Measuring 25" x 17" x 7-5/8", the sink boasts a single, spacious rectangular bowl that measures 16" in length and 13.5" in width, with a depth of 7.5" to accommodate various cleaning tasks. The 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel construction ensures lasting durability and resistance to the rigors of daily use, while the lustrous grain finish reflects light, providing a high-shine appearance that remains attractive over time. Engineered for drop-in installation, this sink serves as a striking focal point within any space.
