Default Number of sink bowls?

If I was to go for a 1.5 model, I'm considering getting this one:

I have that exact same sink. In my opinion, the half bowl is only
useful if you plan to fit a waste disposal unit (which I did.)
Otherwise, it's a waste of space apart from the need to rise things
occasionally. The sink is okay otherwise; solid, usual good Franke
quality. The first one arrived with a very small dent in the main bowl;
the supplier immediately and cheerfully changed it out.


Consider whether the Franke chopping board would be useful. With having
a dishwasher, I don't use the draining board, so the chopping board
would have been useful to me so I could stand an appliance on it.




I find my half bowl useful for:

1) washing hands after using my basinless downstairs loo.
2) Soaking stuck-on dishes.
3) Putting large or greasy things to soak while I do the other washing up.
4) Rinsing muddy veg and keeping soil out of my washing up.
