Brilio.net - The kitchen is one of the important parts of the house. In addition to being functional, the aesthetic appearance of the kitchen is also a major consideration for many homeowners.
One of the important elements in the kitchen is the sink, which functions to wash dishes and various cooking utensils. The design of the sink is generally adjusted to the needs and aesthetics of the kitchen so that it remains comfortable to use.
However, a woman had an unexpected experience when trying to install a viral sink model that is widely circulated on social media. TikTok account @putra.erlangga96 shared the moment when she initially wanted to install a black sink with a rotating faucet.
The initial installation process went smoothly without any significant obstacles. No one expected that after the installation was complete, the sink would actually cause new problems that made the owner regret.
"The kitchen became dirty and muddy because of the viral aesthetic sink, I really regret it," he wrote in the upload.

Various methods have been tried to fix the water flow in the sink, but all in vain. No matter how he tried to fiddle with the existing components, the results were still not as expected.
"All solutions have been tried: the hose was twisted, the filter was removed, it was the same," he said in a disappointed tone.
Based on advice from someone who understands this problem, there are several possible solutions that can be applied. The options given include using a jet pump for around one million, installing a booster pump for 400 thousand, or replacing the faucet with a lower model although it cannot guarantee better results.

Water pressure from the tower that is too low is the main cause of the sink not functioning properly. If the tower is high enough, the water flow will be stronger and problems with the faucet can be minimized.
"If I had known I would have just bought the sink, I wouldn't have bothered with the tap," he said regretfully.
After further investigation, the main problem is not the sink, but the faucet that is unable to drain water optimally. Various methods have been tried to fix it, but it only makes the kitchen even more messy.
"That's why when we were checking and trying to figure out how to make the tap work properly, we checked it until the water came out, all the way to the floor and made it muddy," he said.

Many netizens have experienced similar things after buying this viral sink. There are also netizens who feel lucky because they haven't had the chance to buy this model of sink.
"I regret buying this type of sink, the water is so tiny, even though it uses a plunger," complained @chyrosiana.
"When buying, don't you consider how many inches of pipe your house uses, whether it uses a water tower and pump or not? Plastic or stainless steel? If it's cheap, there will definitely be many shortcomings," wrote @adnanjanujaz4.
"I also use it, my kitchen is really wet and when I saw on TikTok, many people experienced it too," said @ci.few.
"This is also a lesson... luckily I haven't bought this viral sink," said @nu3846.
