Overhead sinks allow the most rational use of the space of a cramped room. They are installed on the countertop, making the furniture in the bathroom multifunctional. Today, in specialized stores in Russia, products from different materials are presented, they differ in shape, overall dimensions and cost. The recommendations of our experts will help you find a model that will not only be comfortable and practical, but will make the interior even more elegant.

Selection Guide


Shapes and sizes. Manufacturers of overhead sinks, meeting the needs of consumers, offer models of various shapes and sizes.

  1. As for the appearance, the most popular today are shells with a round, oval and rectangular shape. They are the easiest to fit into different interior styles. Exotic lovers can choose the shape of a flower, a triangle, a boat or a drop.
  2. But in pursuit of sophistication and individuality, one should not forget about the size of the product. This applies not only to the diameter of the bowl, width or depth. It is important to consider the height of the sink. Some small models cause a lot of trouble with cleaning the room due to splashes flying in different directions.


Material. Overhead sinks are made from different materials. Some of them are very popular in our country today.

  1. Models made of sanitary porcelain and faience are equally in demand. These materials are resistant to mechanical stress and household chemicals. The smooth surface does not retain moisture and dirt, so it will not be difficult to maintain the dazzling whiteness of the washstand.
  2. Glass shells seem airy and elegant. Since even a drop of water leaves a noticeable mark on the surface, it is better to give preference to matte models.
  3. Stone sinks are most often made of artificial marble. The material is highly durable, aesthetic and durable. And only with careless handling can chips or microcracks appear.
  4. So far, acrylic washstands are not widely used in Russia. Experts consider the strengths of the material to be an affordable price, lightness, and a wide selection of shapes.
  5. Wooden overhead sinks can be called exclusive at all. They can become a real decoration of any bathroom. Since the wood is impregnated with special water-repellent compounds, the product should be taken care of strictly according to the manufacturer’s instructions.


holes. Not all sinks have the necessary openings for connection to the water supply and sewerage system.

  1. Most manufacturers make a drain hole. But before buying, you should pay attention to the diameter of the hole. It can be difficult to find a siphon for some models.
  2. The mixer is not always mounted in the sink, so many models come without a corresponding hole. Sometimes manufacturers make markings on the side of the bowl, according to which one or two holes can be made independently.
  3. To prevent water from overflowing over the edges after filling the sink, special holes are made to which sewer hoses are connected. In some models, a waste and overflow system is supplied with the sink.

We have selected 8 of the best overhead sinks for review. All these models are sold in the trade network of our country. When distributing positions, the editors of the journal expertology relied on the opinion of the expert community, taking into account the feedback from Russian consumers.
