The ALFI AB1717UM 17-inch Round Granite Undermount Prep Sink delivers Italian-crafted elegance and extreme thermal durability for discerning homeowners seeking a sophisticated, functional secondary sink solution.
Italian-Designed Elegance Meets Uncompromising Durability
Experience the pinnacle of European craftsmanship with the ALFI AB1717UM undermount prep sink. Meticulously designed and manufactured in Italy, this 17-inch round sink brings a touch of high-end sophistication to any kitchen. Its seamless integration and refined Biscuit color finish create a cohesive, minimalist look that elevates your entire countertop, transforming a utilitarian space into a statement of modern design.
Superior Granite Composite Construction
Crafted from premium granite composite, this sink offers exceptional resilience that outperforms traditional materials. The non-porous surface resists stains, scratches, and daily wear while maintaining its luxurious matte finish for years. Unlike stainless steel, it won't show water spots or fingerprints, ensuring your kitchen maintains its pristine appearance with minimal maintenance.
Exceptional Thermal and Impact Resistance
Engineered to withstand severe thermal shocks and very high temperatures, the ALFI sink provides peace of mind during intense cooking sessions. You can safely place hot pots and pans directly in the bowl without worrying about damage or discoloration. The material's inherent strength also offers superior resistance to chipping and impact compared to conventional fireclay or porcelain sinks.
Perfect Secondary Sink Solution
With exterior dimensions of 17 1/8" x 8 1/4" and an inner bowl size of 13 3/4" x 7 3/4", this sink serves as an ideal prep station or secondary cleaning area. Its compact yet functional design makes it perfect for kitchen islands, wet bars, or butler's pantries where you need dedicated space for food preparation without occupying your main cleaning station.
Seamless Undermount Installation
The included undermount installation hardware ensures a clean, professional installation that creates a smooth transition between countertop and sink. This installation method allows for easy countertop cleaning as you can simply wipe debris directly into the sink. The design requires a minimum 18-inch cabinet size and features a center drain placement for optimal functionality.
Certified Quality and Compatibility
Backed by Uniform Plumbing Code (cUPC) certification, this sink meets rigorous industry standards for quality and performance. Please note the drain is not included (recommended model: ABST35), and the sink is not compatible with garbage disposals. Its specialized design makes it perfect for dedicated prep areas where disposal functionality isn't required.
Ideal For Modern Minimalist Kitchens
The ALFI AB1717UM sink particularly complements contemporary and minimalist kitchen designs where clean lines and sophisticated materials take precedence. Its round shape provides a softening contrast to angular cabinetry and countertops, while the warm Biscuit color adds subtle warmth without dominating the visual landscape. This sink represents both a practical and aesthetic upgrade for design-conscious homeowners.
