We had twin sinks a couple of houses ago, and liked them. One to soak

Maybe that's it - have dishwasher, don't hand wash much...


Good point. We didn't have a dishwasher in the house with the twin sinks.

Mentioning dishwashers, ours (Cheapo Beko Tesco) stopped draining
properly, leaving an inch or so of water in the bottom of the machine.
Removed and cleaned the filters which were not particularly manky, and
that helped, but did not completely clear the problem. Ran the hottest
wash and that seems to have fixed it, the implication being that something
disgusting had slowly built up in the drainage area.


Not actually disgusting at all given the temperature
they work at and how aggressive the detergent is.
