Strive® 32" Undermount Kitchen Sink, Single Bowl Kitchen Sinks with Basin Rack, Stainless Steel, K-5285-NA

I love this sink! I've had it about 6 weeks now. I was nervous about having such a large single basin in my small kitchen, but, now that it is installed, I have no regrets. The size is a non-issue.Pros:-I can easily wash my large pots and pans.-The grate on the bottom allows food scraps to sit beneath the pot or pan that I am washing, so my pot or pan is not sitting in filth as I am washing it.-It is deep enough to hold quite a few dirty dishes, keeping them off my counter, until I am ready to deal with them (hand wash or load in dishwasher), which allows better utilization of kitchen workspace.-The grate saves the sink from scratches.-The rack holds my dish soap, sponge and dish rag nicely so that it isn't cluttering my counter and still leaves room to wash dishes. It fits just fine.-As with other undermounts, crumbs on the counter wipe straight into the sink, no edge to get dirty.Cons:-Food does get stuck on the bottom of the sink and requires me to remove the grate and some scrubbing/rinsing to get it down the drain. I just clean it every night, no big deal.I also purchased the cutting board that fits over the sink. I can chop all my fruits and veggies with no mess on my counters.

I just completed a full kitchen renovation. I bought this because the price was much lower then the same item in the showrooms I had visited. When the package arrived I was very nervous as it had obviously been opened and resealed with brown packing tape over the original clear packing tape. The box was slightly damaged and water stained (lite it had been sitting on a basemen floor someplace). I opened it up expecting the worst...but it was in perfect condition. It had the original safety wrapping on the sink. I love it and it really looks great!

Great, big sink. Love the size/depth. I can fit so much in this baby!!I like the rack that it comes with; fits across the entire bottom of the sink. I would definitely recommend using the rack because the stainless steel seems to scratch easily. Don't like that about this sink, that's why I'm giving it a 4 rating instead of 5.

Very well built! Included template and instructions make installation (in my case, building the cabinet from scratch) very easy. They assume you are doing a retro-fit into an existing cabinet and that makes it great for remodelers. Sound deadening material works well and keeps it from sounding like the sinks back in the day which were very noisy.This is a heavy gauge, beefy sink for those who have no use for that darn divider!

My wife and I recently renovated our home kitchen, and had this sink installed under a new granite surface. I am very pleased with the quality and functionality over the past 6 months of use. It is easy to keep clean. The accessory support slips on and off the center divider, is narrow enough to be helpful without obstructing the sink. Comes with a grate that slips into the larger sink section with ease, and allows rinsing and draining of vegetables without them touching the bottom of the sink.The larger sink section is big enough to lay a standard cookie sheet flat, which makes cleaning much easier.This sink exceeded our expectations!

For the name Kohler and the money, the quality of this sink is poor at best. It scratches easily, and the in-sink grate is rusting, leaving rust stains in the sink that need to be scrubbed to be removed. Kohler needs to do better.

This sink is beautiful and looks great in our renovated kitchen with our white countertops. It cleans up easily, and is everything we were looking for in a sink. Only downside is that it is showing some scratches and isn't in pristine condition any more with some usage. But we still love it.

I love the size of the sink, and purchased it because it was the largest single basin sink I could find that fit in a 36" base cabinet. A handy plus for installation was that about an 1/8" of the lip of the sink rests on the sides of the base cabinet. What I don't love is how easily it scratches and how bad the scratches look. This sink has a bright mirror finish that amplifies the scratches. I wouldn't have bought it had I actually seen it in a store. Our last sink was a Blanco Siligranite II, and its surface still looked like new several years later when we sold our home. And a warning if the "free" products included with the sink are important to you. If the countertop isn't precisely cut to the template provided by Kohler, you won't be able to use either the utility or drain rack. Our granite fabricator cut a smaller opening so that the granite overhangs the sink, and neither of the racks fits. I
