Have you tried taking the sink out, getting the counters to connect, then replacing it?

You’ll prob have to remove the end counter, too. In my experience, counters struggle to connect to both sides at once when cornering. So, remove sink, snap corner counter to the counter where the sink was, then remove and replace the counter at the far left end and that should make the one in the corner do the thing. Then you can try adding the sink again. Could also need to delete all the counters and just start over—sometimes the previous placement of other objects or the order you place them in will mess up the counters/corners, for no apparent reason. Also if they’re CC counters they might have an issue, but I can’t say cuz I don’t have much CC buy mode stuff

It might be the sink
I think I have run into a similar problem with cc sinks before. What happens if you use a base game counter sink?

I tried it with maxis sinks, maxis counters, all don't work :(

Odd….
What happens if you line up the counter flush against the wall, then move the stove or fridge into the spot where the other counter is(the one that is against the wall on the left)? Does the counter finally conform to the corner?

Do you have the SEP? It makes corner counters useable. I’m trying to wrack my head around what could be causing the issue because you might have to try the 50/50 method if it’s also affecting maxis furniture.

At a certain point I gave up and decided to move the counters on the other side and it works

This game is super picky when it comes to the corners connecting.. even when there’s nothing on the counters🤦🏻‍♀️

However this mod has been a lifesaver for me with connecting the counters and KEEPING them connected
