Ruvati 27-inch Apron-front Workstation Farmhouse Kitchen Sink 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Single Bowl - RVH9050

br>br>First and foremost, let me state that I have never received an item from Amazon, or for that matter, anywhere else, that was packaged as well as this sink was. It consisted of an outer box and an inner box, both of which were protected by thick Styrofoam and wrapped in a custom Ruvati bag. Everything in it was also beautifully packaged. Because of the way it was packaged, I thought I had paid $1000 for it. br>br>The installation instructions appeared to be clear, but I deferred to my cabinet builder on how the sink would be installed. As you can see in the attached photos, he built the sink support in such a way that I had to modify it slightly in order to install the drain and water lines, but this had nothing to do with Ruvati. br>br>It also came with a lot of extras, which I like. We've used the strainer for a variety of purposes, including draining noodles, defrosting meat, and so on. The cutting board is also very nice, and we like how you can cut right over your sink to dispose of the waste. br>br>I also like the bottom rack that came with it because it prevents pots and dishes from banging up against the bottom. It's also a nice way to dry sponges without having to put them on the counter. br>br>I strongly advise you to purchase this sink and do not hesitate to do so because it is a stunning sink with numerous features.

The sink is lovely, but I gave it four stars because cleaning out food particles in the 90-degree corners is a bit difficult. I haven't yet figured out a simple way to remove debris. I get things cornered and then try to remove them with a paper towel, but it's not a very good system. When choosing a sink with a nearly flat bottom and sharp corners, I would not have considered that. I don't have a garbage disposal, and the faucet I selected has low water pressure- If it did, I believe I could simply spray things into the basket. In my new kitchen, the apron front looks great, and the removable rack is a nice touch. We chose an undermount sink, and the counter was designed to match the sink's radiuses. The installer was a fraction of a millimeter off on one side, but it's still stunning. Before I bought it, I looked for pictures of it from real customers but couldn't find any, so hopefully this review will be useful to the next shopper.

My husband liked the look of an apron sink, so we decided to look for one that met all of our requirements. I had bought a sink locally at first, but it turned out to be defective, so we had to return it. After that, I went to Amazon and began my search. My eye was drawn to this Ruvati sink. It not only met all of our requirements, but it also came highly recommended and was half the price of the local one! It's well-made while still maintaining a sleek appearance. We've had it installed for about two months now, and I can honestly say it's been a fantastic purchase. The sink drains well, and the stainless steel rinse grid (which is included) is a nice touch. This sink, as well as Ruvati products in general, is something I would highly recommend.  .

It would appeal to me more if it did not scratch so easily. I bought it in May, had it installed in June, and now we're in August; I keep the bottom grid in place and clean the sink with shamie cloths. We don't have any children, and my boyfriend refuses to help with the dishes. I would not have purchased this if I had known this prior to purchase. I was crying earlier, saying, "If this is how it looks now, what will it look like in five years?" It was the only thing I wanted in my kitchen, and it was a disaster. Once you've installed it, you won't be able to put it back in the box and return it. The sink is topped with quartz! Consider your options before making a purchase.

Normally, packaging isn't given much thought, but in the case of this sink, it was. When I took the sink out of the numerous layers of packaging, it was literally wrapped in a soft bag. This sink, in any case, will not disappoint you. I made a comparison between sinks and Lowe's. For one thing, they didn't have 16 gauge, and for another, they didn't have the accessories that Ruvati included with the sink. Lowe's sinks were 18 gauge and up, with prices ranging from $399 to $499. I really like this sink, as well as the accessories that go with it. Ruvati, you did an excellent job!.

But it is the customer service that has impressed me the most. I was one of those who was flooded by Harvey in Texas ten months ago, and my entire house had to be rebuilt from sheet rock to new floors. So I ordered the 33 inch by mistake, but my cabinet was built for a 36 inch, so I exchanged it for the 36, and the company went out of their way to make us happy. The sink and all of the accessories are a hit with everyone who visits our home. It will not let you down if you purchase it.

This sink took the place of an old 50/50 porcelain sink. We were on the verge of switching to a 60/40 split, and we're so glad we didn't. Washing large cutting boards, pots, and other larger items in this full-size sink is simple and doesn't result in water dripping all over the counter. With the 50/50, that wasn't possible. It has a great appearance, is simple to clean, and the "extras" are fully functional and extremely useful. br>br>The only thing I don't like about the sink is that it's marketed as "Ruvati USA," but the sink bottom clearly says "China," not "USA," so I feel cheated and can only give it four stars. Aside from that, it's a good sink that we'd buy again.
