This sink is beautiful and very well built, but installing this sink is a nightmare. BE VERY CAREFUL if you are not a professional. This was my first sink install and removing the current sink was very easy. The design of the brackets completely inhibits you from simply dropping this sink in and installing it. I ended up not being able to use the brackets and went with just sealing it and bracing under the counter with wood, Again, this sink is beautiful. But it is a nightmare of an install.
