Large single bowls remain very popular choices for the replacements I do regularly.

(Looks like a winner to me! I've changed my mind) I thought the Ruvati sinks on Overstock seemed a very good value-- but I decided on a combo of features/size that they didn't offer.

Edited: Based on the feedback given below -- that colander sounds like a non-starter and the other accessories not worth paying extra for (if the cost is indeed higher). One of the features I wanted was more rounded corners for easy cleaning.

We have the Ruvati sink with cutting board, colander and grid. We've had it installed for a year now. I do like it, but there are more things I don't like about it.

Pros: It's large and deep; I like the ledge for accessories and it's built well.

Cons: It's very flat on the bottom with tight corners, so it's hard to get in corners to clean and I'm forever chasing particles of food around the sink to rinse down the drain.

The grid is useless. It is not tight squares, but is large openings where silverware gets through anyway. You also have to take it out to clean the sink and crud gets stuck on it. I don't use it anymore.

The colander: it has single, larger holes down the middle of it and is completely open on each end so pasta, for instance, would slide right out. Larger veggies would be ok. We actually use it for our liquid soap dispenser and scrubby brush to keep them clean and out of the sink. I bought a colander similar to this to fit right over top of sink and it works great (mine is larger and isn't near that expensive. I bought it at Marshalls).

Cutting board: cheap and doesn't sit level with the top of the ledge, so I find it uncomfortable so I don't use it.

In the end, it is an "ok" sink. But, if I had known then what I know now about it, I would not have bought it.

Sorry, this is the only pic I have of it during the remodel.

It also splashes a lot with the flat bottom and my Delta Trinsic faucet.

In my search for a prep sink, I purchased a Highpoint sink with two ledges from Overstock. I wanted two ledges and it had good reviews. It is not yet installed. I purchased the bottom grid separately from O as well. The HP sink comes with a colander with silicone handles and a plastic cutting board. I didn't think that the colander with wooden handles on the Ruvati sink would hold up as well.

The HP sink is the ZR 3018L-PCK and the bottom grid is BG ZR3018L

This is the same sink as the Nantucket Pro Series ZR-PS-3018 and similar to the Houzer Novus NVS-5200 except that the Highpoint sink is 1/2 the price. You can save more if you have an O coupon. Houzer states that their sink is 18 gauge, whereas the HP and Nantucket sinks are 16 gauge. Because of the two ledges, the basin bottom on my sink is 14" from front to back. If that is an issue for you, Nantucket has a new larger version with a 16" basin bottom, the ZR-PS-3220. This may be a better option for you since you will be using it for prep and clean up.

I think that with any of these sinks you will be chasing stuff into the drain. I have a Kraus single bowl in my other kitchen and that has been my experience with that as well. To clean my large Kraus grid, I take out both racks in my DW and lean it in there on the side ledge, run it on "sanitize", and it comes out perfectly clean.

Any single bowl is great. There are now a lot of reasonably priced over the sink cutting boards, drainers and colanders so you don't need to buy a particular brand for those. I would not care for cleaning those tight corners. And if the water doesn't flow down the drain that's an additional drawback. The grid is just an additional piece of yuk to clean. I didn't end up buying one for my blanco super single (although I do most of my dishes in the DW). It just looks like one more thing to clean so I would make sure it and all sink accessories are DW safe.

The tight corners would make me look elsewhere.

@wilson853 How are you liking your Highpoint sink from Overstock? I'm trying to decide between that one or the Prolific and Ruvati. Thanks!

michelleinc, , Believe it or not, the demolition just commenced this week, so it is still in the box. As sometimes happens, our kitchen reno morphed into a much bigger project than we originally planned. I ordered a Prolific but returned it, as the one I received had sloppy welds, which was likely just a fluke. Many on here like their Prolifics. The second ledge on the Highpoint holds many of my baking dishes, so I anticipate that it will be very useful. Sorry I couldn't be more help to you.

Kraus single bowl sinks are popular here -- they have very slightly curved corners, which are apparently much easier to keep clean than the zero radius corners like the Ruvati has. Kraus sink

@wilson853 wow, demo just started? hopefully the installation after the demo won't take too long. Interested in seeing/hearing how your kitchen turns out! @allienc I saw the Kraus and liked the rounded corners too however there's no ledge. I was hoping to find something with a ledge for prepping.

I purchased a 30" Ruvati 16ga for this remodel. I LOVE it! I have 30" single bowls in all my remodeled houses. I have a Franke, Kraus, Vigo and Revere. I hate the Revere.

I might ad....I bargain shop and paid very little on Overstock.com for it, new in the box.

I see one negative to your proposed sink: The drain is in the center. I'd prefer a left or right drain so that the plumbing underneath the cabinet would take up less of my storage space; however, this is not a make-or-break item.

I wanted a corner drain, but ended up with a center rear drain -- It has worked out fine, I still have 2 pullouts under the sinks, on each side of the trap.

I've had a Ticor for over 8 years and still think it's great. No problems with draining and it takes large pots (and I still don't have dents!)

I should be more helpful
