What keeps the Kohler Gimlet Entertainment Sink a step ahead?

How does one go about adding an element of fun to daily kitchen chores and make for a more exciting kitchen sink experience? Well, Kohler came up with an answer to that question in the form of their Gimlet kitchen sink which is taking over the kitchen hardware scene like a storm. It is as popular as it is aesthetically dynamic.

As one of the most affordable bar sink in today’s market, the Gimlet is guaranteed to complement any modern or traditional decor. With a high-gloss acrylic core, the Gimlet is backed with a durable layer of resin that not only ensures durability but chip resistance as well.

So let’s take a look at some of its more defining features.

Luxurious appeal

What truly makes the Gimlet so attractive to the average homeowner is how at an affordable range it provides a luxurious appeal. High-gloss acrylic has the ability to give the sink a 5-star shine, which is mainly found in the most expensive resorts.

And unlike stainless steel which is a more popular sink core, the Gimlet fits into every setting like a glove, may it be kitchen or bathroom decor.

Stainless steel gives off a more silvery feel and hence is suitable for kitchen interiors alone, but if placed in the bathroom it will contrast with the colors and bring down their shine. Acrylic, on the other hand, will complement any given decor and color and give it a more posh and polished appeal.

Long-lasting durability

Though acrylic is weak against watermarks and fingerprint stains just like stainless steel, Kohler addresses that issue with the help of a resin coating. The Gimlet’s acrylic build is covered by a thick layer of resin that repels water off of its surface, keeping the sink stain free for an extended period.

On top of stain reduction, resin also makes the Gimlet highly resistant to strong corrosive materials and physical and chip damage. It even helps out the acrylic to hold onto its lustrous shine to make it look polished and new for years to come.

Versatile and convenient design

Apart from its incredible aesthetic appeal, the Gimlet is known for its easy to use features as well. From self-rimming to single-hole faucet drilling, there is no denying that the Gimlet will guarantee a fantastic kitchen sink experience to all its customers, and will continue doing so for days with the help of Kohler’s one-year limited warranty.

What should Kohler look to improve in their GImlet Entertainment Sink?

Though resistant to chipping and other varieties of physical damage, the Gimlet is prone to crack formation. The acrylic build with a resin coating is weak against heavy impact, and hence too much physical force can lead to the surface of the sink giving away and cracking.

Additionally, acrylic needs constant maintenance, which if ignored can lead to wearing out the resin coating and ultimately causing the acrylic to lose its shine and vulnerable to water stains. Periodic treatment is necessary to prevent staining and crack formation.

And as the centerpiece to your kitchen decor, it is sure to put a smile on your face as you impress your guests with your tasteful choice in interior design.
