Bathroom Sinks: Stainless Steel Table Top Wash Basins in Black, Gold and Rose Gold

A bathroom sink, also called a wash basin, is the basin you fit in a bathroom or powder room for washing hands and face. Eureka Sinks makes bathroom sinks in stainless steel, in a table top design that sits on the counter and turns the basin into the main feature of the vanity.

Our bathroom sinks come in two shapes, a round bowl and a rectangle bowl, in three colour finishes: black, gold and rose gold. The steel body does not chip or crack the way ceramic can, and the coloured finish stays bright with a simple wipe.

See the two models below, pick a colour, or download the Eureka catalogue to view them with the rest of our range.

What a Stainless Steel Table Top Wash Basin Is and Why It Suits Indian Bathrooms

A table top wash basin sits on top of the vanity counter, not sunk into it. The basin is the first thing you see, so its shape and colour set the look of the whole vanity. Eureka makes these basins in stainless steel, which brings a few clear benefits over the usual ceramic basin.

• Does not crack or chip: A steel basin will not crack from a knock or a dropped bottle the way a ceramic basin can. This matters in a busy family or a rented flat.
• Light to fit: A steel basin is lighter than ceramic or stone, so it is easy to mount on a counter or vanity top.
• Coloured finishes: Black, gold and rose gold finishes give a designer look that plain white ceramic cannot.
• Easy to clean: The smooth surface wipes clean, and soap and hard water marks come off with a soft cloth.
• Rust free: The stainless steel body does not rust in a wet bathroom.
• Long life: A steel basin lasts for years of daily use without staining or crazing.

These basins suit a modern vanity, a powder room, a guest bathroom or a reception washroom in an office, showroom or restaurant where the basin is on show.

Eureka Bathroom Sink Models

Eureka offers two table top wash basin models, a round bowl and a rectangle bowl. Both come with a pop-up waste and a choice of colour finishes.

SS BS 1616: Round Bowl Wash Basin

The SS BS 1616 is a round table top basin, 16 x 16 inches, in black or gold. Its round shape suits a compact vanity or a powder room, and it works with a tall table-mounted or wall-mounted tap. Comes with a pop-up waste.

SS BS 1814: Rectangle Bowl Wash Basin

The SS BS 1814 is a rectangle table top basin, 18 x 14 inches, in black, gold or rose gold. The rectangle shape gives a wider washing area and pairs well with a longer vanity. Comes with a pop-up waste.

Colour and Finish Options

Eureka bathroom sinks come in three colour finishes, bonded onto the stainless steel body so they hold their colour with daily use.

The round SS BS 1616 comes in black and gold. The rectangle SS BS 1814 comes in black, gold and rose gold. Colours can look different in daylight and under bathroom lights, so ask for a sample or visit a dealer before you choose.

Stainless Steel Wash Basin vs Ceramic Wash Basin

Most bathroom basins in India are ceramic. A stainless steel basin is the choice when you want a coloured, chip-proof basin that lasts. The table below sets out the difference.

Both are easy to keep clean. Pick steel for the colour and the chip-proof body, and ceramic for a plain white basin at a lower cost.

How to Choose a Bathroom Sink

Choose a table top wash basin in four steps: pick a shape, check the size against your counter, pick a colour and plan the tap and waste.

1. Pick a Shape

• Round: Suits a compact vanity, a corner counter or a powder room. See the SS BS 1616.
• Rectangle: Gives a wider washing area and suits a longer vanity or a double-basin layout. See the SS BS 1814.

2. Check the Size Against Your Counter

Measure the width of the vanity top. Leave enough space around the basin for a tap and for setting down soap or a bottle. The 16 x 16 round basin needs a smaller counter than the 18 x 14 rectangle.

3. Pick a Colour

Match the basin to your counter, tiles and fittings. Black suits modern and dark themes, gold suits marble and cream counters, and rose gold suits a soft, boutique look. Match the tap finish to the basin where you can.

4. Plan the Tap and Waste

A table top basin needs a tall table-mounted tap or a wall-mounted tap, because the basin sits above the counter. The basin comes with a pop-up waste. Tell your plumber the basin height so the tap is set at the right level.

Installing a Table Top Wash Basin

A table top basin is simple to fit and any plumber can do it. The main points to get right:

1. Mark the drain hole on the vanity top, in line with the basin waste outlet, and cut it to size.
2. Set the basin on the counter over the hole, using the sealant supplied so no water seeps under the rim.
3. Fit the pop-up waste from below and connect it to the drain pipe and bottle trap.
4. Fit a tall table-mounted tap on the counter, or a wall-mounted tap above the basin, since the basin sits above the counter surface.
5. Let the sealant set as advised before you run water, so the joint stays watertight.

Give your plumber the basin height and waste size before the vanity top is cut, so the hole and the tap position are planned together.

How to Clean and Care for a Stainless Steel Wash Basin

A coloured stainless steel basin keeps its shine with a light daily wipe and a weekly clean. Follow these habits:

1. Wipe the basin dry after use so soap and hard water do not leave a film on the coloured finish.
2. Clean it once or twice a week with a mild soap and a soft cloth or sponge.
3. For hard water spots, wipe with a cloth dipped in diluted vinegar, then rinse and dry. Do this now and then, not daily.
4. Do not use steel wool, scouring powder or a hard scrub, as these can scratch the coloured finish.
5. Keep strong acid and bleach cleaners off the basin, since they can dull the gold and rose gold finishes.
6. Wipe up hair dye, mehndi and strong-colour liquids soon after use so they do not leave a mark.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bathroom Sinks

What is the difference between a bathroom sink and a wash basin?

They mean the same thing. A bathroom sink, or wash basin, is the basin fitted in a bathroom or powder room for washing hands and face. Eureka makes stainless steel table top wash basins in round and rectangle shapes.

What is a table top wash basin?

A table top wash basin sits on top of the vanity counter instead of being sunk into it. The whole basin is on show, which makes it the main feature of the vanity. It needs a tall or wall-mounted tap because it sits above the counter.

Are stainless steel wash basins good for bathrooms?

Yes. A stainless steel basin does not crack or chip like ceramic, comes in colours such as black, gold and rose gold, and is light and easy to fit. It suits a modern vanity, a powder room or a reception washroom.

What sizes do Eureka bathroom sinks come in?

Eureka offers a 16 x 16 inch round bowl (SS BS 1616) and an 18 x 14 inch rectangle bowl (SS BS 1814). The round basin suits a compact vanity and the rectangle basin suits a longer counter.

What colours are available?

The round basin comes in black and gold. The rectangle basin comes in black, gold and rose gold. The colour is bonded onto the steel body, so it holds up with daily use.

Which tap suits a table top wash basin?

Because the basin sits above the counter, use a tall table-mounted tap or a wall-mounted tap. A standard short tap will sit too low. Match the tap finish to the basin colour where you can.

Do the basins come with a waste fitting?

Yes. Both models come with a pop-up waste. Your plumber connects it to the drain pipe and bottle trap during installation.

How do I clean a coloured stainless steel basin?

Wipe it dry after use and clean it once or twice a week with mild soap and a soft cloth. Use diluted vinegar for hard water spots. Avoid steel wool, scouring powder, bleach and acid cleaners, which can scratch or dull the finish.
