Does anyone have suggestions about where to look for kitchen sinks and faucets (other than Lowes etc.)?

Thanks!

  1. I highly recommend going with an extra deep enameled cast iron sink. Stainless steel may match the appliances but is hell to keep looking good.

  2. We got a $50 cast iron double sink from Green Demolitions. I highly recommend taking a look–it’s an investment of time, because you really need to go there and see what they have in stock at the moment.

    For faucets, I have had a very good experience dealing with Park Slope Plumbing Supply. Got two bathroom faucets and a tub drain through them. If you know roughly what you want, they can show you what’s available and get you decent prices. Talk to Mark.

  3. I had my heart set on a farmhouse sink. Rather than spend $1000 on one, we got the double version from Ikea for $199. It has been great.

  4. Agree with guywithahouse, ebay route provides best pricing. I bought my kitchen faucet from a guy that operated out of a sunset park warehouse, was able to inspect and pick up in person.

  5. Go to any showroom, find the make and model you want–then buy it on EBAY.

    I got a brand new Shaw’s farmhouse sink for about 30% off–even with the shipping. I also got a super high-end faucet (also brand-new) for more than 50% off.

    Obviously be careful who you buy from, but many of the fixture sellers on Ebay (including the two I purchased from) are well established distributors simply ditching stock.
