KRAUS Kore 30" Double Bowl Drop-In Workstation 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink with Accessories - KWT302-30

KRAUS Kore 30" Double Bowl Drop-In Workstation 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink with Accessories - KWT302-30

Cook, serve, and entertain in style with KRAUS Kore Workstation Sinks. Engineered with an integrated ledge to support custom sliding accessories, this sink creates a multifunctional workspace to streamline all your kitchen tasks from meal prep to cleanup. The kit includes a heavy-duty cutting board and roll-up dish rack that allow you to work right over the sink without losing space on the kitchen counter. Kore sinks are made with KRAUS TRU16, the thickest 16-gauge stainless steel for maximum durability. Ideal for retrofitting into an existing countertop cutout, the versatile dual-mount design installs as an undermount or drop-in with any type of kitchen counter material. The thick 4mm mounting deck sits flat against the countertop for a perfectly finished look, with two pre-drilled holes for installation of a kitchen faucet and soap dispenser. The double bowl sink with low divider is perfect for multi-tasking, with extra clearance for items like baking sheets and long-handled pans. Thick NoiseDefend sound dampening pads absorb noise and vibration for an ultra-quiet experience. Wear-resistant finish is easy to clean and not prone to corrosion, while rounded corners on the sink bottom reduce buildup over time. Channel grooves and a sloped bottom improve drainage, with rear center set drains that add storage space underneath the sink. The installation-ready sink comes with a protective stainless steel bottom grid and drain assembly with matching cover for a clean look

Note from DirectSinks about the KWT302-30 - A 30" Double Bowl is not common, but often looked for when renovating a kitchen. This sink can be mounted in a 33" cabinet. (We like this sink because most double bowl sinks are too big and need a 36" cabinet.) This model from Kraus can easily be the best option if you need a 30" 50/50 Top Mount Sink.  Bonus feature of this model is that the center divider is at a reduced height of 6" and a thinner profile An added perk that we like is that it is a workstation sink & 16 gauge.  Although we show this sink as a Top Mount sink, this sink can also be undermouted according to Kraus. Either way, this is a great Double Bowl Workstation Sink for an 33" Cabinet.
