Ruvati 15 x 20 inch Drop-in Topmount Bar Prep Sink 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Single Bowl - RVH8110

We needed a drop-in sink for our new kitchen. I chose not to go with the plumbers choice, as it was a 20 gauge and not the size I wanted. This sink is beautiful! Large single bowl, and heavy duty 16 gauge, with a modern edge. Can a sink be sexy??? yes it can! I wanted a single bowl large enough to have a dish pan and my drying rack (I hate having the drying rack on the counter) and if i have large pans that need a soak i wanted the room. My plumber, and all the construction crew were very impressed. Wanted to know where did I find such a cool sink Ive received many compliments from friends and family. I would definitely recommend this sink.

I installed the 25 X 22 size in our laundry room as a replacement to a stained composite laundry tub. It arrived very well packaged and in good condition. Its quite heavy duty and looks good also (pics attached). I struggled with the clips a bit and had to bend them outward to get them to grip the underside of my counter. (Since I was replacing an existing sink, I didnt use the template and the existing hole may have been slightly too large.) Once installed, the sink looks great! I really like the draining rack that is included. It should help keep the bottom from becoming scratched. I installed it with the Kohler K-R562-SD-VS Pull-down Kitchen Sink Faucet (which is available here or at Costco). Its much easier if you install the faucet on the sink before you drop the sink in the counter.

This sink is a beauty. Its large which fits cookie sheets, pots and pans. You can easily put a washing bin on one side and still be able to rinse dishes. Similar to the other reviewers it can be a bear to clean. Simply using the sprayer to rinse food bits down doesnt always work and I noticed some build up in the corners. If youre a neat freak this may not be the sink for you. We really like it and just need to double check after rinsing dishes that all the debris is in the strainer.

While the sink is OK. I have to take issue with the marketing plan. Specifically the decision to put the cutout dimensions in a DWG file. I was unable to open this file even by using Autodesks on-line software. Why am I making an issue of this? Because I, like most of us, do not want to have to cut counter tops if it can be avoided. So one of my important criterion was a sink with a compatible cut out dimension. I have a more or less standard cutout. Without being able to open the DWG drawing I relied on the sink dimensions that are viewable and estimated the cutout required. DONT DO THAT. I believe the reason Ruvati makes it difficult to see the required cutout is because due to the design of the sink, the cut out is a lot larger that one would guess from looking at the published sink dimensions. Remember the cutout dimension drawing is simply a rectangle. So why does Ruvati make it so difficult to see it by using a non standard file format? And why doesnt Ruvati simply state the required cutout in the published detail? I believe its because many would realize that they will have to make a new cutout IF they have the room to do it. Ruvati will no doubt claim that they provided the info in the special (rectangle) DWG drawing. But IMO its a fig leaf. Dont buy unless you verify the cutout dimension first.

this sink is AMAZING!!! I replaced a same size double cast iron sink and had to cut the corners of my countertop as this sink is zero radius, but it installed with no problems and I LOVE IT! we were unable to secure the stays that keep the sink from being able to be pushed back out because there was only an inch of room or so and we couldnt squeeze our arms up to do that but I dont think it will be an issue. The weight will hold it down and I used silicone around the sink to prevent water from seeping under. I could practically bathe in here!! It is HUGE!! The included metal grate allows pots and pans and knives to not scratch the bottom of the sink and the sink is even big enough for me to have an over sink drain (shown in picture) and still be large enough to wash everything.

I bought this sink for my wife for Christmas 2017 as a replacement for the double bowl sink already in our laundry room. Finally, after about a year, she decided to call a plumber and get it installed. The plumber came and installed the new sink and without any solicitation he told my wife that we a had a really nice sink and he was impressed at how easy it was to install and how beautiful it looked. My wife is really pleased with it as it does look nice and is deeper than what she had before. Im glad to have purchased this one. My only quibble is that it seems the rinse grid was left out of the box, but since a year has gone by I cant complain.

When I received the sink it was heavier than I had expected. The packaging was very elegant for a sink. made me feel fancy (lol). The look and feel of this sink scream quality. My only problem is that I hadnt looked at the measurements of the outside dimensions close enough. I got it into the pre-cut hole in my counter top and sadly it didnt fit. it was a 33in sink but the rim wasnt big enough. This was very frustrating as i had just sent back two kohler sinks that had arrived with broken under mount tracks. But it was all my fault. Luckily they gave me a refund. And then I had to go buy a crappy american standard one from lowes which is inferior quality. Next sink I buy will definitely be a ruvati! they make a great quality product! I had done a ton of research before buying this one due to my bad experience with the kohler. This is definitely the best quality of this style of sink for your money.

Im totally impressed with this sink. For the money (or a lot more money, for that matter) it cant be beat. Very heavy gauge stainless steel, and the clamping system in a drop-in installation is great. A little difficult to install in a 36 base cabinet due to the minimal clearance with such a large sink, but thats just how it is. A 10mm socket on a long extension helps. Very well insulated and the basket and drain hardware is top-notch. My only warning to potential buyers would be this: I installed this sink in a laundry room with a very tall sprayer faucet. The force created when moving the sprayer around causes the faucet deck on the sink to flex, breaking the caulk bead I put along the back of the sink. I had to fabricate a wall bracket to hold the faucet steady. Im not sure theres anything that they could have done to the sink to alleviate this, but its something to be aware of.

Great sink! Very elegant looking and maximizes all available space. Original sink measured 33 x 22. Was a dual bowl. We wanted a single bowl to maximize space and convenience. Rack that comes with it prevents scratching and is very functional. Washing large bowls, pots and pans is very easy now. Pros: - Maximal space. Thin edges. - Looks great. - Very functional rack. Cons: - Hole covers are a bit flimsy and thin. There are 3 holes. We only got the single lever faucet with hose. 2 holes are unused and covers look a little cheap as the edges are a bit jagged. - Bottom of sink is a bit flat and doesnt drain items well. - Have a garbage disposal installed which makes it necessary for a different drain cover. Despite this, still give it 5 stars. The flatness of the sink also maximizes the space and needing a drain cover is a necessary evil due to the disposal used. Very happy with the purchase.

I absolutely LOVE my Ruvati sink!!! It was the first thing I ordered when we started our kitchen renovation. I relied heavily on the reviews before purchasing and I wasnt disappointed! It was tricky during installation because it was a tight fit due to the extra depth but it was well worth the effort! Love the rack, Love the depth, Love the strainer basket! Drains well! I recently had guests and they said they actually came to visit my sink!!! Have been using this sink for 6 months with no real problems. Lost one of the little rubber feet on the rack. Customer service was excellent and sent some out immediately at no cost. Did I mention that I absolutely LOVE this sink! It is my favorite part of my new kitchen. Thanks Ruvati!!!
