After scoring at a warehouse deal on this Shaws Fireclay sink at $200 (instead of $2400) because it was “biscuit” instead of white, my challenge began. The task was to fit this +200lb sink into Ikea cabinets to match the rest of our kitchen design. Centering the sink on the window, working with the plumbing connections, and ikea’s (frustrating) limitations on cabinet/door combinations we settled on this 15/30 combination that would fit the 10″ deep by 39″ wide sink, and still live to tell about the weight of this beautiful beast. Colour matching the biscuit sink with Beach White Diresco quartz countertop worked very well and we are thrilled with the results. A few finishing touches will seal the deal on this important aspect of our great new kitchen.

I am surprised the doors still fit.
