Customer Reviews for KRAUS Premier Kitchen 33 in. Drop-In Double Bowl 18 Gauge Satin Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink with Accessories

I am amazed by the excellent build quality and the price being affordable .

When the sink was delivered, We were impressed how well packaged it was. so much so, my husband didn't open the box until after he'd remove the existing sink. SCRATCHES! -fresh from the factory??? probably a fluke, but we wont be ordering another one.

Was hesitant to purchase a sink that I was unable to see in person, but this has met all my expectations, and more... When I opened the box, it looked like it had been gift-wrapped! The sink was cradled in a substantial amount of packing materials. Once those were removed, I found the sink in a canvas-type bag (with the Kraus logo,) which was encased in heavy plastic. The sink stopper and drain were packed in plastic, in solid cardboard boxes. And, Kraus even provided a logo dishtowel! I've had it about 6 weeks now, and could not be happier. It looks just as good as the day it arrived. What a great complement to my new counter top. Check out the before and after photos attached. You will see what a difference this sink makes in my kitchen. It replaced two sinks that were 7" deep and 16" wide, which translates to useless to anyone who actually uses their kitchen sink. Highly recommended.

The sink itself is great! Nice and deep, love the overlay. BUT the drain provided is lightweight and plastic.......separately needed to purchase a solid drain

I am a very happy customer. I was looking for a deep sink and one that allowed me to have many holes for the faucet I chose. I went everywhere and finally found this Kraus KTM33 and I had never heard of this brand. I searched reviews and found so many happy customers and I have now joined those happy customers!

We just remodeled our kitchen and decided to go with this sink. We are extremely happy with the appearance. After having an old white cast iron sink for the past 17 years here, this is a major step forward and exceeded our expectations.

I love the sink, I had a 4" deep sink and it was hard to wash pot easily. Now it so easy to wash big items without getting water all over the place.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This style seems to be the one most of our customers like. It looks great in a custom home of any style. This particular sink is in a modern cottage home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We liked the sheen and weight of this product. It is very versatile and is compimentary in any style home. This product was installed in a rustic home and looks great with the colors and decor.

This sink was well designed and made of high quality materials. Glad we took back the other brand and installed this!

The best stainless sink I have owned. Has an excellent finish. Sound deadening material on underside of sink is very effective. Excellent quality. Installation was a breeze. I will definitely purchase Kraus sinks in the future. Highly recommend this product.

Absolutely beautiful! Worth every single penny! This sink represented the final portion of a DIY kitchen redo my husband and I did and it was the portion that made a huge difference. I saved buying a sink and faucet until the last step because I wasn't sure what I wanted - I literally looked at hundreds. My husband actually picked this out and I'm so surprised!

This sink, Kraus Model KTM-33, had great reviews from a number of websites which helped us make our decision to order one from Home Depot. Once it arrived as scheduled, we found the wonderful reviews we had read were right on- packaged elegantly for protection and presentation; top of the line accessories included; thick sound proofing panels on the outside; heavy duty 18 gauge construction as well as being a beautiful sink to boot. We couldn't use the clips in our installation due to the cut out dimensions on our counter-top but used silicone without any difficultly. I've only had it in actual use for a little over a week and found it only takes a damp dish cloth to keep out the water spots after minor uses and the provided micro fiber cloth is great to occasionally "buff" any remaining streaks or spots. It's well worth the little effort it takes to maintain its beauty. We also used our existing garbage disposal with a new sink adapter and the stopper from the Kraus basket strainer which keeps the styling consistent, but my husband added some clear silicone to the back of it to cover the screw so it wouldn't scratch the sink if we set it aside to drain water. Needless to say, we are very pleased with this purchase, especially since the 4 hole double stainless sink updates as well as compliments the style of our kitchen and home which was built in the 60's. Thanks Home Depot and Kraus!

I love the heft of this thing. The deepness and its width means I can clean roasting pans and small humans with the greatest of ease. Hardware supplied with the unit made installation a breeze. Even the towel and grate were totally awesome bonuses. Too bad I only have one kitchen... I want more of these in the house!!

I hesitated on this purchase because some reviewers said that the sink scratches easily. These reviewers must not be used to stainless steel sinks. It does not scratch any more than any other stainless steel sink that I have had. Which is to say, I give it no special treatment, I put metal pots in it and on it and there is a normal amount of marking on the bottom of the bowl and none on the edges. I like this drop in sink because you can balance heavy pots of boiling water on the edge of the sink without worrying about being too hot for the countertop. The sink really makes good use of space with the large big bowl. The smaller bowl is large enough to fit a rubbermaid dish drainer or to do vegetable cleaning and prep. It is not a useless little small side like some offset sinks. I put my disposal on the large side--this side is my dish cleaning side. It is deep enough to hide big pots or wash big trays. The small side is my prep side. I like the off-set faucet. It is sleek and minimalistic with only one hole. I used the off-set location to my advantage. I needed to conceal the fact that my sink base cabinet is not centered under the window because of difficult spacing in my kitchen. But the faucet IS centered, so it looks centered after all!

We have been making over our home little by little. It was finally the kitchen's turn. We have an original 1957 kitchen that has been very well taking care of. Unfortunately, the cast iron porcelain sink had seen it's better days. We wanted to keep a mid-modern century look so we went with stainless steel appliances and accents. All we had to do was adjust the old hole a little to be able to insert the Kraus sink. Very easy! We paired the sink with Kraus Geo Arch Single-Handle Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet in Stainless Steel/Black Onyx with Soap Dispenser (205196310)

This sink reminds me of a high-end sink we had in a condo. It is sturdy and looks great.

I added a kitchenette to the loft of my barn. This sink looks great and was very affordable. Very pleased with my purchase!

This drop-in sink has two sides. On one side you can put a strainer and on the deeper side you can install a garbage disposal underneath. The installation is quick and easy. It comes with a cutout template for a new installation. I installed it in a countertop that already had the 22" x 33" double sink so it fit perfectly. Once the discolored porcelain sink was removed, this lightweight stainless replaced it. It looks so much nicer and weighs a lot less.This is a high quality appearance. When it is shipped, it is protected with a cloth bag that is then surrounded by styrofoam to keep it secure. The mounting hardware is included as well as instructions. They even include a black hand towel with the name Kraus embroidered on it. I paired this dual sink with a Kraus faucet (geo-axis) that gives it a sleek modern look. With the 4-hole option, you can use all of the holes for fixtures that require 3 holes and the optional pop-out allows you to add a sprayer or soap dispenser. This is a high quality product that looks great!

Very surprised by the thickness of the stainless steel. Most residential stainless sinks are flimsy and dent easily. Dumping hot water in it does not cause it to "pop" like other flimsy stainless sinks Baskets were top notch quality. If you don't elect to use a garbage disposal the deep basket is a great feature. They seal watertight easily. Plus NO plumbers putty required!!! The template provided make it easy to cut out. There's a disclaimer on it to rely on the size of the sink and not the template but my template was sized exactly for my cutout Packaged very well and also includes a high quality dish towel Lots of attention to detail in this sink

I absolutely love the size of this sink. I can now wash large pots and pans with ease. However, if I even look at this sink wrong it scratches. Plastic, glass, metal...all leave marks in the bottom. I have very hard water so I dry it after each use, which would be near impossible if I put some sort of protective grate or cover in there. I also had difficulty installing it as it was slightly larger than the cutout in my countertop. I only needed to take about 1/8" off the front and side but that was much more difficult than it sounds. Not to mention it required a trip to Home Depot, extra money spent, and covered everything in my kitchen in dust. I would have a hard time recommending this sink to a friend.

I searched this site for a sink and found this one. I read the reviews and decided to buy it. It came well packaged and protected, just as I had read. My husband spent the better part of his Saturday installing it. He did have trouble with the clips and ended up only getting one in place and had to use silicon to continue the install. It looks amazing with the new faucet and water dispenser. We even were able to install the soap dispenser that came with the faucet. The only reason I rated it a 4 star instead of 5 star is the clips issue.

Sink came on time in a sturdy shipping box, and included a fabric bag to protect it from scratches. 9 inch depth is great for large pans and pots. Included drains are a money-saving bonus

This product is very high quality compared to most of the other sinks available in this price range. Comes in its own special box inside a protective canvas bag, very nice. The only complaint we have is it seems to show the slightest scratches from just normal use.

This sink has met all of our expectations and beyond. The quality is very high and we were very pleased with the price also. Ordered online and excellent experience.

The large basin is BIG. It's deep, wide, and tall. Excellent for washing large pots and pans. Exactly what we wanted. We're pleased with the weight and finish of the product. A few notes: 1) The included sink clips do not work well on thicker counter tops (this isn't unusual). 2) One of the included strainer baskets is a bit odd. When you see it, you may decide to get a standard one. It wasn't an issue for us because we installed a disposal. 3) If you are replacing a normal sink, you may need to do some significant work on the drain pipes because these drains are in a non-standard location in the basin (which is great, just a caveat for installation). We were a little apprehensive about having a sink shipped, but it worked out well. The shipping container was impressive in it's protective ability. No need to worry, not even UPS could damage this thing. Overall, a good product.

I installed with faucet from Home Depot and it looks great. Sink's Premium grade 18 gauge stainless steel is durable + great looking + easy to clean. The sound resisting insulation is a big plus over cheaper sinks. Strainers are included. Great features + Kraus brand which is known for quality, all at a reasonable price, make this KTM33 the top choice!

We installed this sink ourselves with the Kraus one-handle faucet I previously reviewed and a Kitchen Aid disposal (not sold at HD) and we have loved it from the moment we opened the box! It is super deep and the bowl on the left is monstrous! I can put my pans in there flat and wash them. For washing regular dishes we use the smaller side and rinse in the larger side. Our previous sink, builder installed, was 6 inches deep. Wow, what a difference. It is stainless, so you do have to combat water spots if you don't wipe it down. But I spray a little Windex and it shines like a new penny. Such a great improvement for a reasonable price.

I was pleasantly surprised how well packed the sink came from the manufacturer, you can definately tell they care about the customer! It took me most of the day to install the sink but that's only because I am particular and I read the instructions. The sink drains that it comes with are a nice bonus! The 9" depth is very nice considering we had 7" depth with our previous sink. We ended up installing a Moen faucet w/handle and dish soap and hand soap dispensers to fill the holes. The unit is very functional for our everyday use!

There was a rim underneath the sink thar required making the hole in the cabinet larger to accommodate sink for drop in.
