I have the stainless steel sink, one large, one small, LOVE IT! well, I love the size of it, not sure it's the stainless that I love, but I'm happy with it. If I had my choice of countertops, I'd like to check into concrete. I like granite, but I'm starting to think that its overused, now everyone has it. (maybe I watch too many home improvement shows. tee hee)
