Ruvati 32-in Stainless Steel Undermount Workstation Kitchen Sink-RVH8300

I like the sink very much. The workstation features are very cool. It arrived in a beautiful box, was very well packaged, was not damaged in anyway, Ans was here within a day or two. I have used all the accessories with it and my favorite is the rollup drying rack. Super convenient and awesome. Initially I thought the sink was much bigger than I had anticipated, but it just looks cavernous because i was used to the 60/40 split. This sink did actually have a small scratch with in one day, but I am used to high-grade stainless sinks and I think this is just normal. The only thing I have to say about this think that I don’t like is the slope towards the drain is very slight, but I always wipe down the sink after I rinse it anyway. This sink did actually have a small scratch with in one day, but I am used to high grade stainless sinks and I think this is just normal. The only thing I have to say about this think that I don’t like... is the slope towards the drain is very slight, but I always wipe down the sink after I rinse it anyway so this isnt too much of a factor for me. When I wash my dog food bowls and stuff like that, I do have to be careful of particles that don’t flow towards the drain. I bought this thing during a kitchen remodel and replace a $1500 stainless sink from Kohler, which also scratched within a few days. This is very very beautiful and everyone that has come into my kitchen has commented on how stunning the sink is. I was also concerned about the angled corners. This actually is not a factor either, the sink is beautiful and if you wash and wipe down your sink you’re not gonna have particles in the corners. Very beautiful product.

I spent a significant amount of time researching the perfect sink for my new kitchen renovation. My wish list included: stainless, deep, wide and reasonably priced. I should also say that I enjoy washing dishes and I am only 5" tall since I read every review, praise and criticism before making my purchase. I have had the sink in place for just over 2 months now and I do not regret my choice at all. Pros: 1-deep, spacious enough for double boilers and baking sheets. 2-has lip/edge on 2 of the four sides so you can rest a one of 3 accessories-cutting board, roll up flat drying rack and bottom grate. 3-comes with 3 accessories included, including the bottom grate to protect it from getting banged up. 4-Arrived extremely well packed and had a fabric protector bag. 5-price is very reasonable compared to big box stores and kitchen renovation showroom stores. 6- arrived within promised time, which was faster than anything else I ordered for my new kitchen. Cons: 1- it needs to be washed and wiped after every use if you want it to look like a sparkly show piece- I don't really think this is even an issue, it's a sink not a car but for someone it may be a big deal based on other reviews 2-you need to remove the bottom grate and clean the bottom of the sink regularly so the grate "feet" don't leave stains. Again, this is not really an issue for me- it's a sink for washing and I expect it to need to be washed as well. We receive lots of complments on the sink and the one feature everyone seems to notice is the lip/edge to rest the accessories-it is clever and well thought out. We highly recommend this sink.

This sink is absolutely beautiful and also incredibly functional.....one of the best purchases I've ever made. I have to be honest, I bought it for it's looks and thought the additional work space would come in handy. I was right on the mark on both counts. Initially, the fact that it was beautiful, was a con because I didn't like to use it and get it messy. Well, Christmas rolled around and with all the cooking and backing, it was "Hold On Tight Ruvati", this is going to get ugly. The sink came through with flying colors. I now treat it like I did my old 30 year old stainless steel sink and I see no reason that it's not going to hold up well. When I'm done washing dishes in the evening (I have a dishwasher but I like to wash up my good pans in the sink) I wipe out the sink and a light dry with the tea towel; this keeps the sink shining and discourages water marks. Having this additional work space is awesome. I had a new counter top installed and the fellas that did the installation of the counter top were amazed at the quality of the sink as well as the fella that did my backsplash. That says something when guys who have no affiliation with the product comment on the quality. They see this equipment every day, all day. The only con is the cutting board. I'm disappointed in the quality. In all fairness, I do use it a lot but I bought the sink in September and this is barely three months later and the cutting board looks like it's been around for a year. I do use mineral oil on it about every three weeks but that does nothing for the gouges in the wood from the knives. One more point, my installer was able to get the garbage disposal hooked up......some folks might be interested in this aspect. In summary, I would certainly buy this sink again as well as recommend it to anyone. I think it's going to be the common installation configuration in the future; large deep sink with floating accommodations on top. Thanks Ruvati!!!

I do love the quality of the sink stainless steel. The "bells and whistles" aka added features are nice too, but there are some things to get used to with this type of sink. First of all the good: nice and deep, the cutting board is awesome. It comes with a drain hole cover that can sit over the opening on its legs and allow the water to drain without needing to worry about dropping anything down the opening. I needed a disposal, so I couldn't use the adorable little sink strainer it came with. The grate for the bottom of the sink is also very nice. The colander, which I was really excited to get with the sink, is a nice feature, but it is actually too bulky. There is not enough room to keep the colander and the cutting board on the ledge provided and still use the sink to wash pots and pans or basically anything. So, I have to move those items to the counter or temporarily store on the cooktop, which I was not expecting. And, it is hopeless to think you could use the drain rack and keep the colander and/or cutting board out too. Thus, you need to have storage options for these accessories. Each is great, but they are taking up more storage room that I had planned on. Now to what I don't like about the sink: first of all, it is a pain to keep clean. I knew it was flat, but I expected some slope to help to drain the water and debris. Nope. Everything, just everything rinsed off of a plate, pot or bowl gets pushed out to the corners of the sink and remains there. I swear my water bill will increase dramatically, because I run it so often trying to wash the debris from, for example, a salad, down the drain. So, in order to clean it, you have to remove all accessories, including the bottom rack, and then you have to scrub because if you don't do this after each use, whether rinsing something easy like a bowl of oatmeal, then a film of whatever you rinsed is left spread out on the bottom of the sink below the elevated grate. And, when I realized that I needed to scrub the sink basically each day, I saw little rust spots along the edge of the base. Small, like the size of a not so sharp pencil. But in order to scrub out the rust spots, I need to use the scouring sponge, the one that you are not supposed to use because it scratches the stainless steel. I also noticed that even though I have not scrubbed the side of the sink (the vertical parts) with the scouring pad, there are scratches showing. I know stainless steel scratches, but this is 16 guage and I expected it to not scratch when a scrubbing brush is used. One with plastic bristles. The other thing is dang, cleaning those corners is tough. It's hard to get the small spots of rust out of those corners. I'm hoping that it doesn't fail or have more rust, because it is an undermount with thick granite, and it is not able to be changed. To sum it up, I really do like the "look" of the sink. It is a big basin with some very sexy features; but in practicality, those features could become a pain because of storage and just cumbersome to have to remove the base grate to clean the sink each day. I even tried pouring boiling water over the grate to see if that would wash away the food debris film, and it didn't. And, I'm a vegetarian, so this isn't even meat waste or fat or grease. But given that I absolutely hated my prior tiny two bowl ceramic sink, I am better off with this one. I'm just hoping that the rust spots are not anything that relates to poor quality stainless steel.

We installed this sink as part of our complete kitchen remodel about 9 months ago. The single, deep basin and sleek look make a huge statement in a high-end kitchen. The quality is just as good, if not better than other sinks in this price range. We ultimately chose Ruvati over other brands like Kraus because the workmanship in the corners looked better. Ruvati also has several videos on Youtube that give you a better look at their products than pictures do. At first we were considering the RVH7400 (or similar) until we stumbled across this model, with the recessed edges for the cutting board and colander. Is it worth $200? I'm not sure. But once we saw it, we had to have it. We have used the cutting board extensively, but never once used the colander. The cutting board already shows signs of significant use, but still functions nicely. The slope of the sink bottom surface is minimal, causing food to accumulate around the edges as with any sink of this type. If you have a faucet with extending head and spray functionality, cleaning the sink is only a minor annoyance and quickly becomes part of the routine. The included bottom grid is key to avoiding scratches on your sink. We have always had the grid in and have no scratches. The sink is quiet with regard to setting and moving dishes around inside it. However, the sink may experience rapid expansion accompanied by a pop or bang when pouring a large pot of boiling water in to strain pasta. This happens with our sink at least 50 percent of the time. It does not appear that this affects the sink in a negative way or cause it to debond from the countertop when undermounted. Be aware, if you attach a garbage disposal to your sink, it is highly unlikely that you will be able to use the awesome Ruvati drain and strainer basket that comes with the sink as garbage disposals typically require a different drain connection. Overall, we are extremely pleased with this sink and happy with he purchase. Even though it was more expensive than others, we don't regret the purchase one bit.

These are great quality sinks. Plus they come with lots of options. I’ve used them on several kitchens. Also have 3 of them at my house. They are deep sinks so make sure your drain is low enough to accommodate garbage disposal

Sink: We're in love with our new sink. Before, we had a shallow dual-basin sink that splattered water everywhere and felt like we never had enough space. With this 32", single basin sink, even though we didn't expand our sink range at all, it feels as though our working area has doubled. I love that I can wash & dry dishes all in one area (less of a need now for a drying rack on the counter or in the sink itself), and with it being so deep, most of the water is contained. Others have commented on scratches; I have yet to experience any but after reading reviews on multiple other sinks & brands, scratching seems unavoidable at some point. Extras: The drying rack that comes with it is great. You don't have to use the full area; I often fold it over itself to have more wash room. I've been using the bottom rinse grid as I heard that these types of sinks scratch easily. It does make it minorly more difficult to get all food particles down the drain, but not enough to complain. It's also great because I can set things down to continue to wash and the water doesn't run all over everything, just right underneath. We have a garbage disposal so I don't think we're using the provided provided drain; I have not yet used the cutting board or the basket strainer drain. Overall: Very, very happy. I got a great sink plus a bunch of add ons for a really good price. Dishes are far less of a hassle now. The attached pictures show the sink both empty and with dishes drying (mostly hidden crockpot & large pan, large tupperware, small bowls, utensils).

Very good

This is a great sink. It's deep and comes with great accessories and looks impressive. There is nothing else available from the Australian market that comes close to matching the price tag or quality. I'm really happy with this purchase.

Almost identical to one in a local Bath/Kitche store. The one ordered is wayyy less money, and equal in quality, and 'better' accompaniments. Lucky my husband found it on Amazon. Amazing. Delighted.

Rust appears in the first use. No matter how hard one tries, remnant won't go to the collector. Has to use the hand to do it. Once remnant in the small basket, is hard to disposed into garbage bin. Again has to resort to use the hand to clean the basket. Nice looking sink but not practical. Very poor design.

It’s a great size of sink, but it’s not easy to clean up. After few uses, it has got some scratches and stains. There is no one point out these points on the review. I wished never purchased this sink.
