I love the look of modern sinks and wash basins, but for practical use, they disappoint -- the water goes everywhere. I love this sink. It's the perfect width and depth. The kids use it and there isn't a trail of water following them out. It's clean and elegant. It was very heavy dropping it into the matching base -- but that actually secured the base and stabilized the set. My only wish is that the overflow holes didn't have to be located front and center under the faucet. I wish they could be placed on the opposite side of the sink - but then again, that might defy the laws of plumbing. Overall - its a beautiful, high quality piece and adds so much so my teeny bathroom! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
