Double Duty Kitchen Sinks

Today's double duty kitchen sinks combine appliances with traditional sinks to offer double bowl sinks that can automatically wash the dishes or help cook the meal!





Briva(R) 42inch In-Sink Dishwasher 
Briva® In-Sink Dishwasher

If there's no room for a standard dishwasher, or if you rarely use a full size dishwasher, or use one only when company comes, KitchenAid's new Briva® stainless steel, In-Sink Dishwasher was made for you!

The first of its kind, this innovative appliance uses 50% less water than standard dishwashers, and can run a complete cycle in as little as 18 minutes!

One side of this stainless steel, double bowl sink contains a dishwasher with a standard upper rack, cup shelves, extra-large silverware basket and a customizable lower rack with rack inserts.

The Briva® can accommodate up to five place settings, including dinner plates up to 11 inches, and provides an overflow capacity to hold large service pieces or pots and pans.

Since the dishwasher is located at counter level, it eliminates the need to bend over to stack and unload the dishwasher. The Briva® fits into a sink base cabinet as small as 42 inches wide,.

Click to Enlarge Four Cleaning Cycles

There is a 2-minute rinsing cycle that is useful for cleaning bowls or cooking utensils that need to be reused during food preparation.The SaniRinse™ option raises the final rinse water temperature to 160°F to deliver the cleaning and sanitizing results many items require.

The Briva® uses a revolutionary FlashDry® technology, which automatically pops the lid open at the end of the cycle, allowing steam to escape to facilitate fast, efficient drying.

Lift out the dishwasher racks and spray arm, and the dishwasher becomes a fully functional sink.

The extra-deep second sink conveniently holds pots up to 14 inches deep. The dishwasher's steel lid doubles as a place to rest hot pots. The included cutting board fits over the stainless steel cover creating additional preparation space.

Kohler Pro Cook Center Kohler PRO CookCenter™

Pot filler faucets are extremely convenient, but you still have to carry the pot of water to the sink to empty it.
