Stainless Sinks?

16x20 stainless bathroom sinks... Do they exist? Currently all I see on-line are acrylic colored to look stainless, but no real metal ones. I'd like to start with simple upgrades like this to eventually changing the floor and possibly paint or put in new bathroom wall panels to make my Lexi look more modern and updated. I've never been a big fan of the RV industries choices in fabrics, valences and wall panels. Any suggestions on the sink, etc???

    Best bet is to go to a Big Box Store, lots on display and you can measure them and see how deep they are, and while there, buy a household type faucet to your liking. Have done this with our TC and travel trailer.

    Have you tried the big box stores...Lowes, Home Depot, etc? Got mine at Lowes, though don't remember the size.

    This is the one I used, had to enlarge the cutout a little and change part of the drain that connects to sink( was able to get drain aligned with existing plumbing). Much happier with new sink.

    I wanted to make sink area in my OFF-ROAD POPUP a tad larger so picked up all I needed from LOWES. Also used the stainless steel sink...

    We also have stainless steel sinks in our kitchen which is always my choice. If your current sinks are shallow and you can, put deeper sinks in when you replace them. I also would not buy the cheapest light weight ones either.

    We replaced out kitchen sink with a SS sink that that "close". A bit of work and the sink in now a permanent fixture! Lovin' it! You may not be able to find an exact replacement but you should be able to find one that even a rookie can make the necessary modifications. We found ours at Lowe's or Home Depot.

    If you find a sink that you like and it is a tad bigger than the hole, you take a skil saw and make the hole bigger, you might have to do some plumbing also for the drain.
