I was thrilled to find a thicker gauge sink for $100 less than in the stores. Everything looked good until the sink was installed. After installation I noticed that the basins seemed smaller than my previous sink. The depth was accurate but there was no mention of how wide the basins were. All that was provided were the exterior dimensions. Come to find out they are about 1 1/2"- 2" narrower than my standard drop in sink. Plus the template for cutting out the granite counter left about 1/2" overhang around the sink which took up more space in the basin of the sink. The sink looks good and is big enough for most things except for platters, really big pots, and my griddle. The price was right but I now wish I had spent the extra $100.

Overall- a great sink at a great price. As other people have commented- it definitely has more of a "brushed" look - but it works well in our kitchen (and it looks great with the Fountain brushed faucet). We didn't install it (our contractor did)- but he didn't mentioned any complaints. (It was used w/a concrete countertop). It arrived in good condition- and with all hardware (as far as I know, anyway). The price was much lower than for comparable sinks at our local contractor store.
