BLANCO Precision R10 22" Single Bowl Undermount Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink

German Precision Engineering for Mid-Size Kitchens

Optimize your kitchen workspace with the BLANCO PRECISION R10, a 22" single bowl undermount stainless steel kitchen sink that delivers German precision engineering in a versatile mid-size footprint. Manufactured in Germany with meticulous attention to detail, this kitchen sink features precision-crafted 10mm tight-radius corners that maximize every inch of the 20" x 16" interior basin while creating the clean geometric lines that define contemporary kitchen design. The 18-gauge premium stainless steel construction provides exceptional durability and corrosion resistance, while the generous 10" basin depth accommodates large cookware and stacked dishes without water overflow. The undermount installation creates seamless countertop integration that simplifies cleanup and enhances visual continuity, making this sink ideal for kitchens where space efficiency and professional performance are equally important.

Advanced Acoustic Performance Technology

Experience the superior quiet operation of pre-installed sound dampening pads that significantly reduce operational noise during everyday kitchen tasks. These factory-applied acoustic pads are strategically positioned to absorb vibration at critical stress points throughout the basin, minimizing the metallic resonance typically associated with stainless steel sinks and creating a more pleasant kitchen environment. The precision-machined X-pattern drainage grooves work in conjunction with the sound dampening system to efficiently channel water toward the drain opening while preventing liquid pooling that creates water spots and maintenance challenges, ensuring your sink remains clean and functional with minimal effort.

Common Questions Answered

What advantages does the 22" length provide for kitchen installations?

The 22" length represents an optimal balance between capacity and space efficiency, making it ideal for kitchens where cabinet space is at a premium but substantial sink functionality is still required. This mid-size dimension fits comfortably in standard 27" base cabinets, which are common in galley kitchens, condos, and homes where every inch of cabinet space matters. Despite the more compact footprint compared to 25" or 28" sinks, the 20" interior basin length still accommodates most standard cookware, including large skillets, roasting pans, and baking sheets positioned at an angle. This sizing also leaves more usable cabinet space beneath the sink for garbage disposals, water filtration systems, and storage, making it a practical choice for kitchens where both sink capacity and under-cabinet functionality are important considerations.

How do 10mm tight-radius corners benefit daily kitchen tasks?

The precision-engineered 10mm tight-radius corners deliver multiple functional advantages that enhance daily kitchen efficiency. These carefully calculated corners maximize the usable interior basin space, providing more room for washing large items than traditional rounded-corner designs while maintaining easier cleaning access than sharp zero-radius corners. The tight radius creates defined edges that make it easier to position rectangular items like baking sheets and cutting boards flat against the basin floor, utilizing the full workspace efficiently. The corners also facilitate more effective debris management during cleanup, as food particles and water can be directed into specific areas rather than getting trapped in wide radiused corners. Additionally, the precise German manufacturing ensures these corners maintain their geometry and structural integrity throughout years of daily use, resisting the deformation that can occur in lower-quality sink construction.
