Stainless Steel Sinks

Posted by Lester on January 19, 1999 at 12:48:47:
We are redoing our kitchen and will put in a granite countertop. My wife wants to put in a sink that is undermounted (i.e. so that you can sweep things from counter into sink without going over a ledge). I've heard that some sinks that are top-mounted can in fact be installed from below so that it looks like a regular undermount sink. IS THIS TRUE? If so, what are the pros or cons to doing this instead of getting a true undermount sink? There seems to be a substantial price difference between the two. Also, any comments on the quality of the following manufacturers (again, sometimes big price difference): Blanco, Franke, Kindred, Elkay, Whitehaus, Foster, CitiMetal Products. Thanks
