We spent a lot of time researching sinks for our laundry room that is being remodeled.  Chose the Kraus because of its dimensions and quality.  A plumber did the actual installation and he was very impressed with the sink's quality and weight.  After installation, he even commented that it sure was a good looking sink.  We agree.  We think it was a great deal for the price we paid. Also, we were impressed by the overall packaging of the product.  Everything was first rate.
