriptions are detailed enough to answer your questions smile.gif

U just have to take note on the size of your sink hole. Standard is 35mm for pre-drilled sink hole to install the tap. If you install on table top, sizes may vary.

here is a better diagram of the flush mount. i think this method is not for your everyday countertop fella to do. it needs to be very precise cut - It has the advantage of an undermount with the ease of a top mount.

Below is the diagram for undermount and the amount of reveal - how much or none depends on your taste

I need to qualify that I have not seen the actual products. It's in warehouse pending shipment to me. So your judgement called is required smile.gif
