Customer Reviews for Elkay Quartz Classic 33in. Undermount 1 Bowl Black Granite/Quartz Composite Sink Only and No Accessories

Beautiful sink installed 5 years ago when we redid countertops. A thin crack began on side wall, expanding with continued use and started leaking. Reached out to Elkay for warranty and was told it was from an impact (based on photos of the expanded crack) and thus wasn't covered, in addition to not having the 5-year old receipt. This was a normal use sink without a known impact-- the crack occurred with normal use. beautiful sink. worthless warranty. keep your receipt.

Worst sink I ever bought ,expensive and gets scratched with anything.

I love our new sink but if you get black be prepared to work harder to keep it water spot/calcifications free. The only reason I gave it 4 stars as opposed to 5 stars is that they should slope the sink a bit more so food particles and water run down the drain. I spend a lot of time scraping stuff from the left side of the sink and have to "help" it down the drain, even tiny particles.

We decided on this sink during a remodel.We also purchased the metal insert.This sink lacks proper pitch and you will spend time chasing food to get it into the disposal.The second complaint is the metal insert collects a great deal of scum in only a week and is time consuming to scrub it off to clean. Finally, the light gray sink has become discolored no around the drain no matter how much I attempt to clean it. Worst purchase ever!

Sure, it may not be "up to today's modern design" but this is a very good value for the average person and you get more than what you pay for with its polished edges and crisp lines. It looks and feels a bit deeper than the average 8" sink. Comes with all the hardware you need other than your choice of plumbers putty or silicone for the drain and perimeter sealing. Direct drop-in for all your standard size cabinets/countertops. The steel is thick enough to resist most dents, yet thin enough to drill through to add for a sprayer, filter, or soap dispenser as I have here. Instructions are very detailed and thorough. Right out of the box it looks stunning so if you took care of it, it may look top-notch for a while!

I purchased this sink in July and within a week it had cloudy stains and scratches all over it. Since the first scratch, I am VERY careful with the sink and even tell guests to be gentle or leave their plates on the counter. I clean it with barkeepers friend and I’ve even refinished it (using the directions on their website) but there is no way to keep this sink looking decent. I’ve given up. I reached out to the manufacturer and all they offered was a grid for the bottom of the sink (which does nothing for the damage that is already done.) DO NOT buy this sink, especially if you are bothered by stains and scratches. It doesn’t matter how careful you are, normal daily use (I am a single person with no kids) will look like you’ve been throwing shards of metal and glass in the basin.

We love the style of this sink. The lip design allows a nearly flush to the counter top surface fit. We wanted this type with one smaller and one larger bowl. However, we ran into a problem. I made an error. I did not look close enough and missed an important detail. The drain holes are positioned further back towards the wall than the old sink. This would not be a problem for many installations. The drain pipes would be replaced anyhow. This would be very good in many installations as the drain piping would be back further and that would open up more space towards the front of the sink base cabinet for the items you access daily. However, this kitchen sink cabinet has an on demand water heater located in the base cabinet along with a water filtration system. These two units are located against the back wall. The distance from the wall to the center of the old sink drain is about 14 inches. The old drains drop straight down and clear the heater and filter tank by about an inch. This sink has the drain hole centers at about 8-1/2" from the wall. The sink would fit the existing counter-top cutout but the drain pipes could not be fitted. The heater and filter system are in the way and cannot be moved without some major re-work. Great disappointment. The stainless steel is thicker than some sinks, thicker than our old sink. The bowls are deeper which was a good feature. We like the smaller/larger bowl design. This sink will probably end up in a planned remodel at a family members house.

This Elkay Parkway 20 gauge stainless steel 33x22 double bowl Drop in kitchen sink is a beautiful self rimming kitchen sink. This kitchen sink is heavy duty and very well made. The Stainless steel makes this kitchen sink very easy to take care. This kitchen sink will make any kitchen look modern. Comes with great installation instructions to make it easy to install.

My old sink was typical builder’s quality, shallow, double-bowl stainless steel. Although it had two equal-sized basins, neither was able to hold large pans, so it wasn’t very functional which made cleaning large and heavy items, such as a cast iron griddle or crock-pot, a difficult task. It also had a thick rim, so it sort of sat proud on top of the countertop, allowing for dirt and grime to collect around the lip. Out of the box, my first impression was that this is one nice looking and sink and the basins are stylish. The main basin measures 18-in. wide x 18.5-in. length, which is large enough to hold the largest fry pan I own and is 8-inches deep, so no more getting splashed. The smaller basin measures 11-in. wide x almost 18-in. length and is also 8--in. deep. The larger basin will accommodate dinner plates, small pots and pans while the smaller basin is perfect for washing fruits and vegetables. Each basin is polished and the unique shape of the basins give the sink a high-end appearance. Of note is that there is no sound- deadening spray coating on the sides and underside of the sink, only a single dampening pad affixed to the bottom of each basin. Also, while a packet of mounting brackets and screws are included, but there was no cardboard template for making the proper size cut-out nor installation instructions, both of which you would expect to be included, especially a template to take the guess work out of cutting the hole in the countertop. The sink has a thin lip and can be installed as a surface mount or under the counter top. Two holes are pre-cut into the back edge of the sink. One for a single-handle faucet and the other for a side sprayer or soap dispenser. The DAYTON name is stamped into the top left of the sink, but is set off from the edge enough to allow for a hole to be made to accommodate a soap dispenser or side sprayer. There is enough room to cut additional holes if needed. After the sink is mounted, you'll need to purchase a 3.5-in. basket strainer and drain assembly for each basin. This sink is constructed of T-304 (also known as 18/8) stainless steel and is heavy-weight, with finishes and features that you’d expect to find in sinks costing a bit more, but a template and installation instructions should have been included with the sink. Highly recommended.

We have a tile counter top and a regular 33" x 22" sink installed. I got this one to replace it, due to aging and stains. The stainless steel bowl is beautifully polished and looks grand. It also has a clever mounting system where you attach clips to a U-Channel along the edge to secure the sink. No more caulk beads needed to fasten the sink. This sounds good, and is very clever for new installs, but not for a replacement in a tile or quartz countertop. The hole we have will fit the sink without that U-channel, but with the U-Channel, the sink is too wide to fit in our hole. With our tile counter, it is not a simple cut with a jig saw. Installation will be delayed until I can get the countertop's hole enlarged. :o(

This kitchen sink is perfect for light-duty use in a normal home or business environment. It is made of stainless steel, so it is very easy to clean and it is durable. There are two holes on it so a single-hole faucet has to be used. The second hole can either be used for a separate sprayer, or an air gap for the dishwasher, or a soap bottle. It is very sturdy and easy to install. This can be mounted either under the counter or over it. The pads on the bottom of the sink reduces the sound level. Brackets are included for over the counter mounting. These are very easy to use and they hold the sink securely in place. The details are included in the installation guide. Overall quality is good. I am satisfied with this product.

Great stainless steel 33 in.³ double ball drop in sink. The sink comes with all the hardware needed to install. The sink also has three holes so may not accommodate any sort of soap dispenser you’re looking for unless you are comfortable with that soap dispenser being underneath or next to the sink itself. The sink does not come with the drain so you will need to buy that. Overall great item for the price. Great for a rental unit.

I find 60/40 double bowl sinks more convenient to use on a daily basis, although there's a trade off when you want to dedicate a bowl for a dish dry rack. This model is in fact even more versatile because the large bowl rakes deeply on one side allowing big pans, trays, and sheets to fit. Although it's marked and sold under the Dayton brand, It looked like an Elkay style to me in the pics. Sure enough, it was shipped by Elkay so I assume there's some affiliation. That's a plus because Elkay makes very good SS sinks. This is a medium grade model with well polished 18 gauge steel. The 8" bowl depth enhances the utility and appearance nicely. The top/undermount option is brilliant and I'm not sure why they all aren't convertible. Mine is a replacement in a location that had a cutout just a smidge too large, so I opted for top mount, which looks fine and is a easier to clean.

The drawback was that we had to purchase the drains, and faucet separately. However, this did give us the option of choosing our own accessories. We had a professional put the sink in and instillation went smoothly. He needed to cut the counter top about ¼ “wider to accommodate the sized of the new sink. Since, stainless steel tends to scratch, we purchased a sink bowl rack to prevent damage to the bottom when putting metal objects in the sink. The deep bowls make cleaning items easier and I prefer having two bowls rather than one. Overall, I do like this sink and was a nice upgrade from our old porcelain one.

1 week of use RUSTY spots. Leave a pot in the sink for the next day you will have a stain in your sink. Reusable straw also left a mark, travel coffee cup, sponge holder. You can't leave anything metal in it for overnight. Really bad quality.

The Elkay Parkway 33" Double Drop In Sink is an easy upgrade. The sink is made of 20 gauge steel and has a brushed finish. The offset drain holes, straight walls and rounded corners mean more space on the sink floor and easier cleaning. This sink can accept either a 3 hole faucet or a one hole faucet with cover plate. This is a large sink and a minimum 36" cabinet is required. This is a pretty nice sink for a very reasonable price.

Today my new Elkay Double Bowl Sink and new faucet was installed and I absolutely love it! The sinks are so much deeper than the previous sink! The stainless steel material looks absolutely amazing! The pipe connections for the sink needed to be adjusted due to the new sink depth. I do recommend that the faucet be connected to the sink before installation as it cuts down on the difficulty of installation. I love this sink and recommend it.

Pleasantly surprised with this SS Double Bowl sink. Drop in installation.....pretty easy. Offset drains. Being a 20 gauge weight, it isn't the heaviest nor sturdiest available but with normal everyday usage, it's a good choice for us budget conscience doitourselfers. We need to upgrade a sink//faucet set in rental unit and this works very well. Stylish, simple and clean. Very usable!

Elkay Parkway 20-Gauge Stainless Steel 33 in. Double Bowl Drop-In Kitchen Sink This sink looks great in my newly remodeled apartment kitchen. Attractive, reasonably priced, and is made in the USA of 20 gauges stainless steel, and it is just what I wanted for apartment redo. Heavy duty and deep tenant love it. I replaced a 6 inch stainless steel sink that was more than 30 years old. I wanted an 8 inch sink so I purchased this almost 9 inch deep. I do like the deep basins and is very easy to install.

Basic sink quality....... pretty thin....but nice sink....great if you want a dual double bowl that is reasonably deep. Came well packaged and in perfect condition. Drop in bowl...so you can replace this quicly and easily. 3 holes for the faucet installation, bummer...because I think 1 hold is better, but that is a personal choice. Good basic sink....

This stainless sink is designed to drop into the counter top and has three holes for the faucet and valves. Single hole version is also available. It is mounted using standard clips which re inserted into a U-channel around the perimeter of the sink. Sound proofing is minimal, just a few small pads on 6 of the 8 surfaces, other models feature continuous spray-on coating. The 20-gauge stainless is fairly thin and deforms easily. The bowls are 8 1/2" deep and feature a large radius between walls and bottom, the flat area inside each bowl is only 10"x12". The large radius limits the amount of space, but makes it easy to clean. It does not include an installation template. The same company offers a different line, which does not have the aforementioned limitations Still, this is an economic solution for your kitchen,

The Elkay Parkway 20-Gauge Stainless Steel Sink was the perfect choice to replace my old tired porcelain sink, I also chose an Elkay faucet to compliment the beautiful stainless steel sink. The sink has a beautiful stainless steel luster, it just looks great, and the 9 inch deep sinks are all I will ever need. The sinks have a insulation pad on several sides which help keep the noise down when you bang a pan on it. Installation was fairly easy, after the the old sink was out the new one went right in. I did replace a few items like the shut off valves and I had to get 2 new 31/2" sink drops that go in the sink drain holes. After setting the sink in the hole, the preinstalled rail around the under side of the sink made it easy to attach the clips to hold it in place. Then hooked the plumbing back up and presto a new beautiful sink in a couple of hours I could not be more pleased

THE ELKAY PARKWAY 20-GAUGE STAINLESS STEEL 33 IN. DOUBLE BOWL DROP-IN KITCHEN SINK, SILVER This is a nice sink that i am going to install in one of my apartments just waiting on the faucet that i ordered that should be coming in a few days, I really like Elkay sinks i have used them in the past and they are long lasting and easy to install, Elkay sinks have a great finish and they have sound pads on the bottom side.

I have to say this was less than I expected! It's stainless steel however it's not a heavy gauge ! I WAS going to use it to replace my porcelain double sink but i will not be using this one to do so. It's very light weight if that appeals to you that's a plus! However for me that's not I prefer a heavier gauge of steel !. The drains are bigger in circumference compared to an average kitchen sink and they're not centered! However that may be just what some people are looking for ? If it's a new plumbing install good but it won't work with my existing plumbing and I don't want the added expense! Perhaps this is the NEW thing for sinks light weight and LARGE drains that are not in center of each bowl? I can't give it a high rating as it is not as it's description depicted ! If you're doing a new kitchen or new plumbing this will work I don't recommend as a replacement sink unless you're doing new plumbing! NOTE: The first image is of my sink drain to show you how it compares in size to the stainless one

Great little sink!! Just what we wanted. Nice and thick too.

PLEASE STAY AWAY Don’t waits your money and ruin you kitchen, scratch very easy,

I installed this sink about four years ago and now totally regret it. The sales associate at the time was praising the practicality and value of these sinks. Although I was satisfied with the function for the most part, that all changed when it cracked. I was thawing out some frozen meat and apparently the temperature change caused it to crack. Unknowingly, I had filled the sink with water afterwards and walked away for a few hours. When I came back, there was water all over my hardwood floors in front of the sink (which has caused the wood to buckle). Looking under the sink, I saw that a 12” long crack had formed in the sink. To replace it, will entail removing the countertop, since it is an undermount sink. Elkay will replace the sink at no cost, but will not compensate for the damages incurred, which will probably cost a couple of thousand dollars. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THESE SINKS !!!

I love this sink. I kept going back and forth between two sinks and I couldnt risk it and I went with this one and I am glad I did. This is a durable heat resistant sink. It is well made, it was delivered with no issues and the quality is top notch. The sink is huge. I am able to wash and rinse with no problems. My pots and pans all fit with no issues. I love that there is no divider. The edges of the sinks are a little bit tilted in order to prevent the water from accumulating there. It is stain friendly. I dont have to wash it like I did with my previous white sink. I just rinse it and that is it. I love the statement it makes and I would definitely buy it again.
