Single bowl, 30" or more. Makes it ideal for kitchen activities and cleaning.
+1. You can clean things that do not fit a regular double bowl sink, one being the baby. Perfect spot.
Stainless is easy to clean.
Single handle, pull down head with sprayer, soap pump in the extra hole.
Also we had the counter in front of the sink extended two inches out. The space behind the sink is great for soap dish and such. I would do the same by the stove especially a countertop unit.
The largest deepest single sink in stainless undermount.
I despise my split sink.
And while stainless may show wear after a while, I don't like always having to be "concerned" about my porcelain, albeit it's 14 years old AFAIK, and doesn't have a mark. But I DO have to bleach it out occasionally which I guess comes from the finish wearing off probably by some chemical use.
Once my SINK chipped my Le Creuset dutch oven lid! Who would have thought - and the sink came out of that battle unscarred.
I'd also be doing my entire kitchen in stainless countertops....yeah it's not for everyone.
This is one of my former client's homes. The counter is by the back door entry next to the fridge. Not only is it good for cat entertainment and grooming , but I thought it was a brilliant idea for post shopping and/or prep or when you're entertaining out back.
My favorite part is she can put all the dirty crap over there and only take to the sink what fits while she's washing or putting in the dishwasher so the rest of her kitchen stays clean.
The house is a 1920s Craftsman bungalow that she renovated so I guess that area used to be a vestibule or mud room-ish type thing. Or maybe even an eat-in area.
Her SINK is white, though. Single.

We're almost finished with our house renovation and will be listing it soon.
The last thing we need to buy is the kitchen sink. (We've got everything but the kitchen sink. )
Have you researched the sink area and size?
Not all these sinks will fit just anywhere. And I found the sizes to be annoying when researching how to replace my porcelain with stainless. Very LITTLE choice, in other words.
And if you're renovating to SELL, the entire kitchen vibe matters.
I work in other peoples homes every day.
I'm surprised at how a few clients of mine have black sinks and black granite.
But I'd say 99% have stainless especially in homes built after 2005.
In fact, the only person I KNOW with white porcelain is ME! LOL Ironically done by the previous owner after a hurricane in 2004.
But her appliances were white.
ALL these other people have stainless. Or black for the black sink contingent. Even people with older houses and original materials like my 1970's person has stainless sink with old school cabinets.
I guess stainless was cheaper than porcelain. *shrug
I don't think people would want to see all stainless appliances and a WHITE sink, though. And vice versa. I have all white appliances and the white sink does finish it off even if it's not my first choice.
Runs, thank you so much for the input. We'll be installing countertops, too (any suggestions?)
I'm definitely going with stainless (thanks to you all) and, on a whim, plugged in 16G Kitchen Sink on eBay and found the lowest prices yet.
We have a pretty awesome kitchen vibe thanks to the other half's remodel efforts. All that's left is cabinets/sink/counter top. We had the same realtor in who helped us buy the place and he absolutely loves the kitchen/living room transformation.
Okay we are in the process of replacement windows, and the new septic tank is half installed (the good half). Weather permitting that will be finished tomorrow.
