Beautiful, huge, quality, affordable sink!
I LOVE this sink! We’ve been using it in our newly remodeled kitchen for 2 months and I have mostly praise for it:**Pros:1) AFFORDABLE! We priced out the competition with fewer features (no grate or drain mechanism) at much higher price points ($799+, and then + accessories). I wouldn’t claim this sink is higher quality than one of the higher-end competitors, but it certainly seems like a better value. It’s a quality sink, very durable and looks amazing.2) HUGE. I mean really, really big. I knew the dimensions when I ordered it but visualizing the size and actually seeing it installed surprised me. Don’t get me wrong, I love it. But be prepared for the size. It holds even my largest cutting boards and roasters for easy cleaning. I don’t wash loads of dishes in it so I haven’t attempted to fill it up but if you hand wash dishes frequently you might want to consider how much water it will take to get enough in there to wash dishes.3) It’s beautiful. It’s sleek, has clean lines and just really looks great! I’ve received multiple compliments already. I’m all about function over beauty, but I’ll admit that I just love the look of this sink.4) Cleans easily and is scratch-resistant. I cook a lot and am tough on all of my kitchen tools, including my sink. It’s only been two months but I’ve banged plenty of pots/pans/roasters in it (Thanksgiving) and my husband has even cleaned a few paintbrushes in it (much to my horror!). It cleans up nicely on a daily basis and tougher spots buff out quickly. It seems like it will withstand quite a beating with a reasonable amount of wear.5) It’s packaged amazingly well! I unpacked everything upon arrival to inspect it and it was perfect…the sink was in a nice, soft bag surrounded by foam with the other parts in a separate box packed away from the sink. I’ve had glassware delivered with less protection!**Things to consider (these are not “Cons” for me, but might be for others):6) It has a very interesting strainer mechanism, one I was not expecting at all. It’s kind of like a deep hinge-handled “basket” that catches your scraps. The stopper is a separate piece. I like it. I don’t typically fill my sink so just having the strainer option is a plus. Plus the basket holds more and is easier to clean than the traditional style (no center post to work around). And when I insert it I don’t inadvertently put it in the “stop” position and have to reposition it. Some people will like this, some won’t. I personally think it’s a plus.7) The grate is a snug, perfect fit. I’m so, so happy I read almost every review and question before purchasing! I read that the grate is tight and could be an issue if you have stone counters with a lip. When they came to template for Quartz I was very specific to tell them I needed a straight cut for the sink, no overlap at all. Their standard was a small lip. Had they done that I most certainly would have run into issues with the grate (I would need to tilt it when removing or cleaning underneath). As long as you consider this and plan accordingly, it is not an issue. I love the modern look of the flush cut sink and would absolutely do it again. However I would have been very annoyed if my stone had been cut with a standard lip and I was struggling with the grate daily.8) I’m going to jump back to the size for a minute. It’s long, wide and deep. Which I love. But the depth come with a small price. A) if, like me, you were hoping for a single/double pull out garbage for under your sink, good luck with that. I’ve tried 3 brands/sizes and because of the depth of this sink, they don’t fit by as little as 1/8″. If anyone finds one to fit a standard height kitchen base cabinet please message me!! I have had no luck so have a freestanding barrel under the sink. Bummer, but not a dealbreaker. B) I am 5’6″ and if I’m washing many dishes in the sink it can take a toll on your back. You are definitely reaching down into the sink to get your work done. Taller folks might want to consider this when purchasing.** Cons:9) As many reviewers have already stated, the pitch in this sink isn’t enough to move the food and water into the strainer. You WILL swirl items around with a sprayer a few time and then probably still have to use a sponge to coerce the scraps away. It’s annoying. I don’t like it and I wish it was designed differently. HOWEVER, I love almost everything else about this sink so much that I can overlook this flaw.Summary:With a few exceptions, this is a wonderful sink. Considering the (comparably) reasonable price tag, I’m willing to accept the flaws in exchange for it’s affordable beauty and functionality. I would purchase it again.

Sleek, sexy, silent and very functional!
Can a sink be described as âsexyâ?? This one absolutely can! We just remodeled our kitchen and when it came to sink design, I wanted a single pan farmhouse sink, but hubby, who washes the dishes insists on having a sink full of soapy water. I compromised with this 60/40 Kraus stainless with a low dividing wall.It looks sleek and stylish… sexy really. I was slightly concerned that the square design might have tight corners that would be hard to keep clean but they are rounded just enough to not catch food in them and can be wiped clean easily.The bottom is angled toward the drains so water does not stand in the bottom. The drains are toward the back of the sink – again just a beautiful design.Stainless sinks are notoriously noisy… especially with water from the faucet. NOT THIS ONE! It is just as quiet as my old porcelain sink thanks to the insulation around the entire undercarriage.The sink comes with wire racks that have rubber feet (extra feet included) that prevent scratches on the bottom and matching stainless disc covers that sit slightly elevated above the holes so you canât see the pipes. Love these! I love that you donât have to look down into the garbage disposer! Water and small bits of debris washes down easily with them in place.It comes with a very nice strainer basket for the non-disposer side. My only complaint is that if you have a garbage disposer, (as if anyone buying this sink would not…) this sink doesnât come with a ring that matches the sink that holds the disposal. Which I understand… every disposer is different. But, as long as you have the pretty discs in place, you canât see the âinSinkeratorâ ring.This sink is big. I can lay a 9×13â casserole baking dish flat in the large side and let it soak. The low dividing wall is not only gorgeous, but you can lay cookie sheets or cutting boards in the sink and easily clean them. Iâm able to use the interior racks as a dish drying rack for my clean pots & pans.As with all stainless, water spotting is an issue. This sink comes with a cool microfiber drying cloth for this purpose and it has a removable metal ring in it that lets you hang it up on a hook. Iâve found that after cleaning and drying, buffing the sink with a little lemon oil makes it shine like a new car and keeps water spots down for a few days till itâs time to reapply. Plus it smells amazing.I purchased the Kraus black mat Industrial faucet shown here, also from Amazon and itâs match made in heaven!!!

Stainless steel simplicity and functionality
Bought this sink after a ridiculous amount of research, and it was well worth the background work. This is a rectangular single bowl sink with only very slight slant to the drain–and this means that the stainless steel grid that goes on top of the bottom sits perfectly level. It is very sturdy–definitely important to get this kind of 18 gauge rather than the 16 gauge on most residential sinks. The 32″ single bowl is really useful–holds lots of things or a few big pieces. This stands with the very strongest, beauty-in-simplicity, and useful options. Strongly recommend.

This 32 inch sink remains my best Amazon purhase ever. I’ve used it extensively for over 2 years and it remains spotless. I had come across some criticisms regarding being too flat on the bottom result in difficulty rinsing and ugly scratches developing over time. Neither of those concerns reared themselves. Any superficial scratches that may have appeared were meaningless if at all perceptible. The bottom flatness has actually been a huge plus. All my dishes lay flat, no space is lost in the corners and the diagonal creases give it an outstanding contemporary feel. In addition, the half height 60/40 divider makes organizing and cleaning an absolute breeze. I know this will last me a life and even if it doesn’t, I’ll be being the exact same model again regardless of price.

Bonito y buena calidad lo recomiendo saludos

We installed this sink in the “under mount” profile. Fantastic product, lots of room to work, soak all our large pots, pans, cookie sheets…., it all fits. Deep profile is the best. I would install another sink like this in any home, any time. Purchased the 16 Gauge (it is thicker than the 18 Gauge) with the 18/10 material spec, this provides 18% of Chromium and 10% of nickel, this will provide better corrosion resistance. Our purchase also came with the soap pump (nicely machined product) and the vegetable strainer tray. Love it!!

I had doubts about spending best part of £500 on a Sink but this Kraus is excellent.Superb gauge and sound deadening creates a sink that is rigid and superior to most of the premium brands I have fitted through the years. It also came with good quality wastes and accessories. Very pleased with the final finish and style.
by Neer
Its a big sink and is of very nice quality. I have to been using it for a month now, and the only issue I see is that the strainer covering the drain rusts a little, leaving orange marks at the edges. The sink is deep and washing large pots is easy, but cleaning the sink itself is a bit harder due to its depth that my previous sink.
