I have a large farmhouse sink that I absolutely love. In the master bath we have double sinks.

So, in my mind, a double sink (which I have and love) in the kitchen is completely different than two sinks in the kitchen. Double sink is great. Two kitchen sinks is not my desire.

I think I might change my mind and go with one sink in the kitchen. It also looks more modern. I changed my mind last year and have loved every second of one sink. SO SO SO clean and easy to use. LOVE it.

I want one sink for contaminated* dishes to soak as I'm cooking a Those dirty dishes are soaked in the single sink by filling with hot water and soap. Works better than sticking your hands down in gross, dirty dishwater!

I'm redoing my kitchen soon and in the planning stage. I have decided on one big sink, but cannot decide on stainless or not. I have a double stainless now and it is old and yucky looking, can not wait to get rid of it.

Me too! I don’t call washing plates in a sink of increasingly dirty water, washing them. 😫 I do reserve some of the water, to water my plants. It is like washing them in their own filth. I am another no sink full of water person. Yep, me too. No sink full of water!

I have a 35 inch long, 10 inch single sink in my kitchen and adore it! I have dealt with double stinks for my whole life and sick to death of never being able to fully get my big pots and tall dishes and kettles properly cleaned in them. This sink is amazing! The faucet is is one of those tall hook ones, with a built in sprayer. It’s set off to one side. I have a plastic dish bin to soak dishes and for washing. I have a soap dispenser. I got stainless because I didn’t want to chip enamel. I absolutely love it. Next will be to get a pot filler or not since the fridge is close to the stove and has a water dispenser.

Love my single farmhouse sink in the kitchen. Would never go back to two sinks.
I love that I can put an entire dinner party’s worth of dishes into the sink and pretend like my kitchen is clean when I have company.

I love having two sinks in the kitchen, and will never change to one. I often use both sinks.

I love my mom's two-sided kitchen sink! Now before y'all call me gross - I rinse the dishes off *completely* before they go in the soapy side. My kids roll their eyes at me because I holler about them putting "dirty" dishes in my soapy water. But seriously, who wants to "wash" dishes in water that has bits of food floating in it? Then I rinse them again to clear off the soap, and voilà! I have a single sink at home, and it's not big enough for my biggest skillet to lie flat in the bottom.

We have a double kitchen sink but I want a single. We have big skillets that need to be soaked and they don't fit in one side.

I don’t have a dishwasher, so a double is a must. I did get the kind where one side is smaller than the other. That was a mistake. I should have just gotten two big sides.

I could never go back to a double basin sink... I love my large single. (I also have a second prep sink.)

I like a double sink in kitchen. Mine is deep on both sides, with one side a bit larger than the other.

When we build our next house, we’ll go with one sink. It’s a pain to try and wash or soak a larger pan in a double sided sink.

Those dirty dishes are soaked in the single sink by filling with hot water and soap. Works better than sticking your hands down in gross, dirty dishwater! That's what I do. Fill the dirty dish with hot water & soap, no filling the whole sink with water on either side or sticking your hands in dirty dishwater. I like to have a "clean" sink for filling/draining pots so there is no worry of cross contamination. I have a clean sink to put the colander or pot in without giving it a second thought. Usually what is on the clean side doesn't even need to be filled with hot soapy water (prep bowls, etc.).
