Answer This Question
Q:The installation instructions say not to screw the unit to the studs, and don't appear to call for a mortar bed or adhesive. Is this correct? If so, what keeps the pan from shifting?

Q:This item is listed as "solid surface". That implies Corian or Swanstone, but I have difficulty believing it is any kind of solid surface based on the $114 price. Is this actually a fiberglass pan?
