As a novice decorating for the first time, how should I choose between a Taichung basin sink and an undercounter basin?

Whether it is better to choose a counter basin or an undercounter basin when renovating a kitchen? This question requires detailed analysis of specific issues, and the choice can be based on the actual situation of the individual.

1. The advantages and disadvantages of under-counter basins and under-counter basins

Buying a house is a big deal, and decorating a house is no small matter. The kitchen is a part that cannot be ignored when decorating a house. There are three types of sinks to choose from. Many people don’t know how to choose? First, the advantages and disadvantages of Taichung basins. There are generally three types of kitchen sinks, namely above-counter basins, mid-counter basins and under-counter basins. Different types of sinks have different advantages and disadvantages. Let’s talk about Taichung basins first.

The countertop is also called a flush-mounted basin. It is a layer that is polished off the kitchen counter according to the size of the sink so that the sink and the platform form a flat surface. This kind of sink looks more beautiful from the outside and is easy to clean during daily cleaning. Taichung basins have advantages and disadvantages. There will be a gap between the sink and the platform. If stains or garbage on the countertop accidentally fall into the gap, it will be difficult to clean. Over time, bacteria will easily breed.

Then, the advantages and disadvantages of undercounter basins. As the name suggests, the undercounter basin is that the entire sink basin is under the flat surface and is fully embedded, as if it is suspended under the countertop. In this way, the installation is easy to take care of daily, and there is no need to worry about missing dead corners.

But this undercounter basin also has a disadvantage, that is, the installation process is very troublesome, and you may need to pay the installer additional fees. In addition, the under-counter basin is fixed under the countertop with strong glue. If you want to replace the sink, you need to replace the entire countertop.

2. How to choose between under-counter basin and under-counter basin?

After reading the comparison of advantages and disadvantages above, some people wonder what are the advantages and disadvantages of countertop basins? An above-the-counter basin is an installation method in which the sink protrudes from the countertop. Generally, this type of installation is more popular because the above-the-counter basin can save space and is more convenient to install, but it is prone to corrosion over time.

In daily life, if the space reserved on the kitchen countertop is relatively small during decoration, you can choose an above-the-counter basin. If you pursue aesthetics and want your kitchen countertop to look simple, you can choose a Taichung basin. If you don’t have any requirements for these, you can consider an undercounter basin.

Third, to sum up the above

In short, both under-counter basins and under-counter basins have their own advantages and disadvantages. When installing, you can choose according to the decoration situation, after all, you can use it according to your heart. The process can make you happy.
