Kore 36-Inch Undermount Workstation 16 Gauge Single Bowl Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink with Accessories, KWU110-36

What a great sink, exactly what my wife was looking, large and shallow with lots of extras. Our sink was professionnally mounted by a granite countertop company

I purchased this sink collection via amazon and was very careful to ensure that ny tapwear and additional bowls and chopping boards etc would be also aligned with the measurements of this sink. It was installed as an overmount system, by professional builders. It looked great from day one, especially with the industrial sink and additional collander and chopping board bits. However, as this was the first experience using a high quality gourmet sink, I wanted to be careful that I followed in structions about cleaning and maintaining this sink and its accessories, as I wanted to keep this sink for many years ahead. 1) Cleaning: As it said in the manual, to clean the sink, use a small amount of dish liquid and wipe down with a soft cloth after each use. What it didn't say to do is how to manage heavy loads and the necessary scratching that comes along when washing dishes after a whole family have eaten, or what to do when all the baking trays and oven trays are (seemingly) hardier than the sink is. My sink is now left with lots and lots of scratches and bumps. I am not sure a) how to get these out; and b) if this us just the quality of the product I bought. 2) The quality of the sink itself. My plumber, after putting in the sink, said he was a little concerned that hot water condensation from the sink was quickly forming on the underside of the sink, pretty much whenever the sink was used to contain any water or food containers tht were hot. The bottom of the sink, and surrounds, is not insulated, and then a problem of damp and mold started in under the cabinets frtom my sink. I asked my contractor if I should put in extra insulation to stop the leaking hot water that had now gotten all in to the pipes and floors anduer the sink; but was recommended that wouldn’t be much help. I tried to call Kraus at the time to advise but I was unable to reach anyone with expert advice. In any event, you can see how the sink's lack of insulation has caused all this flooding/damage to the base of my kitchen floors. The final thing I want to say is that I splurged on the idea of this sink: that could help central all the ADHD'ers in the house and give us joy and focus as we had planned our stations so well....however as things got broken (refer to the salad bowl holder), and our base sink seemed to frighten us with its gentle constitution ("don't scracth me!" to the constant dripping of hot water below in to the cabinets) led to all those pockets of rust, I have had a really sad experience with this product. And i know I might sound flippant, but this is my first home and renovation .... I was very sick and wanted a place of my own to gather and show family and friends what could be done if you do your research, and invest in some fantastic designers. I still think KRAUS are amazing at what they do... but maybe this product in particular was a dud. I would absolutely love to talk to someone from the KRAUS team about what can be done to restore the sink itself to its previous condition; and whether anything can be done to replace the broken additional parts. I’ll be reaching out to Amazon customer service for help: I am really hoping to rectify this problem.

The sink arrived in great shape, the box was damaged but nothing damaged on the sink. It was an amazon warehouse damaged box purchase for $150 less than a new one. Weve had the sink installed for about a month now, the sink itself seems very durable and fairly easy to clean. The accessories appeared great at first site but the next day we noticed a strong odor from the sink. We thought it was from the drain but turned out to be the cutting board. It smelled like manure, we didnt even use the board yet only washed it after unpackaging as it had a sort of packaging smell (it was in a sealed plastic wrap). We tried washing it again with lemon and baking soda but the smell only seemed to get worse, we had to put the board outside as we couldnt tolerate that smell in the new kitchen. We contacted kraus and asked if this is normal or what they recommend, they offered to ship a new cutting board under warranty. While waiting for the new cutting board to arrive we noticed the black PVD finish peeling off on the drain strainer, we wiped the sink with a soft sponge and warm water/dish soap after every heavy use...even with gentle washing the finish came off...we suspected it wasnt coated in the same manner as the sink itself as the finish on the sink hasnt even shown a scratch as of yet let alone peel off. When reaching out to Kraus again to ask about the drain assembly issue and to ask if its a different coating process than the sink they were reluctant to help out, then they stated that the sink was an amazon warehouse purchase and as such they would no longer honor the warranty. The sink was registered with kraus.com for their warranty when we installed it (as indicated with the documentation that came with the sink). We were surprised that they refused to honor the warranty after they already accepted the item through the product registration and they accepted to warranty the cutting board. We didnt bother pursuing it with kraus and instead contacted amazon directly. Amazon was very helpful they offered a discount if we kept the sink which was enough to cover the cost for another drain assembly (its too much trouble to have the sink removed and returned). Once we recieved the new cutting board (acacia wood, we opened it and smelled it before washing and it had the similar odor, like a barn/manure...that new cutting board went straight outside...we are looking to purchase a different brand cutting board that fits the workstation, we wont purchase any other wood product from Kraus. The sink so far has been great otherwise only slight issue which is expected is the accessory rails have worn slightly from moving the drying rack on it (the roll out drying rack is great). Aside from the slight issues with the accessories and the poor service from Kraus we like the sink and we are very pleased withbthe service recieved from amazon.

this sink adds an instant update to a tired kitchen. easy to install and it looks stunning!

Sink was bent and uses a weak clip method to clamp to the countertop. Would not recommend
