Comments

Jeremiah: The good: The sink is attractive, durable, truly scratch resistant (at least as far as I can tell), and after using it for over nine months, I have no complaints about it! I highly recommend this sink!

The bad: The mounting anchors were terrible. I followed the installation instructions and drilled the appropriately sized holes for the anchors in my butcher block countertop, but no matter how hard I tried, I could not drive the anchors into the holes. They mushroomed, cracked, and twisted/warped, and only one of them made it roughly half way into one of the holes. After quite a bit of frustration, I finally went to a local big box store and purchased some heavy gauge screws then used them to hold the mounting brackets instead. This was somewhat annoying to me since I should have been able to complete the installation with the provided hardware (particularly given the price of this sink), but it was not a "deal breaker" for me. With that said, I can see this being a more serious issue for someone who is installing in concrete, granite, etc. and cannot easily drive screws into it.

Amazon Customer: I loved the extras that came with the sink. The scratch resistance really helps keep the sink looking new. That is the one thing I hate about stainless steel is that they scratch easily. You will need to dry the sink if you dont want it to show spots, which I do if I have company coming. It came with the 2 stainless steel guards/racks that sit in the sink which I have used to set big pots to dry on. Love this sink.

MRMR: I am very pleased with the MicroShield Scratch-Resist Kraus sink. It's a unique and good looking sink, not to mention all the others qualities and gadgets, which come with it, already advertised on the website. It pairs very well with my Kohler touch-less faucet.
The installation was done in a couple of hours (not even that long, if I think more about it), by my husband and it went smooth with no complains.
It arrived on time so our kitchen project was completed on time.
Make sure, though, to look closer at the circled detail in the advertised picture and make sure you like it, because the embossed pattern gives a totally different look and feel to the sink.
I added a picture which shows the embossed pattern as well.
If I need to, I will definitely choose it and buy it again.

Sheldon: Excellent quality sink well made and the sound dampening insulation actually makes a big difference

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: If you are looking for a large sink this is it!!! I was a little skeptical at first because the price was so much cheaper than some of the name brands a was looking at, but I've had it for about 4 months now and I'm completely happy! The size is probably my favorite thing about this double duty sink, but next in line would have to be the drain catch that works amazing!
The only flaws a would tell someone is because of the size it takes more water to fill, so if you don't have a prep sink you may not like that, because it takes a lot more water to cover and soak you veggies. Also, I only use one of the the drain rack because it saves from having to fill the side I'm using for washing so high, but you can easily take them out or put them in, so it's not really that much of a problem. You do need to have a larger than normal cabinet for this sink to fit, so if you do I highly recommend this!

Jeanne4kats: I really wanted this sink. I did purchase it, received it in 2 days but went to install it and the measurements weren't quite right. The width and Length were good but the radiuses are to small and there was going to be a very noticeable gap between the new sink and the counter top so double check your radius before you buy.This is a great sink, but the original sink cutout is the problem not this:

Melissa EverettMelissa Everett: I love this humongous sink! It's very deep and spacious for dishes. I was stressed that it wouldn't fit in my new house and that the faucet might hit the window ledge because of one of the reviews I read, but it fits perfectly! I think it's a great value, and I really love that it includes the grates AND replacement rubber things to keep the grates from scratching the finish. Our counters are 24" deep, for anyone worried that yours might not be deep enough. Our base cabinet was 41" wide. I'm extremely happy with the sink and the 2-day shipping was an answer to my prayers!

The only downside to me is that I would have preferred a 60/40 or 70/30 split, so I could get my large cookie sheets to lie flat in the bottom. I can get a 16" pizza pan completely flat with room to spare. I was on a tight timeline and couldn't find those splits for a reasonable price. I am thrilled with my sink despite not getting exactly what I was looking for.

C Bock: Only sink I could find that has commercial grade steel/strength (16 gauge) with the look I wanted for my new kitchen. Other sinks of this grade all had square corners which make it very difficult to scrub clean. Bonus was the racks for the bottom of sink basins. Seem like they are well made, not flimsy.
