Kraus KHU15 PAX 14.5-Inch Undermount Kitchen Sink in Satin Finish - Perfect for Modern Kitchens, Bathrooms & RV Remodels

Love this nice deep sink! Perfect for the utility sink.What I bought this sink for was its size. At first my contractor said it was too large as would not drain. But I insisted that we install it. I am glad we did it. It fits perfectly into any normal counter size and drains just fine. This was for a garage and I needed to put watering buckets etc. easily in to it..This sink is very sturdy and worth the money spent.I love this sink because of its design and sheer size. Can pile up dishes in it during a cocktail party and the counters don’t get cluttered. There are a couple down sides everyone should know about. I’ve seen other reviewers mention these things too and decided to write a review so that potential buyers are aware that these points are real. I’ve had the sink for 2 years - long enough to experience the down sides. 1) the bottom does not have enough angle to drain completely. You will get really good at using your sprayer to get the little particles down the drain and you will waste a lot of water doing so. I’ve been so annoyed with this little ritual and having to get into the corners to get the crumbs down the drain that I finally decided to write a review so that others will know whAt they’re getting into 2) everyone who mentions this next point is correct - you will need a special Kraus adapter for the square drain if you plan to connect it to a disposal. I just did it recently and it worked well, but I did have to buy the adapter that another reviewer mentioned. 3) it’s a very deep sink which I love, but be sure you have a ample space in your cabinet to accommodate the disposal underneath the deep sink. I barely made it and was relieved that it just barely fit. I do love the look, quality and size of the sink but really wished it drained better. A sink is something you use everyday and this issue is likely to get annoying.This sink is very well made and a great value. Excellent quality. I have it installed on a 30 inch Ikea Sektion sink cabinet, with a quartz countertop - looks and works great. Since i was putting in a garbage disposal, i bought the adapter for that as well, which is necessary. Love the benefits of such a deep sink - you can't see the dirty dishes inside from a distance, and it's very sleek looking. It is easy to also easy to clean. I am 5'2", and it's not too deep for me to reach items inside easily.The reason i took a star off is because i did run into unexpected plumbing costs with the install. Between the sink, the adapter and the disposal, the plumbing connection ended up being a few inches lower than where it should be, so the plumber had to run a separate line below the crawl space to accommodate that, which cost me extra. I was surprised by that - my previous sink was 9" deep (vs 10" for this one), so i was not expecting an issue. But between the extra one inch and the adapter, it was too low! Just something to be aware of - I now realize i would have run into that issue with any other similarly deep sink as well, but it's better to make an informed decision without surprises. If I had not put in a disposal, probably would not have been an issue though (i used a compact disposal anyway). Overall, I do love the product.Better than what will be found on the shelves at Home Depot or Lowe’sI really love this sink. It's huge! perfect size for half sheet pans and large pots. It's pretty deep and I was worried it wouldn't fit in our tiny sink space that we had in our older farm home, but it fits great! It's a pretty tight in the back so it makes it hard to maintain the underside with the faucet (we have to redo the dishwasher line and just haven't done it because of that). Beautiful stainless steel. Sleek straight lines. Very modern looking. The rack is great. They padded the sink very well too. Comes packed in a huge black bag, packed very well with corners padded and a heavy duty box that we used when we moved. I've had this sink for over 3 months now and have not had the rusting issue that some others have had. It's huge and I love it!I have one issue with this sink. It has a square drain. The strainer that comes with it does not catch a lot of the stuff that gets washed off. Finding a strainer that I would usually buy for regular sinks is out of the question since they do not make square ones (yet!). I live with a septic tank, so I can't be washing everything down the drain. Maybe I'm using the strainer wrong. I set it in the hole and push it down slightly, but stuff gets stuck between the drain and the strainer and eventually just gets washed down the drain. Oh well.I absolutley love this! I purchased it as a utility/ laundry sink but it is quality product that would look beautiful anywhere.
