After reading many reviews on the product for both pro and cons of the items, I decided the best way to determine whether this was the right one for me was to purchase it (This was a perfect decision since Wayfair made it easy with a great return policy). I was looking for a sink that will withstand abuse, fit a large week's worth of dishes, and still look great years later. The description said that it was stain and scratch resistant however on receiving the item we were not impressed by the quality of the product. The item appeared to be more plastic looking. Needless to say I returned the item.
