Only held up for about 10 months.
I am the only one that uses my sink and after only 10 months this sink looks terrible. It has developed cosmetic cracks in the basin. I even used a grate so I would not stretch it. Not sure if this is a problem or I got a lemon? Very dissatisfied.

Beautiful Sink!!
LOVE this sink! Highly recommend for those looking for a nice upgrade that doesn't cost a ton! Easy to install and looks to be good quality. Haven't had a chance to really "test" it but it appears easy to clean easily and doesn't scratch easy. Added the stainless steel bottom sink basin rack and a sponge holder that were the perfect touches!

    Good upgrade to kitchen
    Sink really puts a new look to the countertop! Like the extra room with no divider in the middle. Quality seems good, but only has been used a few times, as it is in a cottage with limited use. So far very pleased with the purchase of this product!

    Looks beautiful!!
    I love my new sink!! I went from having a double bowl stainless sink to this one big beautiful sink bowl. I think it was well worth the cost, makes my kitchen look wonderful!! Looks much more expensive than it is. I ordered online and the only thing I didn't like was how small the color chart was for selecting the sink color. I wanted a light color but their seemed to be a number of options, I ended up going with Natural figuring it would be light, more of a cream and it was. I do really like the Natural but if I could have seen a larger sample color box online I probably would have gone a little lighter. Even so, the sink itself is beautiful!

    Looks great in kitchen re-do
    I love the size and style of this sink! It can easily handle large pots and pans, and has a nice, clean design. It looks great in our kitchen, and worked well with our small-budget update.

    Perfect for kitchens with black appliances!
    This acrylic sink makes cleaning large pans like baking sheets easy, and the black finish complements kitchens with black appliances wonderfully!

    would never purchase again
    It stains, extremely hard to keep clean!!! I have to use bleach, or baking soda, and vinegar. So far nothing works. I would definitely go back to stainless steel.

        I was hesitant to review this now as it has only been installed for several weeks. That being said, I will base my rating on the quality of the product, the installation instructions, and any customer support that was required. I installed a Moen sink drain and a Moen faucet. I had to drill an 'accessory' hole for the dish soap dispenser. I wish I didn't have to do this but from what I could find on Home Depot's site there were no pre-drilled 2-hole sinks that had the spacing between the holes that would look best. So your option is to buy a 3 or 4 hole sink, use the adapter plate that comes with the Moen faucet to cover 3 of the holes, and then install the dispenser in the open hole. I did not want that look as I wanted to install the faucet directly onto the sink without the adapter. It took some email exchanges between the manufacturer of the sink to determine if I could in fact drill said hole and what type of drill to use. 50.00 spent and multiple trips to buy the proper hole saw auger, etc., and I had my hole. Installation was not very difficult but when measuring and using a square as well as a builder's square, I realized that the leading edges are not necessary "plumb" along the entire edge. It is not even noticeable and it 'tapers' uniformly so it is not a defect per se but more so just a result of the casting process. It still looks perfect but measuring for square was tricky because of this. I estimate that I am nearly 100% square to all counter top edges with maybe a 1/32" variance somewhere. I installed this sink in oil sealed butcher block counter top and it looks amazing. The faucet compliments it well. Per the instructions I installed it on a bead of 100% silicone adhesive/sealant. The instructions say to apply a bead of caulk 1/4" in from the outside edge. This is laughable as the bottom edge is barely 3/8" of an inch in some spots. This only matter in that you have little room to work with. It helped that I applied painter's tape to the edges of the counter top cut-out. This allowed me to be messy with the silicone. Once I had the sink seated on the silicon I checked it for square again, and finally applied a think bead of silicone to the outside edges to prevent water from finding it's way into any spot i may have missed. We shall see how this product holds up. We have a wire sink rack with rubber/plastic feet to protect the bottom and we avoid pouring hot grease or any grease actually into the sink. I am not a fan of DIY plumbing and have never liked working with any caulking so I really hope not to have to replace this think anytime soon. Beautiful sink and excellent customer service from Thermocast. Happy to learn they are based in Georgia USA and manufacture right there.

          This sink is beautiful! I really wanted a real farmhouse sink, but the price was too high so I went with this sink. It has a nice gloss finish similar to a farmhouse sink. It doesn’t come with a drain so that needs to be purchased separately. Overall would highly recommend this product.

          arrived broken
          Like many others have already stated, mine arrived chipped on the corners. There was no visible damage to the box or packaging whatsoever so im really not sure how it happened. My guess would be poor quality control.

            I am pleased with this sink. It was an easy install. I should have upgraded to a single bowl years ago.

            Nice looking sink for the price. I’d feel better about it if it had a way of clamping to the counter top. I’ve been very careful with it due to the previous reviews about scratching. If you’re looking for a big cast-iron sink, you’re going to have to spend big bucks. This one works for me for now.

            Very lightweight! I worried about the quality when it showed up on my doorstep and I could pick it up easily. Looks really nice. Very large and open! Pot and pans can scratch so get a mat for the bottom!

            So far I am very happy with my new sink.......It is very large......nice pure white finish. I did read other reviews, so I bought a mat for the bottom to prevent scratches. I actually bought a bath tub mat and it fits perfectly.

            We found this Acrylic sink very nice looking and easy to install; instructions were easy to follow. We replaced a stainless steel sink of the same size, so we did not need to cut the countertop. Before applying the silicone adhesive, we set it into the counter to obtain correct placement and then carefully taped around it (using painters tape) so that it would be placed correctly after applying the silicone. The tape also helped remove excess silicone. Very good purchase!

            We bought the first one in the medium blue color about three years ago. It didn’t have much shine to it after a few weeks. Boo. We moved and bought this sink in white this time. Maybe it’s the color change as this doesn’t appear to show water spots and look as lifeless as the blue. Would buy again.
