laundry

Reply to: When it came to our remodel my wife was "stove, eh whatever. Refrigerator, eh, whatever. I MUST HAVE A LAUNDRY SINK." Coming from Australia she'd never lived in a house without one before. She does hand wash a fair number of clothes as well as soaking clothes, and doesn't like rinsing any non-food related things (like mops or paintbrushes) in the kitchen sink (and the bathroom sink is really small). We have a 24" wide Ikea sink:

Reply to: Gotta agree it totally depends on where your laundry room is located and how you'll be using it. My laundry room also serves as a mud room. I love my big sink and use it to wash out the kids muddy sneakers, paint brushes and all the really dirty gunk I wouldn't want near my kitchen sink. Mine is 24 26" about about 15" deep. I'd rather it was wider and shallower.

Reply to: My laundry room is not large so we wanted the most countertop space we could get and still have a sink. We use our sink quite often. It is small but serves its purpose. According to kohlers website it can fit into a base cabinet as small as 21 inches. Here is a picture of it: We a bank of drawers next to it and then the countertop extends over the front load washer and dryer. I had no countertop in there before and love having it.
