KINGO HOME 13x15 Inch Stainless Steel Small Bar Sink Undermount, RV Sinks Workstation 16 Gauge Ledge RV Kitchen Single Bowl Kitchen Wet Bar Prep Sink with Accessories

We bought this sink to replace our divided stainless sink in the kitchen. It was a much better price than the big box stores, and initially I was concerned about the 18 gauge steel on this sink vs 16 gauge steel on others was worth paying an extra $100, but I have no concerns now. It arrived in good condition and I got to work removing the old sink. More on that later, on to the review. The sink replaced our old one of the same size perfectly. The edges were nice and thick, no flexing. I put a bead of caulk around the edge of the countertop and placed the sink and then proceeded to try and secure it with the hardware. Here's where I got frustrated. This is a Top Mount sink; maybe it can be undermounted, but it's advertised as Top Mount. It arrived with brackets to secure it, and instructions for an undermount installation (see picture). On the underside of the sink, there are small U-shaped brackets that hang down from the edge of the sink. These are where you attach the mounting hardware. Then you turn a screw, and the foot presses against the bottom of the countertop, pulling your sink downward and securing it in theory. In reality, the brackets are flimsy and simply leaned over at an angle into the side of the sink when tightened, which keeps you from tightening them further (can't angle the screw driver properly) and then you could just remove them with your hand because they never tightened up. I tried several times, and my wife tried. If I have failed miserably somehow I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong, but for now I'm chalking this up to terrible hardware and even worse instructions. I put a Kingo single handle pull down faucet on it, and installed a KONE 3.5" sink drain which fit perfectly and both work very well and look great with the sink. The sink drains pretty well for such a large flat surface, and my wife is very happy with it. That's the review; now let me tell you how a DIY easy installation really goes: You disconnect the plumbing and water lines from your old sink, and then try to remove it from the countertop, but it's locked in place with caulk that's been there for several years and is fairly hardened. You can't break it free without damaging the countertop, so you find a sharp knife to slide under the edge. You can't just pull it along though because the caulk is too hard, so you have to use a hammer and "hammer" the knife along the edges of the sink without damaging your countertop. After you've done this and broken the seal on three edges, you realize the back edge is still holding solid. After finally breaking that free by crawling under the sink and a bit of grunting and cursing, it lets loose and you hold the sink up triumphantly. Hard part is over, right? Drop the new sink in, start to install the new, taller faucet and realize your kitchen windowsill juts out too far, not allowing the installation of the faucet. Walk to the barn, grab a circular saw. Cut 2" off your windowsill, which is difficult because you're standing in the empty sink bay and there are cabinets on either side of the sill. Sawdust flies directly up into your face, all over your wife's new stove, and she's got the shop vac out trying to catch the dust as you create it. Finish the cut, grab the sander and try to remove the saw marks where you got a little crooked, and then find a can of white paint to repaint the exposed wood on the sill. Watch some DVR while the paint dries. Now we're moving! Install the new faucet, drop the included proprietary water lines down to your water connections in the bottom of the cabinet and find they are about 1/2" short from reaching. Luckily for you the incoming water lines are pex and you are able to pull them up into the cabinet just enough to make the connection. Defeat avoided! However, your old sink had two drains and the new sink has only one. Which means the existing plumbing doesn't really line up and your new drain sits where the old "T" connection did for your old sink. Put a bucket under the sink drain, proclaim to your wife that it's good enough for now, and head to bed, your triumph tarnished. The next day you buy a plumbing kit, and using the new kit along with some old parts you are able to devise a drainage system that resembles something from the game "Mouse Trap". But it works and there are no leaks. Victory! The last step is to have your wife think you are taking the bucket out from under the sink to empty it, and have your 7 year old daughter walk in and, ignoring the cries from your wife, turn the faucet wide open. Then you and daughter have a good laugh while your wife scrambles to shut the water off and throws open the cabinet doors expecting to see a huge mess, and instead finds your homemade plumbing job. You sleep well on the couch that night, knowing you completed a job well done!

This sink is even prettier in person. The gunmetal really pops in our basement bar area.

We purchased this sink for temporary use in our kitchen (pending a remodel) and later long term use in the laundry for dog bathing. It is a simple, clean design that goes with most any decor and works well in the kitchen, though the 10” depth isn't necessary for typical kitchen use. However the depth is handy for that big roasting pan and will be great for bathing small dogs. The stainless steel seems to be good quality, easy to clean and very attractive. We appreciate the good value as this sink was much less expensive than anything we found in stores.

I always miss the part on the "deal" where it says at the bottom... "accessories not included." Me blinded by the lower price not realizing that the great deal is really not as great as I thought because the other sinks include a bottom grate, or the cool integrated cutting board etcetera. So the sink is nice, the stainless isn't as thick as say the Kraus ones (which I've installed and used and they are great) but it is well made. It has 2 holes one for the faucet and another which I use for a soap dispenser. It comes with an attractive metal plug in case you opt out of the disipenser accessory. But I had the big idea of adding an air button for the insinkerator and drilling the extra hole for that...was not fun...and of course i had to also keep the other hole for the soap dispenser (which in my household is rarely used). Let's just say it was not a pristine hole that I ended up with, had to spend extra money on the hole cutter thatcan penetrate stainless steel,and worst of it I had to break out the flap sander disc on my grinder and 4 finer grits of sandpaper to remove my boo boos. (Read: don't ever try to drill stainless steel of any thickness without a special cobalt bit. Mayhem will ensue if you try otherwise. The kingo home 33 x 22 is a decent sink it's quality is high enough that the home cook will be happy. Happy when the not included grate made by Kraus ordeed from amazon comes in.(kingohome doesnt offer one or say what size to buy) so the sink bottom acquired a few scratches that will need to be buffed out adding another honey dew item to the list before the grate arrived. The grate obscures the scratches... and I'm already so tired from trying to find the right grate size to complete the ensemble; All the joy of the ultra moderne, zero radius stainless steel single bowl sink in this kitchen was not all that it could have been.

Excellent quality. I ordered the wrong size but am happy with what I got. Love the gun metal color.

This product is garbage. I installed it and the first time my wife cleaned a frying pan it scratched it...

Went from 2 basin sink to this one. The amount of extra space I gained is insane! The price is great compared to the big box stores and I noticed the steel is thicker on this one compared to others I was looking at in store! Very well built and has sound dampener plating underneath. This was very easy to install, pretty straightforward. Would definitely recommend!

Once installed, this sink looks very good. There are a few issues which would make me go with a different brand next time. The clamps to attach to the counter are a strange, inefficient design. A little difficult to get installed, and they don't seem very sturdy. At least they hold the sink in place until the silicone dries, then they don't matter as much. The bottom of the sink is flat, not much slope for draining. While that may be typical for such a large sink, I have found that it takes a long time for water to find its way to the drain. Debris will not go to the drain unless I chase it with the sprayer. Finally, on the third day of use, I am seeing a little rust forming in one corner of the inside of the sink. I wonder it it is actually stainless steel, or something else with a coating which looks like stainless. Overall the sink is decent. Its size and great look is very satisfying.
