Questions and Answers for KRAUS Premier Undermount Stainless Steel 31 in. Single Bowl Kitchen Sink

A:  Hi KRW, Thanks for reaching out to us. Our sinks offer a standard hole size diamater of 3 1/2" and can accomodate any garbage disposal. However, you may want to inspect the flange of your disposal to ensure it is not affecting the drainage. We would also be happy to assist. Please feel free to reach out to us at 800-775-0703 or via email at customerservice@kraususa.com with any additional questions. Thank you for reaching out.

A:  Thanks for reaching out. Yes, our KBU11 is made of T304 Steel and is 16 gauge. Please feel free to reach out to us at 800-775-0703 or via email at customerservice@kraususa.com with any additional questions. Thank you for reaching out.

A:  I remember it being very sturdy and that it was 16 gauge. I ended up not doing the basement Re-hab but I did purchase a Krause double sink for my kitchen. Great product,

A:  I am not a professional on sink gauges, having said that if you have already sent a communication to the manufacturer and have actually called them I would suggest you try again. If you are not willing to wait for the answer there are many sites that explain sink gauges and give you ways to confirm the statement made by the manufacturer. Sorry this is not the answer you are looking for at all, but I can tell you that we currently have 2 Kraus sinks in our home and I am extremely happy with the quality and design of their sinks.

A:  So I take it from the politically correctly phrased answer from Kraus that they are made in China or Vietnam. Why can't they just answer the question? Are they ashamed that they have outsourced their manufacturing? I can almost guarantee that unless they are shipping the stainless sheets from the US, the stainless is not what is advertised. For once answer a question honestly. If you are ashamed that you are sourcing in China... get out of there.

A:  Hi Jeff, For all of our sinks is it the same 3/8". You may also want to use a rubber hammer if need be on the anchors. We'd be happy to assist you. Please feel free to reach out to us at 800-775-0703.
