Help with my new kitchen sink

[MrsSwears2Much]

We designed our kitchen in January, to start fitting in May. Covid happened and now it is finally being fitted. Yay!

But

I really don't like the sink we have chosen, but my husband has asked for the opinion of the vipers here.

Yes or no?

I like it, it’s black granite, right? I have the same, but I have a black granite work top. I would have went white in your colour scheme.

It's a nice sink but I think with your colours I would have gone with white

Thanks all. You have probably saved us from divorce 😂.
I was asking for grey when my husband said white.

Luckily the kitchen company (The Kitchen Depot for those in Scotland) have a white one in stock and ready to go, so I will ask to swap it tomorrow.

I like it but wouldn't have put it with those work tops.
Also don't like the fact the drainer is on the left side. I'm clumsy as it is and right handed so if I had a left side drainer we'd be using plastic plates!

Its vile and doesn't match at all

We've had all sorts of sinks but have gone back to good old stainless steel. Ours is satin stainless steel. I love it and great great satisfaction from making it shiny.
And yes it's around the wrong way.

Can't believe someone has actually Vile!!! Vile?? It's hardly that bad.

I do think it needs to be white but it's very smart!

Really sorry but I don't like black sinks!

@MasksGlovesSoapScrubs I'm you but backwards 😂 I'm a lefty so this makes washing easier for me lol.

@Leaannb wow! Cheers for the input...

Sorry, not a fan of the colour (although it will hide lots of stains 😁)
Also you will end up breaking all your crockery in there!

Some folks have really strong feelings about this sort of thing 😂

I wouldn't have a black sink because I live in a hard water area and it would look awful very quickly

Nope nope nope. White is the right decision.

I have that sink in a white corian type worktop and I like it. Thanks for calling it vile.

I absolutely love it!!

@Leaannb Touch of jealousy I think 🙄

I love it but perhaps doesn't match the worktops, so I think swapping to White is a good idea. Also wouldn't black just show all of the water marks and never look clean?

I’m not a fan of the colour, especially with the rest of the colour scheme

Black would show water marks - this is why bathrooms suites are always white now. In the seventies people experimented with colour and discovered that they always had a grimy white limescale on.

So change to white.

I have this sink too but our kitchen has darker units. I'm not sure whether something lighter would be better in yours - it's not vile though! I use a limescale remover spray on mine which has kept it looking brand new.

Vile? Blimey!

I quite like it actually but white probably a bit nicer. I'm right handed but have a drainer on the left 🤷

I have a very similar sink but in a dark worktop. I love it, it’s beautiful crushed granite and hasn’t shown water marks in 15 years despite being in a very hard water area.

That said I am not sure I would put it with your worktop to be honest.

Our sink also has the draining board on the left, we’re all right handed but that feels right to me. I am most confused that apparently I have it the wrong way (and chose to have it that way!).

Hardly think it's vile!!!!
Doesn't really go though op, White would look better imo.

I am not keen.
It would show up water marks / limescale / soap scum unless you wanted to be a slave to it and constantly be swiping it down every time it was used.

I must have appalling taste because I like it
