I needed a smaller sink to fit in a small space in my bathroom. After looking at numerous sinks and measurements, I kept coming back to this one. I wanted a sink that was larger than 18 inches, but needed to be smaller than 24 inches. All the other sinks were either 18 or 24 inches. If there were sinks close to what I needed, they were not very appealing or they only had one hole for the faucet. I needed three holes.
