It looks great. The pictures explained something I had never realized—I thought undermount meant gluing the sink to the bottom of the countertop, but what I see is mounting it on a plywood under-countertop and then putting the visible countertop on top of that.

I would be more likely to try it when I do a tile countertop someday. The nice thing about tile, I won't have to be perfect in cutting out the backerboard because tile and thinset solve most all mistakes. The kitchen is ready for a redo, but we keep spending money on Airstream travels and silly things like food, medications, clothes, electricity, etc.

Yes it is easy to get to and change the filter, there are 2 connection, one at each end that you pull out and the filer comes right out. There is also a hose with the same connections as he filter that you can use for winterizing with the pink stuff.

I am going to make 2 sink covers out of the same corian type material with a cutting board mounted on the underside cut to fit the sink opening as soon as I can get to it. The sinks are good and deep but sill leave storage rome under them.

I put in a tile back spash that is mounted on a think peice of Hardy backer board that is attached to the wall. All in all in turned out very well.

I am adding the attachment again.
