Do you like a double or single sink in the kitchen? Why?

I would never live without a double ... one to wash in and one to rinse in ... not that I handwash many dishes but when I do it's handy   

My dog weighs almost 100 lbs so she wouldn't be in any kitchen sink   

I like a double sink for wash and rinse, but also for having dirty dishes on one side when I need sink space.

A dog would be washed in the laundry tub (deep sink) or in some sort of tub in the garage, not where food is prepared.

I have a double sink now and wish I had a single. My double has one side that's fairly large, but there are still some larger items like my griddle that won't fit.

Double sink so I have somewhere to collect my dirty dishes in one side until I get a chance to put them in the dishwasher but still have a clean sink to do other things (rinse fruit, etc.). Double sinks are easier for hand washing dishes too so there's one side to wash and one to rinse. I also prefer deeper sinks so the water doesn't splash out as much.

I don't think I could handle having a single sink, but it's nice having a big utility sink in the laundry room for washing oversized things like refrigerator shelves, our giant stock pot, that kind of thing.

Double sink - I don't have a dishwasher so I wash on one side, rinse on the other side

My mom loves her single. It's pretty deep- and yes, that's where she bathes the 7 lb dog.

I have only had double so I can't tell ya...

on the dog thing.. our little four pound dog gets washed in the sink..I can't imagine trying to fill a huge tub up with water for him. I clean the sink and area.. no germs..

Double!!!!

I have a single, and I hate it, too. It's not that big, so my big pans still don't lie flat.

My mom has a double, and I covet it every time I go visit her! I have the same reasons as everyone above: one place for dirty stuff while still having a place for filling pasta pots, washing veggies, etc. - and one side for soap and one side to rinse when doing the dishes.

Can't speak about the dog issue. We had a utility tub when I was growing up, so that's where the dogs got washed. If I had a dog now, I'd take it out to be washed!

The first thing I did when we moved in this house was rip out the double and replace it with a deep single.  I hated that double, couldn't wash my large cookie sheets or roaster pan in it.  Love my single, it's 29" wide and 9" deep.

A big single sink. We had one in our house when I was little. I have a double sink now, stainless, and I hate it with a fiery passion. I can't stand to see water spots on it. so I have to dry it every time I use it, which seems silly to anyone visiting and I take a lot of flak for it.

I bathe my 10-pound pup in my shower, so I wouldn't be using the single sink in the kitchen for him. I have a hand nozzle thing on the side of the normal shower spigot. I put the pup up on the bench in the shower stall and use the hand nozzle to wash him there. It would probably be easier on my back to do it in a big sink, so if I ever get one, I may change my view on it.

My last two houses have had a farmhouse sink and now I couldn't be without it. Love washing larger items so easily. And love now my dinner party dishes, pots, pans, and serving pieces all fit in the sink when I have friends for dinner and my kitchen looks clear and clean.

Double because I like to can.

Double.  I need one to wash in and one to rinse in.
