    i was thinking the same except for belfast sinks which are not steel but how many people have them?

    think i may leave this for a day or two and see if the answers get any closer

    Yes, and they are not silver, rubber or granite!

    Granite
    Made from 80-85 per cent natural granite, which is ground up and mixed with resin to form an extremely tough material, ‘granite can be moulded into any shape or size, creating designs that wouldn’t be feasible with stainless steel,’ says Neil Clark of sink specialist Carron Phoenix. Available in a host of shades, there’s a hue for every kitchen.

    I went with granite, thinking it's got to be the most common between the three answers. Though I'd have gone with stainless steel over granite, but as it's not an option...

    Of the 3 listed, granite is obviously the most common.

    When you don't win the competition though, expect to be hounded by Moben and then Space Kitchens...
