Two sinks in one kitchen??

okay, so my cooker has to be 9ft away fom my sink in our newly planed kitchen (no other alternative). We're thinking about a small prep sink nearer the cooker...would this be OTT?

It doesn't really matter. If you want it and it will help you, why not?

JennsterSlugSlayer · 03/06/2008 07:59

Not at all. Go for it.

I think it would be ideal to have a prep sink seperate from the washing up sink!

Am too

My cooker is in my sink, my kitchen is so small. Go for it you lucky so and so

if the prep area is right next to said prep sink then a great idea

Why not if you have the space?

Though personally I like my cooker/oven, sink and dishwasher as close together as possible (and the cupboards for glasses, plates, cutlery etc also right above/next to dishwasher) so that I walk as little as possible.

In a professional kitchen, you would have to have a separate hand-wash sink from your veg prep sink.

And a two washing up sinks or a dishwasher.

So when you look at it like that, two sinks is quite restrained really

thanks all..you've set my mind at rest...how big is a prep sink anyway? or rather how small can it be so as still to be functional?

May be an idea to have the prep sink without a drainer, so that 'stuff' doesn't get dumped!!

that's a good idea
