Review on πŸ” Premium Quality Kraus KBU14 31-1/2 inch Undermount Single Bowl Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink - Durable 16-gauge Construction by Marvin Perry

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Durable 16 gauge sink. Buy Kraus, you won't regret it.

In terms of finish and quality I just have to say this is a really high quality sink and I plan to buy a Kraus sink in the future. My purchase involved returning a used Revain Warehouse "like new" stating that only the packaging was damaged, not the product (this saved me 30%). I have a feeling it's partly because the sink is so well protected in the box (in the box and styrofoam it was in a custom made Kraus bag), but it's also so strong it's heavy is to wrinkle. 16 gauge steel is suitable for large sinks and this sink makes less noise than our double sink. This is also due to the damping pads and the rubber coating on the underside. The kit also comes with a sink template and I used it to cut out a meat block countertop which worked great. We've had the wire rack since we installed it and haven't noticed any peeling or rusting, so I personally recommend using it to keep the sink scratch-free. We don't use a built in drain as we installed a garbage chute and didn't use the fabric provided, but I think it's a nice addition. We are renovating our house so I actually use this sink to wash my brushes since we don't have a sink at the moment. Steel began to look "milky" after about a month of such treatment. Using a non-abrasive cleaner and the recommended care instructions I was able to polish it in about 60 seconds and it's looking brand new. The sink looks great. I will try to update this review in the future.
