It's a must! No kitchen is completed without a sink.

Even if it is only big enough to wash hands and vegetables, a sink is a definite need. However, it does not need to have a 30 gallon gray water tank. The current 42 + 32 setup used on the OSK Pumas would be much better appreciated as either 1 74 gallon tank gray tank, or as a 65 + 15 setup.

I am glad you asked this question. A sink is a must. I am definitely disappointed that the new 33bhok doesn't have an outside kitchen. Hopefully that can be rethought.

The sink is a must. Without it we'dve passed the Sabre brand as

It is a must, it's not huge but it gets the job done.

X2, we wouldn't have considered Sabre if it didn't have a sink. And truly- this sink is better than the Mountaineers that we looked at. That was an embarrassment to sinks everywhere.

I'm not sure that I'd want to give up counter space for a bigger sink- even if this one is hard to wash dishes in.

I made a mistake in my last message. I meant to say that I was disappointed the 33bhok didn't have a sink in the outside kitchen instead of the deletion of the whole kitchen.

We use the sink all the time. A little deeper would be nice but the one in out tbok works.

The sink is a must. I especially like the flexible faucet and hose quick connect...genius idea. I would have passed on the Sabre without the sink.

My wife didn't like the look of the flexible faucet and quick connect - it's a little too utilitarian and not "pretty" enough for her. "We" would prefer a quick connect separate from the sink and a pull out faucet or sprayer.

Now there is the gender difference. LOL..The OK is my territory as I prepare all breakfast's. I also do most of the clean up, including dinner so the "utility" of the sink is paramount. The DW just enters that territory to drop off dirty dishes and pick up a beverage...if she or kids smart off I can squirt them with the quick connect

LOL!

Frankly, I would hate to be a RV makers/designer. Everyone literally has a different spin on what they want. If you ask 15 people, I bet you get 20 different preferences!

I have to agree that the sink is a must for hand washing while cooking.

Sink is a must for an outdoor kitchen. We love ours, although the sink/faucet is starting to leak. Can't find a way to get under the sink to see the problem in our 2011 32BHOK-6. Otherwise we LOVE it.

Very important to us. Would like them all equipped with pull out sprayer.

It is the most valuable aspect of it, IMHO.
