Changed my sink to Ruvati in January 2022. By September 2024 the drain/basket developed hole from a bad weld job. Reaching out to Ruvati, the drain is considered an accessory and is not under the warranty. So keep that in mind when selecting a sink company More on reddit.com

I don’t know brands per se, but I would tell you to pay very close attention to the style of sink that you get. Something that is popular now like I think they are called apron farm sinks, where the sink pokes out from the countertop in the front and overhangs part of the cabinet, may be popular now but might not be all that popular in a few years. Also there are single bowls and multi bowl thanks, sometimes the separators for those multiple bowls go up to the height of the sink bowl, or sometimes they only go up partway. My wife for example liked the idea of having one of those single bowl type of sinks but when she thought long and hard about it she realized that she uses two separate bowls in the sink one for washing and one for rinsing, so while she like the idea she needed them to be separate. We compromised when she saw that there was a company that made a mid rise two bowl sink for the kitchen and that’s what we went with. Something else to consider is the shape. I would suggest that you try to pick with a somewhat typical sink shape, and not something too unique if it’s going to be under mounted, meaning that it’s underneath the countertop, because that would mean a very special sort of cut out, and trying to match that in the future would be a real challenge. Just my 2 cents. Hope it can help in your decision! More on reddit.com

Hello! Redoing our kitchen and searching for the "perfect" workstation sink. Wondering where you landed here? I also found myself entertaining the Elkay Crosstown, but wondering if it's truly worth the price premium. I am between Ruvati and Kraus currently, been reading reviews about the slop and lack of drainage. TIA for sharing! More on reddit.com

Could be the Warranty. A lot of Kohler stuff has a lifetime warranty. I'm the 4th or 5th owner of a house and had to replace my shower hot water mixer cartridge. Kohler replaced the 20 year old part that was quoted $500 from a plumbing service. More on reddit.com
