Best Buy showed a similar unit at the same price. But without the copper
ceramic non-stick surface. I'll go with Amazon if I get one.

Do you know/have access to any places that build counter tops? Get a
"sink cut out" of the appropriate size and some 1" X 2" furring strips
of white pine, some wood screws/glue and make your own. The cut-out is
going to have a Formica surface on pressed sawdust particle board so
it will be easy clean ups and fairly portable.
