Ruvati29-inch Undermount Kitchen Sink – 50/50 Double Bowl Kitchen Sink, 16 Gauge T-304 Stainless Steel Sinks, Deep Basin Sinks, Brushed Finish – RVM4301

We bought this sink to install under a new granite counter and have been 100% pleased. There is really nothing negative to report, but there is a caution about installation. Pluses:- The sink is plenty deep and with a narrow separation between sides, it gives you lots of sink volume to work with big items.- The grates supplied have removable plastic feet and bumpers to keep them from marking the sink You can take the plastic off and put the grate in your dishwasher. The grates are sturdy and we really like having them. This is a new feature for us and the grate make a great dying rack for one side of the sink while on the other side the other grate keeps dishes off the bottom of the sink where fall and are easily rinsed away.- The finish is very nice. It wipes down easily.- The 16 gauge walls make it pretty solid and the sound damping on the sides helps with that.- The drains were actually the most surprising part of this sink, and we really like them. The throats are deep and the baskets are as well. These are not the typical drain plug/strainer combination that you usually get. The stoppers are separate and just fit over the top of the drains. The baskets have many holes that are small enough to catch things you don't want to go down the drain, but there are enough of them to keep the drain working even when small scraps start to accumulate. The baskets are easy to pull out and dump and are easier to clean than a plug/strainer combination.The caution: The depth of the sink and the additional length of the drains can complicate installation. You may have to replace P-traps, etc., to accommodate these drains.

This is the first kitchen sink I ever had to purchase, but reviewing a number of similar models, I liked the inside rounded corners for easier cleaning (true), extra insulation to make it quiet (works), and also the innovative and deep collection baskets in the drains. A deeper sink also seemed like a good idea until my plumber informed me we would now have to drop the other end of the drain pipe almost two inches because of that. A great feature, just plan that into your plumbing scheme.. Nicely packaged and clearly a well thought out quality product.

This is a beautiful, shiny, high quality sink. It goes nicely with my granite countertops and gives the kitchen a rich, modern look. The finish blends with our appliances, is easy to clean and doesn't show scratches. The sink is the perfect depth, holds several dishes and large cookware. The stoppers work well, no seepage even after days of water. The basket strainers prevent food from going down the drain and are easy to take out and empty. The steel is as hard like granite and due to the sound guard padding, there is no tinny sound when water hits it or when you drop something in it or tap on it. The rinse grids (racks) in the bottom prevent dishes from hitting the bottom of the sink and breaking. Just be gentle when putting dishes in because the sink is so hard, dishes that were lightly bumped on the top or sides of the sink have broken or been knicked. This beautiful sink was a nice enhancement to our remodeled kitchen and we are very pleased with our purchase. We will buy Ruvati sinks in the future.

When researching stainless steel sinks for an upcoming kitchen renovation, this became the choice. First, I liked that it got good reviews. Second, I liked the rounded corners as compared to the more angular ones. I just think that is more attractive. Third, I liked that it came with the stainless steel grids to protect the bottom of the sink, and the baskets to catch the garbage. The sink has only been installed and in use a few days now. But I'm very happy with it.

After waiting a couple of months, I was finally ready to redo our counter and install the new sink. I love having a deeper sink. It is attractive and the soundproofing is very good. The covers for the drain are very nice and work well. The only negative I experienced was that I did not receive the rinse screens. Since I didn't open the box right away, I didn't call and ask about them. Otherwise, the product is very nice. A word of caution on deeper sinks, make sure you have enough room to install your disposal. I just made it with a couple of pipe adjustments.

I won't be installing this sink for another month, but I'm very pleased with what I see. It's a nice heavy duty sink and the stainless steel sheen is beautiful. The included rack inserts are a welcome plus. I don't know that I would have bought any, but now that I see them, I can see myself leaving washed dishes on a rack to partially drain before moving them to my dish rack or just drying them. Looking forward to the installation!Update: My kitchen remodel was completed a little over a month ago and I've been using the Ruvati. I think it's worth mentioning that the garbage disposal is noticeably quieter now. My disposal is a pretty nice model Insinkerator, and because it was still pretty new, I kept it and reused it with the Ruvati. Now when I turn on the disposal, I can barely hear it. I don't know if it's the heavier gauge steel or the noise damping material on the bottom, or both, but the difference is significant. Also, I have been using a rack in one sink in place of a draining rack, and it's been working out quite well. It give a much cleaner look to the kitchen.

installed by countertop installers, so can't comment on ease of install. Finish very nice, like the bottom grates, easy to keep clean, like the 'saver' baskets, only used 1 of those as drain not compatible with existing garbage disposal, however, noise from the garburator is much less now.

This is a heavy duty sink (16 gauge). Well insulated and coated. Nice clean look and love the deep strainers with integral catches as well as the grates. The only reason this doesn't rate higher for us is because even in spite of our obsessive attention to being careful, the unit has already taken on some surface scratches. The finish on this sink is different than most so I'm not sure how to buff these out. Other than that, we're really happy with it.
