| I just got off the phone with a granite fabricator. I have a narrow vanity (17.5" deep with a current vanity top depth of 18") and I was discussing using a remnant to make a new vanity top.
She told me that between the backsplash and the faucet holes that I would only have 12.75" for the sink and that it would be a tiny sink. Current sink is a drop in over a laminate top. I know drop ins over stone are not at all popular and it's not my first choice. Does anyone have a VERY narrow undermount sink that they are happy with? I think I would get another 1.5" if I didn't do a backsplash, but I'm not wild about that either. |

| How wide can you go? There are several rectangular vitreous china sinks on overstock that have reviews that say they fit in an 18" deep vanity: |
Here is a link that might be useful: undermounts at overstock

| Thanks for the link. I have found two sinks I think may work: Porcher 12100-00.001 Marquee Petite Rectangle Undercounter Lavatory - White and Courtyard White Undermount Lavatory Sink Has anyone used either one? |

| Since you will have very little space between the back of the faucet and the wall (or backsplash), you may want to use a drain stopper that is not connected to the faucet. This means you can remove the pull-up handle/knob from the backside of the faucet. I'm not sure what that type of stopper is called, but it operates totally separate from the faucet....same as a kitchen faucet and drain stopper. |

| Umbrella drains are probably the most popular right now. BTW, mamattorney, faucetdirect has the Porcher right now for $147.50 plus an additional 3% off. (There are also a couple of pics of it installed in the reviews there.) |
