Inset Sinks
An inset sink is a type of sink that is installed from above by dropping it into a pre-cut hole in the countertop, with the rim of the sink resting on top of the work surface. Also known as a top-mount or overmount sink, it is the most common and popular type due to its ease of installation and affordability.
Undermount Sinks
An undermount kitchen sink is installed underneath the countertop, creating a seamless, integrated look with no exposed lip. This design makes cleaning easier because you can wipe crumbs directly from the counter into the sink. Undermount sinks are generally suitable for solid surface countertops like granite, quartz, or solid wood, but are not compatible with laminate
