For those who might be wondering: 16 gauge stainless steel is sturdier/better than 18 gauge. With stainless steel, the lower the number, the superior the steel. I learned this while researching this sink purchase and I'm glad I could compare apples with apples. This is beautiful Kraus quality and I can't wait to see it installed. It's very good value when compared to other products, especially with the grid and drain thrown in. A very good buy and super speedy delivery. Thanks, Wayfair!

Pros: Quality, extras included
Cons: None
