  • Not very, to be fair, and still very much usable.

    It's manky where it overhangs the sink (because no drip edge, ffs...), with a small bit of rot in the corner, and the tap hole has had to be epoxied up.

    I mostly hate it out of principle.

    Sounds familiar.

    Ours was pretty fucked but a day spent on it with scrapers / sanders / filler / wax oil bought it back to life.

    Fair. If the install is sub standard then the wood is going to really suffer.

    I've seen you post about this before. So I'm really curious as to what about this design is fundamentally inferior?

    Asides from the material choice, to me the issue looks like the tap, not the sink... and to some extent wiping up excess water.

    If it was over, then surely you'd have water build up on top where the sink meets the wood? Which would only be solved by wiping up excess water.
