Warming Drawers

Sink Accessories

Many accessories such as colanders, bottom grids, work shelves, cutting boards, and drain baskets are available to perfectly fit in your sink. For example, Kohler’s Stages Sink was inspired by chefs to stage the sink for prepping and clean-up. The 45” single bowl is perfect for accommodating larger pots and pans and has a stepped side platform for prepping food or drying dishes. The sink comes with fully integrated accessories such as a walnut cutting board, six microwavable bowls, dishwasher-safe utensil tray, versatile flip tray that works as a cutting board or a large tray for food prep, bottom basin racks, and a storage rack for accessories that are not in use.

Blanco Crystalline prep sink

Want a prep sink but need more countertop space? Blanco’s “vanishing sink” features a glass cover (available in white or black) that provides additional space while also doubling as a cutting board.

Dornbracht Pivot

Is it a faucet, pot filler or both? The Pivot’s 21-3/4” arm rotates 360° making it ideal to be used across an entire kitchen island for rinsing glasses in the sink or filling pots at your stovetop. A practical but discreet twist handle is located just above the spout to provide a simple, ergonomic operation.

Touch or Sensor Faucet

Prevent cross-contamination and conserve water with an electronic faucet. Touch faucets allow you to tap anywhere on the faucet with a finger or even your elbow when your hands aren’t available. Sensor faucets are activated when an object, like your hand or dish, is placed underneath the spout so you’re only using water when you need to.
