Abstract: A multi-layered basin including an interior layer with at least one sidewall enclosing an area for retaining a liquid. The sidewall has an external surface for contacting the liquid and an underlying surface. A liner is attached to the underlying surface to cover at least a portion of the underlying surface. The liner is vacuum formed against the underlying surface such that the liner at least partially conforms to the shape of the underlying surface.

Abstract: A faucet handle connector that securely attaches a grip of a faucet handle to a valve apparatus for regulating the flow rate and/or temperature of water through a faucet spout. The faucet handle connector provides a structure for convenient attachment of the faucet handle to the valve apparatus. In addition, the faucet handle connector attaches the faucet handle to the valve apparatus in a manner that conceals the faucet handle connector from a user to improve the aesthetic characteristics of the faucet and to reduce the number of parts required for assembly. Thus, the faucet handle connector attaches the faucet handle to the valve apparatus without the use of a screw or any other observable fastener, and a separate cover or similar structure is not required to hide the connector.

Abstract: The invention provides a method and arrangement for illuminating an under mount sink disposed subjacent a counter. A light source is disposed below a top surface of the counter and proximate to the under mount sink. The under mount sink is affixed to the underside of the counter and power is supplied to the light source. The under mount sink is illuminated by the light source when the power source is activated. The invention also provides a device that may be used for illuminating an under mount sink, while keeping the light source from contact with water.
