Review: Very happy with this sink so far. Had it for a few weeks now. It looks amazing and feels very robust. I found the mounting clips to not be the greatest but they did the job. The sink itself is so thick and heavy that it weighs itself down quite well. One other thing to keep in mind, I installed this on a laminate countertop. Due to the weight of the sink, the sides in the centre of the sink don’t sit perfectly flush to the countertop. I don’t think I can fault Kraus for this issue, it’s just crappy, weak, bowing laminate. I was able to remedy this gap with a bit of extra silicone caulk. Don’t let any of the negative reviews deter you from buying this sink. My friend is a plumber and he said that usually the less expensive no name brand sinks have quality control issues and don’t fit properly or come out of the box already damaged.
Review: The sink arrived in great shape, the box was damaged but nothing damaged on the sink. It was an desertcart warehouse damaged box purchase for $150 less than a new one. Weve had the sink installed for about a month now, the sink itself seems very durable and fairly easy to clean. The accessories appeared great at first site but the next day we noticed a strong odor from the sink. We thought it was from the drain but turned out to be the cutting board. It smelled like manure, we didnt even use the board yet only washed it after unpackaging as it had a sort of packaging smell (it was in a sealed plastic wrap). We tried washing it again with lemon and baking soda but the smell only seemed to get worse, we had to put the board outside as we couldnt tolerate that smell in the new kitchen. We contacted kraus and asked if this is normal or what they recommend, they offered to ship a new cutting board under warranty. While waiting for the new cutting board to arrive we noticed the black PVD finish peeling off on the drain strainer, we wiped the sink with a soft sponge and warm water/dish soap after every heavy use...even with gentle washing the finish came off...we suspected it wasnt coated in the same manner as the sink itself as the finish on the sink hasnt even shown a scratch as of yet let alone peel off. When reaching out to Kraus again to ask about the drain assembly issue and to ask if its a different coating process than the sink they were reluctant to help out, then they stated that the sink was an desertcart warehouse purchase and as such they would no longer honor the warranty. The sink was registered with kraus.com for their warranty when we installed it (as indicated with the documentation that came with the sink). We were surprised that they refused to honor the warranty after they already accepted the item through the product registration and they accepted to warranty the cutting board. We didnt bother pursuing it with kraus and instead contacted desertcart directly. desertcart was very helpful they offered a discount if we kept the sink which was enough to cover the cost for another drain assembly (its too much trouble to have the sink removed and returned). Once we recieved the new cutting board (acacia wood, we opened it and smelled it before washing and it had the similar odor, like a barn/manure...that new cutting board went straight outside...we are looking to purchase a different brand cutting board that fits the workstation, we wont purchase any other wood product from Kraus. The sink so far has been great otherwise only slight issue which is expected is the accessory rails have worn slightly from moving the drying rack on it (the roll out drying rack is great). Aside from the slight issues with the accessories and the poor service from Kraus we like the sink and we are very pleased withbthe service recieved from desertcart.

Seems well made and good quality, but it's not straight, one corner is crooked and my contractor was unable to install it. Will be returning it.
