   I bought this sink for my wife with the pictured faucet as a birthday gift. Both are Kraus. I, having never installed a kitchen sink, was a little apprehensive about the install. I did all my research and made one trip to Home Depot for the things needed to install (Tail piece extension for plumbing modification, silicone, PVC cutter, Kraus drain cover, plumber’s putty and a 5mm underlayment to cover up the water damaged flooring of the cabinet – it’s temporary). I also got a new Insinkerator disposal mounting kit with gasket for disposal because the other one was scratched and worn. I got back home and proceeded to remove the 20 years worth of cleaners and stuff from under the sink. My hope was that the plumbing would line up perfect where my existing sink drain was and that the sink would fit perfect in the opening. Once I got the old out and dry fit the new sink there was a sigh of relief. The contractor cut the opening slightly larger than they should have for the prior sink so the new sink just barely fit and covered. It’s close but it is covered. I had to use the black spacers that come with the sink install kit in order to tighten it down to the counter top. After dry fitting several times and making sure I had everything in order I ran one bead of clear silicone around the perimeter of the sink and set it in the opening. I adjusted it from side to side and front to back to make sure it was exactly where it needed to be then I started tightening down the mounting clamps. I like the hardware the sink comes with – the mounting clamps fasten to the sink with phillips head screws before you install then all you have to do is spin the clamp 45 degrees and tighten the phillips screws to snug it to the counter top. I tightened the screws like you would a wheel on a car – then I went around and snugged them down. I installed the disposal next and the tail piece lined up perfect with the p-trap as I had hoped it would. I measured and cut the tail piece and buttoned up the plumbing. Then I installed the faucet which is super easy. Drop it in the hole, tighten the nut hand tight then there are two locking screws with phillips head. After that all you have to do is hook up your water supply lines and turn the water back on. The description says you need a 36″ wide cabinet but you can see in the images my cabinet is 34.5″ inside and it fits perfect. There was plenty of room to mount the clips – you will need a long #2 phillips screwdriver. It also comes with the hardware for an under mount if that fits your application. It comes with a drain as well if you do not have a disposal. The sink comes with knock outs for a soap dispenser or air gap. I ordered the Kraus faucet with air gap because it was the only spot free stainless option. I did not use the air gap. I ran a loop up higher than where the line feeds into the disposal (found that handy info on YouTube) and zip tied it to one of the mounting clamps to hold it. All in all she loves it. The Kraus faucet with this Kraus sink is a perfect match. The sink is solid and seems to be very well made. The faucet feels high quality / heavy. The basin of the sink is huge compared to what we had and she loves the single drain on the right – you have a lot more surface area to use in the sink. She can now fit an entire pot, skillet or cookie sheet in the sink without it hanging out the top. This was a nice, inexpensive upgrade. When I ordered both items the faucet was $209 and the sink was $206. Both items arrived days earlier than krausoutlet.com promised so that was a bonus. We love the sink and not a single thing went wrong during the install. Everything went exactly the way I wanted. Not the way I expected which would have been just short of a disaster like most projects around here. The Kraus faucet I installed is the KPF-1610SFS – https://www.krausoutlet.com.com/gp/product/B0956JW96Z/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1 If you are looking for something that won’t break the bank but looks like it did – this is a great combo. Everyone who has seen it says “I don’t even want to know what that cost”. I was looking at stainless sinks before I found this one and I’m so glad we went this route over stainless. It is top notch. Five stars for sure.

   Very happy with this sink. Good quality. Unlike a lot of the other reviews there were no cracks. Good value for the price.

   Really like the sink. Nice and deep and so far easy to clean. Plumber said he wasn’t cracked on the gasket for drain but it works.

   The box came late and completely destroyed, I thought the sink would be the same within …shocking enough the sink survived its journey to the Yukon unmarked due to the styrofoam.
   The offset drains made it not possible for myself to install as DIY so I hired someone. It looks great and it’s very deep. I m pleased with it!

   Se mancha fácil. Importante darle de cuando en cuando una limpiada con un paño con aceite de cocina y brilla increible

   I absolutely love this sink. The only downfall of it has nothing to do with the sink itself and everything to do with krausoutlet.com.

   The sink itself is large, beautiful and I love the side drain. The construction and materials used were quality and going from the typical double bowl stainless sink to this is amazing. It’s easy to clean, looks great and is huge. The drain itself is of good quality, and the strainer supplied works as a strainer and plug so no need for multiple bits hanging out. Compared to the drain with our old sink this all just works and makes sense.

   As for my issue with krausoutlet.com I ordered the sink and didn’t receive it for a month which delayed my kitchen Reno. I had to stay ontop of krausoutlet.com but constantly reaching out to them and getting the same response – it’s shipping – when it was in fact never shipping. If I were to suggest anything I would order it from your local store like Home Depot who had it for a comparable price. Unfortunately they would not let me cancel my order.

    We were surprised at the audacity of the KRAUS sink manufacturer to place a small metal plaque on the back wall of the sink proudly proclaiming their quality craftsmanship. And, rightly so.
    To me a sink, was a sink, was a sink… until we bought this & our plumber installed it. It dropped into same opening as our old sink. That’s where the similarities ended. Who would ever have thought having a deeper sink would make a difference. It made it easier to soak 13×9 casserole dishes flat. The ability to fill stew pots & rinse items without worry of water splattering everywhere.
    The texture & color, amazing. The nice rounded edges. If we ever need to buy another sink, we will definitely look through their product line before considering any other brand.
    BTW, matching the black KRAUS sink with Champagne Bronze DELTA faucet & other sink accessories was a good choice. Overall, we’re very pleased with our purchase.
    Would we recommend to family & friends? Absolutely.

    Sink came in excellent condition (no cracks or scratches) and installers had no problem with it. We did this in a new build house so it was installed along with our countertops at the same time. I ordered the black drain separately (from Kraus) and love that it has a cohesive look with the sink being a perfect match. It’s easy to clean and even if you end up with white etching from mineral deposits or harsh cleaners, it can be restored easily (so I have read). So far I haven’t had to do that though. Have had it now for about 6 months. The depth is great and allows me to clean deep pots with no problem. We also haven’t had any issues with scratching the surface. Would definitely purchase again.

    i love how big this sink is. very easy to install. came with top mount and undermount hardware. (i would have preferred undermount but the existing hole was too big) feels very sturdy, especially compared to the stainless steel sink we replaced. and it comes with an oven mitt!?!
