This is not exactly as i thought it would be. It honestly was better. It is a black tinted stainless steel. You get all the perks of the stainless steel without it looking like it belongs in a restaurant. Due to it being black TINTED stainless steel it comes out as a dark greysilver sleek stainless steel and looks very modern. But if you are looking for a black sink, i dont recommend this one, it doesnt quite look like the ad picture.
