Thanks, I really want the truth because we will live in this house for the rest of our lives.

I want to choose right the first time and the best way to find out is by asking.

I had a lot of help from posters trying to decide how many lights to put over the bar.

I need all the help I can get.

I'm very happy with mine. It came with the house. It gets a lot of use and abuse, as most do, but it always comes clean with Soft Scrub. If I really am cleaning the whole kitchen and want it to shine, I fill both sides with bleach and water - one side at a time! - and let it sit while I'm doing something else, about one hour or so. Then I let the bleach/water out and go over it with a wet cloth. It does shine! We have a large bowl on one side, and a smaller one with a garbage disposal on the other. Have fun with your remodel!

Do you want a single or double bowl? My sister loves her composite sink.

I would love to have a single bowl farm sink but my husband doesn't think I will like it since we won't have a dishwasher (which I don't want).

I know call me crazy but with just my husband and me, I want more cabinets.

This one is Vitreous China/Porcelain Countryhaus Apron Front Vitreous China 30 in. 2-Hole Single Bowl Kitchen Sink in White

This one is really pretty-It's copper, a bit spendy at $825

That copper is so pretty but the price

Even prices for faucets are crazy.

When our house was first built we went with a double porcelain sink in off white. I loved it at first but over the years it had stains that I could not remove totally and had a few chips even though I was extremely care. I went back to a double stainless steel when we had our kitchen remodeled. I don't have to baby it so much now.

I've been in my house for 18 years. I started out with a white porcelain double sink. It stained and scratched and became unsightly in a few years time. I replaced it with a horrible granite sink from Home Depot. HORRIBLE! I really don't like anything thing from Home Depot/Lowe's. We recently (3 years ago) got a granite countertop and I decided to get a stainless steel full sink in my kitchen. I LOVE it! BUT...it scratches too. After I noticed some scratches I decided to get a rack for the bottom. OOhhhh it helps soooo much to keep it nice and scratchfree! In my new cottage (that we are moving into full-time) we got stainless steel and I immediately bought racks for those sinks!

I sure appreciate all the suggestions and how their sinks have held up with normal wear.

Our original sink was porcelain, but we replaced it with stainless steel. I didn't realize how fast stainless would get scratched and wish we had kept the porcelain sink.
