Looks great! Sits a few inches above the counter making it appear more like a vessel sink but with the depth of an under mount which presents a modern sophisticated look. Just what I had in mind!

Bought this sink 10 months ago, there appears some cracks or flaws on the bottom of the sink after 6 months, contacted the manufacture, we were told it appears the sink may have stains on the surface instead of cracks, we followed suggestions to remove the stains, it is very hard to clear off if these are water stains, the sink is usable after clearing hard though. However, we bought the same size sink from Kingsman but only HALF of the price paid for Kraus one at the same time, there has been no stain or crack for Kingsman sink at all.

      Along with another review which wasn't made until after I purchased these sinks, this sink WILL NOT FIT in a standard 22" deep (front to back) counter with a faucet and backsplash behind it. The cabinet needs to be at least 2 more inches deep in order to accommodate the size of the sink from front to back. I wish I had known that before I bought 3 of these for a granite counter job I was doing, but luckily The Home Depot was very easy to work with to return them. In the end I had to purchase Kohler sinks that were in stock at the store since I didn't have time to procure another set from Kraus, even though I love their sinks.

        It was not clear from the instructions posted on-line that this sink needs an non-standard depth (e.g. 24") base to meet the installation recommendations. This sink has a 1 3/8" thickness; this is not a flange! Therefore, you need to install the faucets at least 2.5 inches away from the edge per the installation template. That may not work for many faucets and doesn't work for a standard depth bathroom vanity.

          Perfect size.. More room on vanity surface behind the faucets for easier cleaning. A little bit deeper than other sinks help saving water per each wash.

            The Elavo Semi-Recessed Sink from Kraus makes my bathroom look more elegant and stylish . This square ceramic sink comes with a limited lifetime warranty and a very useful cut-out template to make installing a breeze. My model did not come with a sink drain but it has a standard 1.75" drain opening so we bought a pop-up one that fits fine. It sits 6..6" over the counter height and the high arc faucet that we bought looks great with it. I had never had an above counter sink before so I did not know what to expect. I am amazed that family members haven't splashed water over the edge. I would highly recommend this sink to anyone who likes a contemporary look and is looking for an easy installation.

            Just had three of these installed. Great size. Great finish; not a blemish on all three I ordered. The drain holes are at the back, so visible, which I thought was different, but I don't care really. It's clean, modern, and great quality.

            The vessel sink looks nice. However, it does not sit evenly on the quartz top I got for it. Also, it's hard to find a one-hole faucet the correct height. I had only one hole drilled, I should have investigated faucets before the quartz installer left.

            Have not installed this product yet but it looks gorgeous in the box. Sink is quite large so we will have to see how it works out, but it appears well made and the color is not too white. It is a bit more shallow that I thought it would be but I love the shape of it. Will update when it is installed.

            Since I wanted to remodel the vanity in this bathroom I went to a cabinet shop with the product in hand to ask about cutting the top and installation of this sink. I struck a deal with them to build a vanity and mount the sink on it for me. The vanity is not complete at this time. Therefore, I can't comment very much on the completed project but the appearance and quality look great and I believe the end result will be worthwhile.

            The ELAVO Series Square Ceramic Bathroom Sink is just the right size for most bathrooms. It will fit most bathroom single or double vanity tops and allow for room on the top around the sin(s). The ELAVO Sink was packaged very well and arrived without damage. The included instructions and templates are easy to follow whether you are installing the sink on a new TOP or retrofitting the sink to an existing vanityTOP. Use the template to layout the cutout on the new TOP or confirm the new cutout on an existing TOP. Be sure to follow all instructions. [If necessary, you may want to provide the template to your supplier of a NEW TOP to insure a proper fit.] The ELAVO sink is quite beautiful and adds greatly to the room decor. It will compliment any Vanity Top selected. I will be using ELAVO model sink designs for any future bathroom remodels. PapaBear1

            This is a great looking well made porcelain sink.. Quality construction and heavy for its size, A standard installation with no problems. Caulked around the outside of the sink with a color matching silicone and installed all new fixtures in less than an hour. These top mounted vessel sinks have a nice finish and give the bathroom a really great look, and its a job most any DIYer could easily handle and still have time to watch the football game

            Love this sink. It really looks modern. I prefer square shapes rather than round so this fits the bill. Also I feel more at ease with my morning clumsiness since the sink doesn't have an accident prone high profile. It has a large flat surface on the underside to attach it to the vanity top securely. The cutout pattern that came with the sink was the most useful template I have ever seen. There is no way to cut too close to the wall like I have done before.

            I researched online many brands of sinks before buying (3). I am very happy with this sink. Nice white ceramic color. No flaws at all. Excellent value for the quality. I was going to buy some less expensive brands but reading the reviews of all the problems that came with a less expensive product, I'm glad I went with Kraus.

            Unfortunately it is to large for the opening on my vanity. I am searching for a sink that will fit into an opening of 16x14. I thought the designer said this sink would work. If you have any ideas, please let me know. I will be returning product when I can get to a store.

            Of the three sinks I ordered that were delivered to my home by UPS, only one arrived intact. I had the replacement sinks delivered to the store and picked them up without a problem. That said, I LOVE the sink! It looks sleek and modern and fits our style, easy to install and no problems.
