RVH8300

I purchased these for our new kitchen remodel. Wow. This is equivalent to a lot pricier models out there. Installation was easy and same as any other sink. It’s an incredible value for your money as it comes very well made and with all the accessories that would cost alot more. Thickness is perfect and scratch resistant.

30" under mount Ruvati: Update - I have had the sink installed for 13 months and I LOVE IT. I can't believe the difference it has made from my previous double basin sink. The depth of the sink means I never have an issue getting pans clean without getting water everywhere. Others commentating have reported problems with rust spots appearing in a very short amount of time. I have had no such problems. I don't do anything special re: cleaning, just a soft sponge and Dawn soap. Pre-install comment: Unboxed product 2 months pre-install to inspect wooden accessories as others had complained. Mine were gorgeous and in great shape, nothing worn or misshapen. All expected parts and accessories were included. Other comments indicated there was no gradient to the bottom of the sink to aid drainage despite the product description. I wasn't sure if this comment would hold for the 30" model but, unfortunately, it does. The bottom feels completely flat. I actually do not care about that but others might. Update: The bottom feels flat but 13 months post install and I can say there is zero problem with drainage. It's a gorgeous product and with all the included accessories, I don't think you'll find a better price out there.

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.

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.

In reading other people‘s reviews, I finally made our decision to buy the Ruvati single bowl sink. We love it. There is so much room I can easily wash any pan in the house. I had read reviews about problems with drainage and spots. These were the main 2 issues that was in almost all reviews for any brand. I guess its a matter of opinion. We feel that there is enough slope in the sink that water drains fine. Yes you do need a faucet with a sprayer, to wash big food particles on down to the drain, but that no big deal. I clean my sink anyway. I love the drain basket thing that catches and collect all the food. It works great and it sets deeper in the drain so when water hits it , all the food doesn’t wash out into the sink. If your worried about water spots, well wipe it down. Thats gets old , because we use ours to much. Heres a trick, spray car detail wax onto the beautiful brush stainless steel and it will help with cleanliness. The is a beautiful, fantastic sink that has plenty of room and we absolutely love it and Im so glad we didn’t buy another brand. It just looks n feels fancy. We got the work station and I don’t have the words to express our enthusiasm with our sink. Proud to show it off. PS. if you herd rumors about it rusting, well that’s crazy and just rumors. This things has way to much quality for any rusting. A must buy.

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

This is actually the third workstation sink I have purchased. They look super stylish and are tremendously utilitarian as well. That being said, you need to be aware of some special issue with these type of sinks before you buy. First of all, they're stainless steel, not scratchless steel. Stainless steel gets worn with age and that is part of its charm for many of us. Don's buy this sink if you're expecting perfection because that's not what this sink is about. It's a very utilitarian sink -- it works hard. It works so hard that you need to do extra to keep it clean. You cannot leave food particles in the bottom of the sink for days on end. The grate helps separate the debris from the dishes, but it can get slimey if you don't keep it clean. If you wait too long, the grate is difficult to clean. There's a food trap which fits in the drain and really helps keep your pipes clean. The cutting board is handy because you can cut right over the sink, making cleanup easier. I even like that it's deep enough to hide what you put in it (particularly when covered by the accessories) so you don't have to clean up right away! It's a nice size-- big enough to e useful but a nice size to fit in an island. I installed mine sideways to the main kitchen work area to keep the kids out of my way when I cook. bWorkstation Sinks aren't about just washing pots and pans anymore -- this sink works as hard as you do to make meal prep faster and easier.

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.

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.

Arrived on time, well packed and as advertised. Nice size and can't wait to use it.
