We purchased this sink to go with our new granite counter tops.  It is a lovely sink that is very well made.  Several things to be aware of, however.  It is extremely heavy.  First, we have it braced  from underneath to ensure that it   stays put.  Second it is very deep--much deeper than my old stainless still drop in sink.  Finally, to ensure that it doesn't scratch, you will need to purchase grids.  Due to the shape of the sink, the cheaper stainless steel grids on Amazon and in stores don't fit--which means you have to purchase the Bianco inserts, which are expensive.  Although I like do like it, and it looks beautiful with the granite counter tops it does have these drawbacks
