This sink appears to be shallow, is there a lot of water splash/mess?

The sink is nice....Large but shallow....One thing I recommend is that you get a faucet that is curved down not like the one I got which at that time came as a combo with a faucet that was pointed out on a 45 degree angle. So when I turned it on it would get you wet at the initial turn on. Good luck Susan

It doesn't splash but it does seem to drain slowly so when I am washing my face I pull the pop up drain out. It really is a nice sink and a good value so not a big deal to do.

No, in my experience there is not any splash/nmesh using the faucet that came with the kit.

This is a beautiful sink and a partial recess is probably the only way to go. There is no lip and perhaps a different sink would be better. I think once you see this sink you would not want to recess it at all.

Yes there is an overflow. It is the silver bezel seen in the picture. It probably gets about 2 inches deep before the overflow starts draining. This is an excellent sink I love mine.

No, it's pretty shallow, but because the sink is so long you don't even notice. It is deep enough for us and I was concerned about the same thing when I saw it in person. ...2 1/2 inches deep in the middle and 2 inches on the side.

No this sink looks like a high glossed stone. In certain reflective light it looks almost copper. I love this sink, it has character but unfortunately what you are looking to do sounds interesting but this sink would not work.

I have stainless sink and it looks good, but my sink is an undercounter placement so you don't really notice.

Not at all! I love the sink, and don't notice the bump. Our faucet extends out beyond. Someone else mentioned a super tall faucet...not needed at all in my opinion. I really like how classic the sink is and have been very happy.

We have this sink in our master bathroom and we get our share of splashes. If it were in a bathroom that our 2 year old uses, yes it would be a splash disaster! Hope this helps.

I was dissatisfied with both the construction and condition of this sink when it arrived. I felt the construction was too light weight and the many mounting parts were missing from the packaging. This item must have been sold and shipped to someone else and then returned. I too returned it. I know this does not answer your specific question, but perhaps it helps anyway.

MY SINK came with a drain. The sink, waterfall faucet are great --- look even better than picture. BE CAREFUL WHEN INSTALLING. We have a 22" wide counter top - so we were concerned with the spacing of the faucet to the back of sink. Our spacing is like insturctions BUT should be 2" between the crook in the faucet and the back lip of the sink --- if not, the water from the faucet is right on top of the drain stopper causing the water to splash a lot. Mounting sink also needs special care --- glass sink is not always perfectly flat and may wobble. Use a sticky (2 sided) foam pad around the hole to secure sink and eliminate wobble. Hope this all helps. MY SINK came with a drain. The sink, waterfall faucet are great --- look even better than picture. BE CAREFUL WHEN INSTALLING.

Splashing has not been a problem for us. I think splashing is related to the water pressure and how hard the faucet is turned on, not on the sink. If you turn the faucet on full blast there will be some splashing.

I bought the vanity. It came with sinks and faucets. They look great and so far I have had no problems with the faucets. The sinks are shallow so it is easy to splash water outside but I personally like the slanted angle of the faucets.

Yes, I have no problem with splashing unless I turn it up full blast, which isn't ever necessary. I hope that helps. It's a beautiful sink and we are really enjoying it.

We have only had the vanity in place for a week, but I would offer these comments:Will there be small children in the home?Their prints might be more prevalent.If the vanity is situated too close to the toilet bowl there might be some splash residue on that side.Ours is 8" from the bowl and no indication of any residue splash.I plan on coating the surfaces with a Rain-X type of application just for extra precaution

I bought this sink for my laundry room. It is not a typical laundry sink, but works for me. It is deep enough and it is pretty solid. Just like with any other stainless steel sink, you have to use stainless sink cleaning solution and dry it after each use. Hope this helps.

Good Question! I have about a 9" deep sink. As someone already said, it doesn't splash when it hits the bottom of the sink but the water pressure is so strong (great in my opinion) that if you are washing a cup up close, it will definitely splash if you have the water turned on all the way. It's an adjustment. It's easy enough to learn not to turn the knob on full. When you are used to that force of water, you'll never go back.

I haven't found it to be a problem. I get so any compliments on this sink. Hope you will enjoy yours.
