It's been over a year since our sink was installed as part of a complete kitchen renovation. The sink has held up well thus far. The size and quality of materials are my favorite aspects of the sink. The wood cutting board that came with the accessories has proven to be poor quality. It started deteriorating after the very first use. I know use it as a platform to rest a glass cutting board. I use either Dawn Powerwash or Bar Keeper's Friend to clean and maintain the sink and the drying rack accessory. The wire grate to protect the sink works well, but it's important to clean regularly, especially where the rubber covers for the "feet" are located as they're primes spots for build up.
