We are going to remodel our kitchen in 2016 and are beginning to look at everything we are going to replace. One item we're having a hard time finding is a new undermount stainless steel sink. We are replacing the drop-in sink/laminate countertop with quartz. The base cabinet is the standard 32" wide by 24" deep, inside opening is about 31" x 22". My current double-bowl sink size is about 29" long x 14" wide (with room for the faucet holes behind it).
We are having a very difficult time finding a sink that is only 14"-15" wide but still roughly 28"-29" long so there is enough room to install the faucet behind. Almost every sink we see is at least 20" deep or require a 30" deep cabinet. We'd prefer a double-bowl sink but the only option that comes close is a farmhouse style sink (which we may have to go with) or maybe even putting two separate bowl cutouts side-by-side.
Is it just me or are kitchen cabinets now much deeper than 24" so a larger sink option is now the standard or am I relegated to a very limited number of sink options (think only 1 or 2 at best). We've only searched online and haven't spoken to our countertop dealer yet to see what options they have. It just seems so difficult to find what should be a simple replacement for a typical kitchen remodel job.
