Ruvati 33-in Two-Tiered Undermount Workstation Kitchen Sink - RVH8222

Excellent sink! Durable and solid stainless steel 16 gauge deep sink that resists dings and dents! I bought a total of 4 (2 kitchen sinks and 2 laundry) for 2 homes and each sink is superior! The depth of all is awesome and with a quick paper towel wipe after a days use, it keeps the sink pretty much droplet free. When cleaning I only use a stainless steel cleaner with a soft sponge (no harsh bristles/pads) and clean in the direction of grain. My sinks all look brand new. The first kitchen sink, bought 2 yrs ago and used almost every day, looks as new as the three new ones bought more recently. They are all pitched slightly to the drainage hole, so water drains towards the hole. They are not priced cheap but worth every dollar. The many extra well-made amenities are a great perk and very useful too! I am super happy all the sinks came with the grate where there is a hole in the grate that coincides with the left, right or center hole in the sink for easy draining of food particles, and the grate sits slightly up on raised rubbery footings, on inside the bottom of the sink. It’s also very sturdy! Superb undermount sinks!

Feb 12, 2021 Update. I am still so in LOVE with this sink after a few years of use. I initially knocked off 1 star due to the error the manufacturer had with the template making others end up with a single tier rather than a double tier, however, it looks like another more recent reviewer noted the manufacturer has corrected that error since I had mine installed back in 2019. I am back on Amazon today to order another one of these sinks for our second kitchen in our home. I do see that the price has dropped by $100 so I'm extra thrilled. Even at the higher price it was worth every penny! The included racks/etc seem much better this time around as well. I am looking forward to the pasta bowl vs the extra square strainer thing. The quality is top notch but our extra basket/strainer thing stays packed away because I rarely use it. The only "negative" I have found with my current sink is the sharp 90 degree turns from the vertical to horizontal surface. It's a bit of a challenge to keep those sharp corners clean. However, as noted in my earlier review, I'm OCD so I use an old tooth brush to keep those corners clean. Before my first purchase I had been shopping around for months for just the right sink and kept running into the $2000 price ranges for the sinks I wanted. When I saw this sink on Amazon it was appealing at the much lower cost but I must admit I feared I would end up with lower quality for my desire to save some money. I was definitely wrong, as this sink is by far as good, if not better, than the $2000 sinks I almost purchased. This sink has definitely earned the additional 5th star rating it deserves, at least from my personal experience. Original review in 2019: We are in love with our new Ruvati sink. It is a beast. Although it is the same width as our prior 60/40 sink, it seems so much bigger without the center obstruction. The main reason I gave it 4 stars vs 5 is due to the incorrect template that is sent out with the sink. Thankfully I am persistent (OCD some say) about making sure everything is to the specification I want, I measured the sink vs the template upon arrival and realized if installed as the template stated/measured I too would only have one tier. I contacted the manufacturer about some negative reviews stating is is not a double tiered sink as advertised and the template also makes it a single tier. The manufacturer clarified if I left a 3/4 inch reveal on the front and back I would indeed have the double tier. I'm stumped as to why they make the template as a total 4 sided flush mount if that makes it a single tier, making one have to use some of the provided "attachments" across the top of their counter versus down inside on the above mentioned second tier. Why not make the template to measure out to be a double tiered sink if that is what they are advertising it as? It really makes no sense. After the conversation with the manufacturer I now know the negative reviews about it only being one tier are because those people assumed the template was correct. Very sad now that it's too late for them. When I took my sink information to my granite installer I made it crystal clear that they MUST add 3/4 inch reveal on top and bottom REGARDLESS what the manufacturer's template specified. I drew everything out on the template in bright red ink and used lots of highlighters to make absolutely certain the extra at top and bottom was not overlooked. Thankfully, since I'm a contractor by trade I have dealt with my granite installer for years so everything went smoothly and I have my two tiers! I hope that anyone else buying this sink in the future assuming all the instructions/template are designed for the two tiered sink that it is advertised to be, read my review and have the heads up before they have their new sink hole cut in their material of choice. UPDATE: Forgot to mention. If you are installing this sink and are working on the strainer that comes with it, the instructions state use foam washer then rubber washer then locknut. No where in the instructions does it state anything about the rubber washer being "different"....meaning it is ribbed on one side and smooth on the other side. My first attempt I did not pay attention and put the ribbed section facing down and the thing would never tighten fully and leaked every time. Since the instructions did not state it was important either direction I decided to take it all apart and reverse the direction of the rubber washer, making the ribbed section face up. This time it tightened perfectly and we have had no further leaks. Really wish this company would stipulate these little nuances in their instructions. Hopefully if you are reading this you will save yourself the headaches through trial and error we experienced. Again, the sink rocks and we love it...just wish the manufacturer would not leave so many choices unresolved for the end user.

Prior to this purchase, I had only vaguely heard of Ruvati. It was a risk, but I was willing to take it because of reviews and for what it appeared I would be getting for my money. It arrived well and thoughtfully packaged. It was also fairly substantial which was a good sign too. Installation was a breeze and there were no issues with the template provided to the countertop installers. The quality of the build and the included accessories are premium, and after almost a year it isn't even showing signs of daily abuse...like you'd expect from a high end sink (no scratches or staining with proper care). It's also very quiet. Running water full blast or using our 1hp garbage disposal are both dampened enough to done at 11pm without disturbing others in the house. It is the perfect size for our needs, the cutting boards still look new, and our overall efficiency has increased during meal prep. We have experienced no cons to date. This was a great purchase, from a company that obviously knows what it's doing. I will be recommending Ruvati to others.

The best kitchen sink for the gardener! We have so much depth and space for harvesting vegetables from the garden. Very well made and looks great as well. I would never go back to a regular kitchen sink again lol!

I like this sink. It's big and it is a nice work station.

I purchased this sink about 6 months ago. I looked at a lot of different brands. I ultimately chose this sink because of the 2 tier ledge. The install was easy, according to the countertop installers (we have granite). Had seen some reviews that said the template was not right, but the one sent with my sink was correct and everything worked great. The only complaint I have, and I do mean the ONLY complaint, is that slope of the sink could be just a little better. I find that I have to kind of “push” the water into the drain sometimes. Other than that, this really is a great sink. I love the versatility of it. The 2 tier ledge is worth the extra price. Especially with all the accessories that come with it. I highly recommend this sink to anyone that wants to simplify their food prep.

High quality metal with sound dampening insulation. You can barely hear the water hitting the sink when the faucet is open. Sink is deep enough to fit the largest of pots and I love the sink guard. You can dump out dirty water without it touching the dishes you've already cleaned. Best sink I've ever owned or used. The accessories just add to the enjoyment of use. The cutting boards extend your workspace and the drying rack is great for pots that won't fit in a common drain. The deep strainer is nice for catching all the food debris that comes off the dishes.

Gorgeous sink and accessories! I went from a granite composite sink to a stainless. So I was concerned about the noise level. Not an issue at all. The grate at the bottom keeps the noise level down as well as the insulated underside. I'm not sure I needed ALL of the accessories (you have to store the ones you don't use regularly). But I have used most of them at this point and find them to be useful and serve their purpose well. We did have some issues with the drain being on the very far side of the sink. It made it difficult to install the disposal as it was too wide to fit in the space. A few modifications fixed that, but we were lucky we were able to make that work. Overall, a great buy, and would highly recommend it.

The size is amazing, looks great and the accessories are high quality and makes food prep easy. We have limited counter space so I saw this and even though it is pricey I now see its true worth and it is definitely worth the price, especially if you have limited counter space.

I do love all the accessories the draining rack is what I use most. I am disappointed that the sink scratches very easily. You can’t clean it with even the softest SS cleaner. That said without a cleaner it’s always stained/spotted. I also wish it was a bit thicker/better quality SS. The accessories are very high quality and fit perfectly.

The cutting board is supposed to stay on the sink but after only 2 months of use it is already bending, even if I dry it up after each use I was expecting a wood board designed for a sink to be better I reached out to Ruvati support for warranty and they told me I'll have to pay 50 CAD shipping fee for a replacement of a broken part!!!!! Avoid this brand at all costs.
