Material:
Quartz stone content: Quartz stone content in the quartz stone sink is crucial, should choose quartz stone content of more than 80% of the products, it is best to reach about 93%, such a sink hardness, wear resistance, high temperature resistance is better.
Resin quality: high-quality resin can make the performance of quartz stone sink more stable, longer service life. You can check the product description or consult the merchant to find out the brand and quality grade of the resin used.
Appearance process:
Surface quality: The surface of the sink should be smooth, flat, no bubbles, cracks, sand holes and other defects, uniform gloss. Touch with the hand, should not be bumpy or prickly feeling.
Color uniformity: Color should be pure, uniform, no color difference. If it is a pattern or particle style, the distribution of patterns and particles should also be natural and uniform.
Edge treatment: The edge of the sink should be polished smooth, no burr, sharp edge, uniform and neat chamfering, to ensure that the installation is closely fitted with the countertop, but also to avoid accidental damage during use.
Integrated molding: Choose the whole one-time molding sink to avoid connection or splicing to prevent cracking, deformation and other problems.
Size specification:
Length and width: According to the size of the kitchen cabinet and use needs to choose. Generally speaking, the length of the sink is 5-10 cm shorter than the length of the cabinet interior is more appropriate, the width is common 50 cm, 60 cm and other sizes, to ensure that the sink will not exceed the edge of the table after installation, and there is enough operating space.
Depth: It is recommended to choose a sink with a depth of 20-22 cm, which can effectively prevent water splashing and will not cause inconvenience due to the sink being too deep.
Functional design:
Water outlet location: The design of the water outlet on the side is more conducive to making full use of the internal space of the sink, convenient cleaning and drainage, and avoid taking up too much space in the middle of the sink.
Single slot and double slot: single slot space is large, can accommodate large POTS and pans, suitable for small kitchen space or accustomed to centralized cleaning users; The two slots can be used in partitions to carry out different cleaning tasks at the same time, but the space of each slot is relatively small, which is suitable for users with large kitchen space and diversified cleaning needs.
Quality of accessories: check whether the faucet, drainer, drainer and other accessories equipped with the sink are complete and the quality is good. The material of the accessories should be corrosion resistant and durable, such as the best choice of stainless steel or high-quality plastic material, smooth surface, no rust, damage and so on.
Physical properties:
Hardness test: Although the sink can not be arbitrarily destructive testing at the time of purchase, you can ask the merchant to provide the relevant hardness test report or certificate to confirm whether its Mohs hardness is above 6.8 to ensure that the sink is not easy to scratch.
Stain resistance check: you can drop a few drops of soy sauce, vinegar and other colored liquid on the surface of the sink, and wipe it after staying for a period of time to observe whether it is easy to erase and no stain residue, so as to judge its stain resistance.
Weight assessment: The density of quartz stone is large, the sink of the same size, the heavier quality is usually higher quartz stone content or the material is thicker, and the quality is relatively good.
Chemical properties:
Corrosion resistance test: Drop a small amount of acidic substances such as white vinegar and lemon juice or alkaline substances such as baking soda water on the surface of the sink and observe for a period of time, such as no discoloration, corrosion, foaming and other phenomena, indicating good corrosion resistance.
Understanding of antibacterial performance: Ask the merchant whether the sink has antibacterial function, and check the relevant antibacterial test report or certification to understand its antibacterial performance.
Brand and after-sales:
Brand reputation: Choose well-known brands of quartz stone sinks, they are usually more secure in terms of production process, quality control and after-sales service. You can understand the reputation and credibility of different brands through network evaluation, friend recommendation, home forum and other ways.
After-sales service: Understand the after-sales service provided by the merchant, including the warranty period, warranty scope, maintenance methods, whether to provide on-site service. Good after-sales service can provide you with timely and effective solutions when there is a problem in the sink.
