Kraus KHU100-32 Standart PRO 16 Gauge Undermount Single Bowl Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink, 32 Inch

I LOVE this sink! We've been using it in our newly remodeled kitchen for 2 months and I have mostly praise for it:**Pros:1) AFFORDABLE! We priced out the competition with fewer features (no grate or drain mechanism) at much higher price points ($799+, and then + accessories). I wouldn't claim this sink is higher quality than one of the higher-end competitors, but it certainly seems like a better value. It's a quality sink, very durable and looks amazing.2) HUGE. I mean really, really big. I knew the dimensions when I ordered it but visualizing the size and actually seeing it installed surprised me. Don't get me wrong, I love it. But be prepared for the size. It holds even my largest cutting boards and roasters for easy cleaning. I don't wash loads of dishes in it so I haven't attempted to fill it up but if you hand wash dishes frequently you might want to consider how much water it will take to get enough in there to wash dishes.3) It's beautiful. It's sleek, has clean lines and just really looks great! I've received multiple compliments already. I'm all about function over beauty, but I'll admit that I just love the look of this sink.4) Cleans easily and is scratch-resistant. I cook a lot and am tough on all of my kitchen tools, including my sink. It's only been two months but I've banged plenty of pots/pans/roasters in it (Thanksgiving) and my husband has even cleaned a few paintbrushes in it (much to my horror!). It cleans up nicely on a daily basis and tougher spots buff out quickly. It seems like it will withstand quite a beating with a reasonable amount of wear.5) It's packaged amazingly well! I unpacked everything upon arrival to inspect it and it was perfect...the sink was in a nice, soft bag surrounded by foam with the other parts in a separate box packed away from the sink. I've had glassware delivered with less protection!**Things to consider (these are not "Cons" for me, but might be for others):6) It has a very interesting strainer mechanism, one I was not expecting at all. It's kind of like a deep hinge-handled "basket" that catches your scraps. The stopper is a separate piece. I like it. I don't typically fill my sink so just having the strainer option is a plus. Plus the basket holds more and is easier to clean than the traditional style (no center post to work around). And when I insert it I don't inadvertently put it in the "stop" position and have to reposition it. Some people will like this, some won't. I personally think it's a plus.7) The grate is a snug, perfect fit. I'm so, so happy I read almost every review and question before purchasing! I read that the grate is tight and could be an issue if you have stone counters with a lip. When they came to template for Quartz I was very specific to tell them I needed a straight cut for the sink, no overlap at all. Their standard was a small lip. Had they done that I most certainly would have run into issues with the grate (I would need to tilt it when removing or cleaning underneath). As long as you consider this and plan accordingly, it is not an issue. I love the modern look of the flush cut sink and would absolutely do it again. However I would have been very annoyed if my stone had been cut with a standard lip and I was struggling with the grate daily.8) I'm going to jump back to the size for a minute. It's long, wide and deep. Which I love. But the depth come with a small price. A) if, like me, you were hoping for a single/double pull out garbage for under your sink, good luck with that. I've tried 3 brands/sizes and because of the depth of this sink, they don't fit by as little as 1/8". If anyone finds one to fit a standard height kitchen base cabinet please message me!! I have had no luck so have a freestanding barrel under the sink. Bummer, but not a dealbreaker. B) I am 5'6" and if I'm washing many dishes in the sink it can take a toll on your back. You are definitely reaching down into the sink to get your work done. Taller folks might want to consider this when purchasing.** Cons:9) As many reviewers have already stated, the pitch in this sink isn't enough to move the food and water into the strainer. You WILL swirl items around with a sprayer a few time and then probably still have to use a sponge to coerce the scraps away. It's annoying. I don't like it and I wish it was designed differently. HOWEVER, I love almost everything else about this sink so much that I can overlook this flaw.Summary:With a few exceptions, this is a wonderful sink. Considering the (comparably) reasonable price tag, I'm willing to accept the flaws in exchange for it's affordable beauty and functionality. I would purchase it again.

We purchased this sink during our kitchen remodel last year and I have been using it for several months now. Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and here’s why. First and foremost, I love the size, in fact the size is what drew me to this sink in the first place. The left side of the sink will hold my largest cake pan (16x12) and my largest Pyrex dish (17x10 with the handles) so no more soaking first one end and then the other. Secondly, it’s deep, which I like (but some people might not since it does take a lot of water to fill it). It’s deep enough to hold my mop bucket without having to navigate around the faucet so, as you can imagine, large pans like stock pots are no problem. I also like that I can have a stack of dishes in there and they are invisible until you get close enough to look down into the sink. It makes for a much neater kitchen until I get ready to tackle whatever is in there. It is also the perfect place to give my dog (a mini dachshund) a bath. No more bending over the tub! My only complaint is that sometimes water has a tendency to splatter when it hits the empty deep side but I think that’s more my faucet’s fault that the sink. The right side isn’t as deep but that’s the side we have our garbage disposal on and the size works well. Last but not least, the price and the quality are great. This sink is several hundred dollars cheaper than other sinks we looked at but still appears to be very well made. Even the plumber who installed it commented on it. Plus I love the sink grates that come with it. I didn’t have those with my old sink and they are great (great grates, 😆). I also like that it came in a nice bag to protect it from scratches that we were able to repurpose and a towel with a hanging hook. So if you are in the market for a sink, I can recommend this one.

I don't think I was prepared for just how big and deep this baby is. That's not a criticism. I just hadn't pictured the dimensions of this sink as they would relate to the surrounding cabinet. But, the amount of space that it leaves for pots and pans, leaving room on the counter top, is a welcome change from our previous sink.I bought this fully knowing that some people had complained about the flat bottom being "too flat." Yes, it does not drain as fast as some might like, but it's certainly adequate. I think some people forget that this style sink is somewhat more "industrial" than they're used to. You do have to purposefully rinse particles down the drain when you're finished cleaning your dishes, etc. I don't actually find this to be a problem. (I also suspect that some of those who complained about the slow draining did not install their sink in a level counter top, but who knows). The drain grooves could be a little deeper, but hey, they're perfectly adequate to their purpose.Kraus' packaging is impressive to say the least. The bag the sink comes in is really handy for other things (laundry, putting beach stuff in, etc.). The box is very solid.I can't speak to the ease of installation as my contractor handled that.Note that the drain hole is positioned toward the back, not the center. This is not a problem. In fact, it was preferable it means that your garbage disposal will be situated further back, out of the way, leaving more room at the front of the cabinet. However, if your plumbing (drain line) is dead center in the wall beneath the sink, then your plumber may have to be a little creative in installing the garbage disposal.The rack that comes with it is a nice feature. It's nice to rinse food off of plates and pots and not have to worry about it re-sticking to the plate or pot when you lift them up for washing. It certainly prevents dents and scratches in the sink bottom.The insulation on the bottom and sides of the sink is certainly solid and thick enough to reduce sound. It's aesthetically a little better than most sink undersides that I've seen. I only mention this at all as this sink is so deep that you may actually see the sink bottom if you open your undersink cabinet doors. If that's a problem, have your cabinet installer install shorter doors. Not a problem.All in all, it's a perfectly functional, shiny, rectangular, deep, wide piece of steel that will be more than satisfactory. It is big, so have a good idea of what space you're installing it in.Cheers, A.
