TORVA 14 x 18 Inch Undermount Kitchen Sink, Premium 304 Stainless Steel Bar Sink - 9 Inches Deep Basin Single Bowl Sink

[Update @ May 5th 2023 ]After I found the quality issue, I immediately contacted TORVA via email and phone message. Linda from TORVA support team contacted me by phone, and she immediately arranged new sink delivery after I explained what happened to the sink. Linda sincerely apologized for the delay caused by the quality issue. We both agree the issue can happen during manufacturing, QC or transportation, Linda also arranged full refund. Blow is quote from Linda's email"Please don’t worry. Again,I’m truly sorry for this happened. Our brand TORVA is committed to service first, consumers just buy the product to enjoy it,any and all services are left to us."New Sind arrived perfectly flat and square, no issue at all. See the newly updated photo.Linda' support and effort are beyond my expectation, and she deserves a big promotion!5 stars to TORVA.============Original Post @ April 20th 2023 ==========================================The sink is not flat, and it is twisted.As you can see from photos, there is about 3/16" gap all the way at one side. Not only it is not flat, it is not even square. The package was delivered in perfect condition without any damage, so QA must be the issue.Found other reviewer had similar issue, which can not be fixed using caulking. Bondo or JB welding might be able to fill the gap, but I expect the product to be flat and square out of box.Very disappointed.

I was overwhelmed with the quality of this sink for the price. I bought it to install under a diy concrete countertop installed over a cabinet fashioned from a vanity. It is to serve as a bar sink in a basement entertainment room. The first thing that amazed me was the packaging! Great detail is taken to protect the sink to including double boxing and placing it in it's own little cloth "stuff sack". Next were all the 'extras'. Most sinks come with the mounting hardware, but not with the strainer plumbing kit. Not only did it come with the undermount sink clips and strainer, but with a wire grate for the bottom of the sink as well as a plastic colander. I thought the plumbing kit would be cheap and I'd have to purchase a different one for quality, but that was not the case. The sink cutout template was accurate. High quality for a hundred less than others I’d found that didn’t include all the extras. Quick shipping too. The only think I had problems with was the undermount sink hardware. It comes with brass anchors which are to be placed in holes you drill. You are then to screw the wing bolts with stopper hexnuts down into the anchors. The instructions gave me a bit size to use for the anchors. The anchor holes ended up being a bit too large. I fixed this by placing some epoxy down into the hole and then putting the anchors with the bolts screwed into them (with some wd40 on them as well) and taped to hold until dry. Worked like a charm and I probably would have used some epoxy anyway. btw - JB Weld works on concrete and metal.

We have had this installed about a week so far it seems to be a great sink , heavy duty construction, the finish is great so far, time will tell how it holds up but it seems to be a great sink,they installed it when they did our granite it was easy to install , it’s a very big sink and is just great overall……EDIT… it is now 9-7-21 and the sink has started getting spots on it that we cannot hardly get off and by the time you do get the spots off the sink is scratched and the coating is coming off …. Very very disappointed now I have to get it replaced I guess unless someone can tell me how to fix it it’s almost like the coating on bottom has came off I don’t know but don’t waste your money on this edit again 5/30/23…. I contacted torva about the sink and they did send sone rubber feet for the bottom grid which they said was causing the rust spots , I originally wanted a replacement sink but after thinking about it I don’t want to replace it with one that might do the same thing so anyway I talked to sunshine there and she was very helpful and nice and like I said sent us the new rubber feet and a small refund to purchase sone special cleaning stuff they recommend , so in the end I’m not happy about the sink but I am pleased that they were very helpful and willing to make it right

Forgive my ugly blue primed backsplash area....but this sink is gorgeous. I'm actually very pleased it is not coal black as it would have clashed with my counter and true black faucet (not bronze).As far as scratches, I am being careful to not use steel wool to clean it and it still cleans up beautifully. No scratches and it's been in for over 6 months.The only negatives:It is under mount and has a huge grate on the bottom. I have 2 negatives and not sure it is "the sink's fault/design" or the people that installed it. The bottom could be an 8th of an inch pitched towards the drain. The sink is so level the water needs a little help being pushed towards the drain. (I believe that is an install problem) It is NOT that bad and am figuring it out. (This is my first time with a sink of this size.)Secondly, The grate is there for protection but to really clean the sink, it needs to be taken out each time. Not really a problem, just an extra step I had not anticipated. (And I am lazy.)Overall, love thus sink, it is a a dark gun metal and just beautiful.
