Read All KRAUS 33 Inch Undermount 50/50 Double Bowl 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink with NoiseDefend Soundproofing Reviews

This is my first time ever to write a review on a product. We recently renovated our kitchen and wanted to make a big impact with our new sink. I do a lot of research before buying products, and after reading about the Kraus line of sinks, thought this one would be a good choice. The description of a 16 guage T304 stainless was very convincing, since my research revealed that the lower the gauge meant more durable and higher quality. It was truly beautiful out of the box. Our was a farmhouse under the counter mount, and our installers did an outstanding job on putting it in. Much to our dismay, after about 2 uses, we noticed scratches on the base of the sink. We have had the sink in for about a month, as the scratches continue with normal use of pots, pans, etc. Water spots are almost impossible to eliminate, unless you do towel dry the sink after each use, as the instructions mention, but honestly, who towel dries your sink after each use, especially if you have kids using it all of the time? We did not use any abrasives or steel wool, and followed the instructions that came with the sink as to the proper care. The maintenance "dos and don'ts" mentioned, if there were tougher stains, to use Ajax or Comet. We never used these, but can't imagine what it would do to the finish. We have had stainless steel sinks previously, and never experienced anything like the results we are seeing with this sink. Also, when considering a "square" sink configuration, beware that the corners are very hard to get clean. Because of the labor involved with trying to replace the sink due to the cabinet field adjustment necessary to properly seat the sink under the granite countertop, it would be prohibitive to remove and replace with another sink. This was written to maybe help a prospective purchaser, to be aware of the problems we have had.

Very nice design but the part brake easy... the plastic base of the basket strainer broke

This sink works great fo our kitchen remodel. Very quiet while running water or the disposal because of the insulated surround which also keeps water hot form long periods of time. Love the grate inserts for bottom of sink. Krause's is a class act and always packs products carefully. Overall very happy.

Love the size. Drains well. Use with a side dish drain. Use with a garbage disposal. Have a question about how to keep protective grid clean. Rubber pads on grid keep from scratching.

I LOVE my Kraus sink! It's beautiful!

I have ordered so many for my clients and everyone loves their sinks.

Looks great. I was worried that the 50/50 split would make the working sink feel too small if there were dishes in the other side but there is plenty of space

I 'm very satisfy with my new kitchen sink, 36inch is way better than 2 smaller, you can put everything in it !, good soundproofing too

I love this sink!! It is very deep-so make sure you check the dimensions-but that is what I was looking for. It comes with really nice accessories also. My plumber told me that the sink "is extremely good quality". I have no complaints!

Everything I ever wanted in a sink!

Exactly what we were looking for to cap off our modern style kitchen. Make sure you have enough depth to add your faucet as ours was quite tight on the back. Couldn't ask for better packaging and the quality of the sink is as good as it gets.

Great sink, love the look, very modern, just have it installed, looks very durable

I am very happy with our sink purchase. It is exactly what we were hoping it would be. Great quality, soundproofing, beautiful design, easy maintenance, a great addition to our industrial style kitchen. The accessories, especially the grate really protects the sink from scratches and looks great too. Would highly recommend this sink to anyone.

Looks great in our kitchen

Best quality ever. My contractor was equally impressed.

Love, love this sink! We own two of these.

Sleek and durable! Placed this sink in my custom home over 3 years ago and it has taken wear/tear extremely well. Plumbers complimented the build quality during install. The packaging upon delivery (custom cloth Kraus bag surrounding the sink), customer service....everything about my purchase was positive. Great company building great products!

We have a total household of 5 and this sink was great the first week, but then we started noticing some deep dings on the sink. Most of them being on the center divider. These dings were deep enough to feel, not those light scratches which we knew was normal. We use the sink to wash and I suspected they were either from knives or utensils. It wasn't even from a deliberate gouge, so kind of disappointed. We thought were being careful with the sink, but at this rate, I expect there to be more dings in the future. You'd pretty much have to baby this sink if you don't want deep scratches. I'm thinking the steel might be softer at the edges and the divider, but the divider is at the full height of the sink so that makes it tricky.. Now just hoping bacteria won't grow in those dings. For the price we paid though, I expected a more solid product that can take some light abuse without damage. For me, I regret buying this stainless steel sink.

the packaging used to ship this was excellent

Very nice product and very easy to install. Completely satisfied. (Have not received email to verify roduct registration)
