Be kinda annoying to shave in though, and particularly difficult to clean.  Doesn't look like the faucet has a hot water spiggot, so this might be in a public bathroom somewhere?

Folks who buy that sort of thing don't clean their own sinks.

Cleanup wise, we might be surprised at how easy it might be - surface treatment can matter more than surface area.

I have one sink that's harder to clean than the double kitchen sinks - nothing fancy, but the surface just seems to hold stains.

If you're just using it to fill up a glass of water, it's pretty cool.  But for any other use, having the faucet next to the edge of the sink is downright stupid.  If they enlarged the right side of the "shell," so you could wash your hands, etc. without splashing water all over the countertop, it would be a nifty bathroom sink.

Sinks that have different spiggots for hot and cold water are really, really, REALLY stupid.

Least ways if you drop something like a ring or the toothpaste cap in it you got a few tries to catch it before it disappears down the hole.   :laugh:

You've had a hard night but you're going to make it. Too much whiskey and staring at the neighbor's car on blocks and their hot wimmen in Metallica t-shirts. You stumble to the bathroom to splash some water in your face and sober up. As you stare into the vortex your balance begins to fail and Bam! it happens. Pre-eaten quiche and wine coolers(you lied to yourself that it was whisky) all over the sink. Now who is going to clean that up?

It would work in Australia. The bottom is inclined downwards.

I admit, it does look cool until you realize that its not deep enough to contain splashes. Its not very practical.
