Poor quality, easily cracks and stains
Would not recommend this product at all. We’ve only had it for a few months installed and we already have a large crack inside a large crack outside and it is completely stained on the bottom. I’ve called customer service and they’ve offered to send a new sink. But it’s still going to cost thousands of dollars for a plumber, removing the bottom level of tile on the backsplash, removing the countertops, and putting everything back together again. All not covered under the warranty. Buyer beware.

    Dream Kitchen
    This was the centerpiece to our kitchen and this sink is just phenomenal. It’s beautiful, functional and durable. It’s almost about a year in and no issues keeping it clean, no scratches etc. I do use a silicone mat for protection (helps keep glass from breaking if dropped too hard)

      While I was ordering there was no choice of selecting the strainer color. It comes with Silver 1/2 inch thread while I needed 3/4 inch. so I have to go buy new from Home depot.

      Do NOT buy
      Have had installed for less than a year. Always use the metal protector in the bottom. Already has a massive crack. Need to buy a new sink, pull up countertop, and have new sink install. Going to cost thousands of dollars to replace.

        Scratches and chips easily
        Had it 4 years and started noticing the scratches and chips within the first year. Being a farm sink it’s complicated to change so I’m sharing our review to help others avoid the mistake we made because we’re stuck with this sink unless we want to spend a bunch of money modifying our cabinets, risking our countertops breaking or having to add/remove counter. We know people with Kohler farm sinks and they don’t have these issues, we’re also gentle in how we use it. Pictures added for validation

          NOT WORTH THE MONEY
          I thought this sink was going to be so good but I was so wrong. We just moved in to our house and I’ve been so careful with the sink cause it’s a brand new house and I don’t wanna break anything. And still even though I have been so careful it has a bunch of scratches and stains that doesn’t come out. I always do the dishes and never leave anything long in the sink so I was very surprised when there was stains that I can’t get out. Super disappointed. Wish I never would’ve bought it. Don’t buy!

            Beautiful but fissures in bottom
            This is a beautiful sink, however after about a year there are hairline fissures in the bottom. This is despite using the recommended stainless grate, as well as the Sinkilogy fire clay cleaning products.

              Beautiful sink terrible quality control
              I now have purchased 2 of these sinks and love the look hate the quality control The first sink had a slight bump in the top left edge which negated putting it as an under mount on a granite counter The second one had too deep of a hole for the standard drain basket. You must buy a deep drain basket for it to fit

                Beautiful Sink - Recommend Grids
                The sink is beautiful, well made and very heavy. I was worried having it ship to our home but it was very will packed and no issues. The installers did great job. As others mentioned there is a Sinkology stamp embossed into the side of the sink but we faced it on the side not to be seen when people look into our kitchen. I HIGHLY recommend the Sinkology Stainless Grids, Grates. They are expensive however the bottom of this sink angles down towards the drains. Glasses will tip over and break if you just set the glass on the bottom and probably my only complaint about this sink. The Sinkology Grids make the bottom level so your dishes or glasses don't tip over. They are of high quality. The Sink and Grids are both highly recommended .

                    Great sink for an okay price
                    This sink is a classic farmhouse sink. For some reason they’re so fricken expensive. I don’t get it. Apparently $420 is an okay deal. No chips. Heavy. No blemishes in the finish. It’s what we wanted. We weren’t sure if the 30” would be as big as we wanted and were concerned about the depth, but it’s pretty perfect. If your replacing a double sink, you’ll be blown away.

                        Definitely NOT chip-proof
                        After just a few weeks of limited use, the top outer edge of my gorgeous sink has chipped. I reached out to Sinkology and thanks to the warranty, they were totally willing to replace my sink. BUT they don't cover the cost of installation/removal. And when I checked with my contractor to see how much it would cost to swap in a replacement sink, they advised against it. They couldn't guarantee that they'd be able to remove the old and install the new without damaging the support cabinet or countertop. So yes, the sink is beautiful. I was thrilled with it initially, and the chip is small so I'll be fine. But buyer beware: A warranty is meaningless in certain situations.

                          Honestly, I consider this one of the worst purchases of our entire remodel. Within just weeks of it being installed and used, it had a grey discoloration in many spots. Guaranteed not to stain or discolor... yeah right. My toilets are easier to keep clean than this sink, it's so frustrating. The care instructions say not to use any abrasive cleaners. When I emailed the company, they said I should use baking soda. (Which is pretty abrasive?!). It helped a little, but the only thing that gets most of it off is a stainless steel scrubber. I have to scrub it at least once a week, and even then it's still greyish. Definitely do not recommend.

                            Scratches
                            After careful research for an apron sink, I settled for the sinkology sink because of its guarantee to not chip or stain. After getting it installed for just two weeks I noticed stain/scratches on it. I tried to scrub it off but it wouldn’t come off. I’m really disappointed esp since I spent almost 500 for this sink. Currently reaching out to customer service and will update my review once I hear from them.

                              This sink is gorgeous. We’ve had it installed for a month and it’s been perfect. It’s very large, drains well and cleans up easily. We followed Sinkology’s instructions for installing and it wasn’t too difficult. It does take 2 people to set the sink as it is very heavy.

                                  Do not stand behind their product
                                  I purchased a home with the sinkology fireclay sink in my kitchen. I've lived in this home since it was brand new less than 2 years ago. I noticed a little crack and contacted customer service to inquire on how to fix it, but because they didn't give me a purchase receipt with the home they won't help me so I get to purchase a new sink because they have no recommendations on how to fix their product. I reassure that when I do purchase a new sink it will not have their name on it. It makes me wonder how companies that don't back their product stay in business..

                                      The sink comes with a lifetime guarantee of not chipping or cracking. We've had the sink for under a year and it has already chipped. The farmhouse sink is a sink that is under mount and hard to just "replace". The company does not offer a refund, per home depot customer service representative.

                                        Just installed our sink into a 1970's house with standard cabinets. The sink barely fit above the cabinet doors below with about an inch clearance but turned out fine. We used the side with the frame look, which goes well with our shaker doors, and the framed side was much straighter than the flat side. Makes sense when you basically add a bar to the top. One thing I hadn't considered before installing the sink is how far forward the drain is compared to a standard sink. Not a big deal except that the garbage disposal is about one inch behind the plain of the doors. I'm using a standard 1/2hp disposal that isn't very big in diameter, but if you use a motor with a larger diameter it may not fit. Photo was taken with sink in rough position. Was raised to be flush with plywood.

                                          Disclosure: I received this sink for free to use in my kitchen remodel. This is my honest review: Our family is very pleased with this sink! It looks and feels like a well-made product and is a stunning compliment to our new concrete countertops and Zuri Pfister Faucet. The two deep bowls fit the needs of this family of six. Everyone who has visited us to check on the status of our remodel has fallen in love with our farmhouse sink. I think you will be absolutely pleased with this work of excellent craftsmanship.

Sinkology provides quality farmhouse sinks without breaking the bank. My husband and I overtook a kitchen renovation this fall and I knew when it was time to buy the sink I would go with Sinkology! Our cabinets are white, island is black, and our countertops are white so I knew I wanted to do a contrasting sink and I just LOVE matte black so this was a no brainer! The Bradstreet II Farmhouse Sink is amazing! We've been using it for about 3 weeks and it's my favorite element of the kitchen! It really ties together the entire look! If you are looking for a farmhouse sink, you will not be disappointed with Sinkology's Bradstreet II!
