BLANCO 440149 PRECIS SILGRANIT 32" Single Bowl Undermount Kitchen Sink, Anthracite

this is not like any sink I have ever had before. and I have had tons of sinks as I move often. so... the color was very nice, it was hard to tell by the photo just what type of brown this was. some of these have sparkly bits in , which I did not like, this one is just brown. when it arrived it had scratches, which was caused by the mounting hardware being just in a bag loose in the cavity of the sink. they should pack the sink so the screws and clips are boxed and attached to the sides. the scratches did scour off with a scrubbie pad. so far this sink is very useful in the large open size. I can put my largest pan right in there, fill it and let it soak good. I can also wash the shelves for my fridge in there. if I still had baby sized kids, or a pet, they would get a bath in it! the surface is not slick like you get with an enameled sink but its very non stick....everything just sort of flushes down. every couple of days I wipe down the sides as it takes that long to look like it needs it. I am happy that this is not noisy like my easy care high end stainless (that one cost $550) and much better than a cheap stainless. its quiet, in fact when you run the disposal it really muffles the sound underneath and no rattle in this sink. when you fill this sink with hot water to do some serious washing, the sink will hold the water hot much longer than my past sinks did. now I dont have my new counters in yet.... but when I get the new counters around it, I will post more information on it. UPDATE: we loved this so much we bought one for the basement! its really holding up, its not getting scratched or stained. I am not easy on my sinks. love this product! UPDATE: 3 yrs and the sink is perfect, still love it. easy to clean, looks great.

It’s a beautiful sink! I’ve had it for one year and it looks brand new. I was a little concerned after reading some of the reviews but I have had no issues. I use Bar Keepers Friend once in a while if it gets water spots and they come right out. I do like to dry it with a soft cloth at the end of the night. It’s a great size too!

Absolutely love this sink! Replaced a stainless steel sink, I hated it always watermarks and did not stay shiny. This Blanco sinks cleans up ad dries perfect looking all the time. The Anthracite really makes my quartz countertop stand out.

The sink came stained and the replacement came cracked. I would not recommend this product.

EDIT: We sold the house the initial sink was in and it still looked brand new 4.5 years later. We just moved into a new build and within one week of moving in, replaced the builders grade sink with another white Blanco sink. I’ll never have anything else. They really are THAT good. I have been using this sink since March 2017 and specifically waited all this time to write my review in order to accurately comment on how it holds up. I cannot speak highly enough of this sink and am so glad I decided to go with the white color despite reviews stating that it stains easily. I've honestly found the upkeep to be rather simple and haven't noticed that mine retains any stains whatsoever. I will say, however, that I am very diligent about keeping the sink clean and ensure that any food or items that could possibly leave a stain be cleaned up quickly. I'm not one to leave any dishes in my sink overnight and I wash out all dishes before sitting them in the sink. If any food gets into the sink that may stain (i.e.: red sauce, certain fruits, etc.), I make sure to wash it away with water before walking away. It takes 2 seconds to do this and is crucial, in my opinion, to avoiding stains. I make my baby's food and had steamed and pureed some blueberries the other day. I thought I had washed out the sink pretty well, but noticed later that evening there was a small spot that I missed. I thought for sure that it would stain, but it didn't. When I washed it out, there was a small stain that came right up with some sink cleaner and a brush (Don't use bleach!!). I do a good scrub from time to time and I can honestly say it looks as good as the day it was installed. The surface is not smooth and glossy like other sinks, which was what initially attracted me to this sink the most. It is matte and textured, which you would think would show more wear and tear, but I've found it to be the exact opposite. When remodeling our kitchen, we swapped out our glossy white sink for this one. The glossy sink showed 10x the stains and was VERY easily scuffed by pots and pans, which is something I've never noticed with this sink. Like I said, I can't say enough about how much I love this sink and am still happy with my purchase almost 1.5 years later. Definitely worth the money. If you're contemplating this sink, go for it. With simple upkeep, you wont be disappointed at all.

My kitchen is nearing completion so the sink has only been up and in use for about a week, but I am happy with my purchase. I am especially happy that I bought the rack that goes in as I had not calculated the depth being with undermount. The truffle is very dark, especially against my buttermilk quartz countertops, but coordinates with my granite (Brazilian Dream) and looks nice with our brushed nickel accessories. It drains really well. Also purchased the flange for the drain with basket and cover, which the plumber said were the nicest he had seen when he came to hookup. The stone installers secured the sink in place. My previous sink was comparable size, but since it was drop-in, it set up higher. Very pleased with this purcase which comes with the clips, so no need to purchase those separately. Extremely well packaged, double boxed and padded like crazy which is a good thing because I don't think the delivery companies pay much attention to the signage on the boxes (our box in the truck was on its edge--no wonder so many complain about cracked sinks! The driver seemed unhappy that I commented on how my sink was being handled. Be sure to have a big space to receive this box! You can remove the inner box to have your contractor measure. Also, be aware of how you want the sink to be mounted. You have three choices but if you only use the template a reveal will occur on the edges, which we did not want (we have it flush mounted). The Blanco website explains this really well.

I love it!...not installed yet, but is very nice, solid, study and very elegant...looking forward to putting it in to my new kitchen!!

Really happy with this sink! It’s exactly what I wanted. Bonus is that it came so much quicker than originally expected. Doesn’t come with plug though so you do need to get that separate but that’s not a big deal.

beautiful sink

Excellent sink, but as anything white needs to be cleaned all the time, which is not so easy.

I am bit disappointed with this sink, first I didn't notice that it doesn't come with the drainer, so you need to buy it aside, which I am trying to do, but can't find any color match to it. The brand name doesn't appear anywhere on the sink, so that keeps me wonder if it is a real Bianco product. Since when you see it at the stores you can see the brand name. Haven't install it yet, I will be back with final review.
