In Praise of the Single Sink
I decided to make a post showing why having a single basin sink is better, at least in my opinion. My TC came with a single sink as seen in the first picture.
The first advantage is that this gives us 35" of uninterrupted counter space between the outside edge of the sink and the outside edge of the stove top, as shown in the second picture (Also shown is our full-size coffee maker in this area with room to spare).
The next advantage is that we can buy 3-gallon, plastic 'pans' that fit into the sink, exactly. As seen in the third picture. But we do not just have one plastic pan, we have two, forth picture.
And finally, the faucet on the sink easily reaches over to one of the pans if needed.
This arrangement allows us to have more counter space, keeps water from going down the drain if gray-water storage is a concern, allows us to take the two plastic pans outside to wash dishes if desired, and allows us to wash dishes using one pan for the washing, the sink for rinsing, and the second pan for holding the clean,wet dishes so water does not get all over the counter.
