Title: Beautiful and Solid
Review: The 27" undersink mount was the largest I could fit in the 30" base cabinet (Home Depot Hampton Bay style). My remodeling contractor said these stainless steel sinks won't hold up to garbage disposal mounting. But he pick up one end to the Kraus 16 ga. sink and was impressed with the sink's rigidity and weight. Absolutely no flex.BE AWARE on a kitchen remodel with a garbage disposal the disposal's drain/p-trap did not line up the old drain rough-in which was exactly 16 inches center above the kitchen floor (not cabinet). The drain needed lowering about 2 inches at least but not too low so the P-trap is obstructed by the cabinet bottom. Helpful measurements the sink drain is about 10.5" below the undersink mounting surface (quartz). And the Insinkerator discharge pipe bottom is about 6.5" center below sink when mounted. So the height stackup (sink + disposal drain + P-trap) (10.5" + 6.5" + 2" = 19"). So drain outlet needs to be at least 19" below the counter top mounting surface (again with Insinkerator disposal). YMMV but I was remodeling so the contractor lowered the drain height about 2".Also on the 27" sink the drain opening is in the right rear so could be mounting issues as well with the placement and disposal diameter (electrical outlets, air gap pipes, etc).This sink will scratch but I want a 100% functional daily use sink and not a show piece. I will clean it in the direction of stainless steel grain - left to right in my case. And will use the included rack but not every day.Edit: After 5 mo. of use I love this sink. Yes it easily scratches but now use the included bottom rack exclusively. Hand wash dishes once per day and the rack keeps dishes dry until wash time. The drain in the right rear is excellent as stacked dishes donât block the drain opening. Almost silent operation with Insinkerator disposal (no vibration). The 25â usable width and ample depth make cleaning bbq grills much easier. The Krauss replaces a 30â top mount twin sink that had a tiny prep sink in combo with a larger, shallow bowl sink (builder special). Totally worthless as the prep sink had the garbage disposal and the smallish main sink bowl had none. Hated that twin sink!

Title: Perfect size and depth
Review: I am replacing counter tops and replacing a double sink with this. Appears to be very well made. Perfect depth (not to deep). I like the rounded corners, and I like that I can use as left-hand or right-hand installation. I looked at many sinks for this kitchen improvement and this one is the sole perfect solution for my particular installation. Got a great price by joining Prime. I have resisted the expense of Prime for a long time since I almost never pay shipping for my orders since they always meet minimums. But I am happy with all the benefits that come along with the great price for the sink. I also elected to pay Prime annually for additional $40 savings over the monthly payment plan, too.

Title: Very Nice
Review: Really did not want to buy a Chinese sink, but was the only real option for the size, material and gage we wanted. Packed very well and in great condition. The drain cover disk is a novelty and wonât remain long.

Title: New sink
Review: I had been trying for some time to replace a double sink with a single and the installer who did it for me said this one would work so that's why I ordered it. So far I love it but it's only been in for a couple of days. Like the ease of being able to clean large pots and platters. Hopefully it will continue to make kitchen chores easier

Title: Great Quality Sink & Design BUT Wouldn't Fit
Review: Purchased this sink, faucet and RO system. I had a very limited space on my granite countertop to install it. That was a major concern. I couldn't cut the counter so it just had to fit.... which it didn't no fault of the design of the sink. If you look at the photos you can see the thickness of the counter... 3" at least. The sink and the hold downs wouldn't work, so I removed two sides (front and right) of the hold down slots to provide some wiggle room. Lucky they were spot-welded on and I was able to remove them carefully without any damage and putting dimples on the top side. Once removed I cleaned the opening and I installed both faucets, water and RO and the drain. I siliconed the sink in place cause the hold downs were of no use. I applied the silicone liberally to the countertop BUT but should of applied it to the sink, the clean up would of been much easier.I then just dropped it in, centered it and put some heavy items in the sink to hold it in place while it dried overnight. In the morning I hooked up the lines and everything came out just right.Very happy with the sink and the quality and workmanship. Packaging was extensive and had no issues with the shipment.

Title: Good
Review: This was a replacement for another sink purchased off Amazon which rusted in days. We have had it in for 2 weeks and there is no issues so far. It had somewhat easier screw to install to hold the sink down than other ones

Review: Have had this installed for about 1.5 months now in a new kitchen island with quartz countertops. The sink is definitely quality built and thick stainless steel. Was a bit surprised with how big it is ( having come from a older double bowl sink) and is great having the extra depth to wash large pots. So far itâs easy to keep clean and so long as you wipe it down after cleaning dishes it remains shiny and spot free.The countertop guys installed it for me but watching them it was easy to install as an under mounted sink.So far am very happy with the purchase and would highly recommend this brand to friends and family. Well with the costs.

Review: The 27" looks much better than the 30" and functions just the same. I find the larger size looks more like a trough which made me opt out to the size smaller and Iâm glad I did. The offset drain is the way to go, it frees up all kinds of space in the cabinet below. This sink is top quality stainless steel. I'm in the plumbing business and had a choice of any of the top manufactures, Kraus did not disappoint in any aspects, design, looks, quality of sink and accessories, packaging, shipping, ease of installation and drains properly. The looks and functions has added a real wow factor to the kitchen design. I was not disappointed in anyway.

Review: I canât say enough how much I love this Kraus sink!!One of the best purchases made for a huge home reno. I use to have the old 2 sink type and thought I might miss it, but NOT AT ALL!If I happen to have a sink full of dishes in my new open concept living space, no one call even see them unless you walk up to it.Even though it might seem smaller by measurement compared to other sinks, this sink is huge! Also with the drain being to the side, it gives us extra usable space under the cabinet.Wish I had this over 20 years ago!
Customers say
Customers like the style, quality, and ease of cleaning of the sink. They mention it's beautiful, shines beautifully, and is solid. Some also appreciate the depth, value for money, and ease of installation. However, some customers have reported that the drain cover started to rust almost immediately after purchase and left scuff marks on the bottom surface after less than a year of use.
