Design Brothers Farmhouse Sink Install
We live in a Farmhouse which is over 100 years old, and after living in the house for 15 years we decided it was time to do a 2nd kitchen renovation. We decided to bring some feature back into the design that we thought were in the house originally. A Farmhouse should have a Farmhouse sink. We chose white in keeping with the age of the house. We looked at many different types, and decided to go with the Josephine Fireclay sink. We chose this particular sink because of its great value for the money, its design, and overall ease of installation. It took us 2 hours from start to finish. You must have 2 people for this install. Its not light weight by any means, and very heavy. The sink is beautiful, and 9 inches deep. Our previous sink was 24 inches, and was stainless, and 5 inches deep. What a difference! We used multiple sources before we did the actual install; Sinkology website, BILT Intelligent Instructions app, and YouTube Installing a drop in farmhouse sink. We did not create a template as was suggested, too confusing. We measured the sink using the measurements from BILT app video and then cut out what we needed adding 8 inches to our original laminate countertop. We used a Reciprocating saw instead of a Jigsaw which was a lot quicker. We are not professionals by any means but are DIYers. If we could do it, so can you. We even cut the granite for the countertops, except for laminate for which the sunk is housed and sits on. We are very pleased with the results. There is nothing that we dislike about the sink. It far exceeds our expectations.

    Just what I was looking for!
    Bought this sink because I wasn’t ready to do a full kitchen renovation but still wanted to do a mini makeover and get a farmhouse sink. We love it! It was one of those purchases where now that I have it I can’t live without it and I wish I had done it sooner. It was very easy to put it. When I removed my old sink it fit the hole perfectly we just had to cut the front countertops. Our cabinets had a removable panel so we didn’t even have to cut those. I just still have to add a trim piece to fill a little gap. I did all the measuring and install myself. I only got my husband to cut the countertops and help lift the sink into place. I already had a faucet I liked so I didn’t buy the set but after buying the grate and drain thingy it would have cost the same to buy the set and then I could have sold the pieces I didn’t need. just a thought...

      We love the Josephine sink except for the left side of ours is bowed. Of course, didn't really notice until after attaching the faucet and drain. Kind of a big gap to caulk without some sort of backer.

        I am extremely pleased with the Sinkology Josephine Farmhouse Sink. The installation was easy, using the recommended videos. It's amazing how such a simple sink can transform our kitchen. We have had the sink for a couple of months now, clean up is easy and it has been put to the test with a large family.

        Excellent Quality
        I bought a brand new house in August. The builder cut corners by installing a poor quality sink from China on a website called ‘Ray’s List’. It was a double farmhouse over mount apron sink. The sink lost its luster a few days later. I had to find a new sink. As it turns out there are very few over mount farmhouse apron sinks. Until i found Sinkology. The Josephine Quick fit drop in Farmhouse Fireclay 33.85 sink was the perfect fit. I got a single sink because I don’t like double sinks. This sink is wonderful! Very heavy solid sink with custom built grating. I wish they made the grating in black. However, it does the job. The sink is huge and deep. I totally recommend this sink to anybody who enjoys excellent quality without breaking the piggy bank.

          Farmer sink without removing countertops
          I am on cloud 9. Hired great plumbing. Professional who installed the sink, sinkology flange strainer, pretty faucet, it was drop in , so we had to cut a small amount of countertop, but overall it seemed easy to install. I def recommend this sink.

            Perfect retro farmhouse sink
            We’ve been searching for a while and glad to have found this. Install took a couple of hours. Make sure to measure twice before cutting old counter.

              Easy to Install
              We bought this sink for the value that it looked. We were in shock to see the detail of the sink and that it was perfect for what we were looking for. The best part is the easy install. I had to cut our countertops, which are wood about an extra inch or so from the last sink that we had, but other than that it was a breeze to install. Actually took only about 4 hours to do or so. Everything went right in once the whole was cut and it turned out perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend this sink if you are looking for a farmhouse style, but still a drop in type.

                I purchased this sink from Home Depot on line. It was shipped and arrived in perfect condition. I did not want to remodel my whole kitchen or wait to do over the whole kitchen to get my farm sink. This was the only drop in farmhouse sink I could find that would lay on top of my existing countertop. Very crisp and clean. Since this was much larger than my existing sink it was a simple installation. Most of the reviews I read or pictures were of granite countertops so I was worried how this would go. My countertop is over 25 years and they were slightly warped in the sink area so my husband had to level it which made it a bit more laborious. This had nothing to to with the sink itself. We both love it. It really is very beautiful and substantial and this sink is extremely heavy. I also purchased the Glacier Bay Brenner Commercial Style Single-Handle Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet in Oil Rubbed Bronze Finish, the Premier Copper Products 3.5 in. Kitchen, Prep and Bar Basket Strainer Drain, Oil Rubbed Bronze and SINKOLOGY SinkSense Alder 27.5 in. x 14 in. Bottom Grid for Kitchen Sinks in Stainless Steel. I purchased the grid which is pricey because the drain hole is not centered and it was very hard to find the right fit for this unique sink. I do wish they had options to put the faucet off to the side or centered and that the drain was centered. But not a game changer and overall I am in love with this beautiful sink.

                I finally have my dream sink!
                I have wanted an apron front sink for years, but didn't think it was possible with my granite counters. This drop in apron front was the perfect solution! We trimmed the granite to accommodate the opening for the sink and it turned out to be the best decision ever!

                  This sink looks amazing in our kitchen. We can't believe we waited so long to make this switch from our old standard stainless sink to this beauty! There is nothing we would change about this sink. It fit perfectly and was pretty easy to install (my husband installed it and has experience w/ construction, but that's not his profession). It took my husband about 6 hours +/- to install from start to finish. We used the instructions on the app. Beforehand, we purchased a new diamond blade (for masonry) for our circular saw, and the counter cut very easily. We used a jigsaw to cut the wood of the cabinet. Tip - measure very accurately, especially for the notches in the front, and have two people carry/lift it b/c it's very very heavy. This is an excellent sink for the price. We highly recommend. Before & After pics attached.

                    Beautiful sink and much easier to install than I expected. I would have given 5 stars but we had a slight nick in front edge right on the front apron portion:(. It did not show enough to deal with the hassle to send back however. Very well made and great color as described

                    This sink was well designed to replace old sink with minor alteration to lower cabinet and existing lower cabinet doors. Some farmhouse sink require extensive modification to lower cabinet but this sink did not. Excellent solution to having a farmhouse sink with minimal changes to existing sink area. The finish was excellent and thus far appears very durable. Excellent value for the money.

                    The product is well packaged. It was easy to put in but the sink is a bit warped in the back. It’s a great price but by no means is it perfect. No instructions or templates included but they have instructions on their site or the HD site.

                      We love this sink! The first thing people comment on is how big the sink is. We had initially ordered the wrong Size sink From somewhere else and Thankfully found this one in stock at Home Depot! The first one we picked up was broken. Returning it in the middle of a pandemic wasn’t the easiest thing to do, but we got it done and got another one and it fit perfectly and it’s beautiful in my new kitchen. This would also work if you are trying to retrofit into an older cabinet. It’s a great value as the others we looked at were double the price! It’s huge! There are three holes but we only used one for ours.

                          This sink is truly a drop in replacement that is perfect for remodeling any kitchen no matter what countertop you have. I am very pleased with how easy the installation was in my laminate countertop as I replaced my standard stainless steel sink. Remember to make sure your sink base (cabinet) is 36” wide for this to fit. My wife loves it!

                          Installed sink looks great. Installation was straight forward using the BILT App. I did have to cut the notches on the front of the counter a bit wider than the BILT App instructed so the sink would slide in far enough. The cabinet had to be modified in addition to the window sill. I added the bottom grate to protect the sink from heavy pots, definitely recommended.

                              3rd sink very disappointed
                              I purchased this sink at the beginning of January and have only had it installed 3 weeks until it decided to CRACK while just running water in it. It cracked completely through so water was coming through the bottom. Got the sink out and drove an hour to a store that had it in stock, get home to put the 2nd sink in and it doesn’t fit right on one side. After taking it out and putting the level on the back it is slanted! Again I will have to pack the sink up and drive another hour to get a 3rd sink! I’m a woman and this thing is HEAVY so this isn’t just a simple task. For $400 I should not have to be going through this mess. I’ve already had my brand new countertops cut to fit this sink so I have no choice but to continue to do this. Very upset!!!
