The stone has a slight sparkle to it, and feels real sturdy and elegant, but durable. It looks as durable and pristine as the day i installed it.

Among all the luxuries people strive for, to me it seems one of them would be deep kitchen sinks. The sink is solid and seems to be very well made. It's silky smooth to the touch and large enough to wash any pan.

Sink comes with knock out for a soap dispenser or air gap. Kraus faucet has all the functions of a sprayer or running tap water in the same faucets. No need for another hole in the sink to add another sprayer this way!

Sink looks beautiful, however the way they package the sink is a problem. Now i'm concerned about the durability. It has silver glitter-like flakes all over it. It turns a weird gray color when dry.

Kraus wants customers to contact their customer service for any questions, before returning the product to the retailer. An unresponsive customer service adds insult to injury!

Will try to reorder again though. It is my fault i didn’t open box when it came.

Plastic bag that contained the strainer box, trivet, mitt and screws and other metal parts was not secured in place. I'm sure the rattling around during transit didn't help.
