Lordear 33'' x 21'' Gold Apron Front Kitchen Stainless Steel Farmhouse Sink

Update:I am very pleased with the customer service and handling of our issue. It is possible that the sink was damaged in shipping (although we did not notice anything prior to install) but we were immediately offered both a refund and replacement product. We are grateful for a company that stands behind their product!We ordered this sink Nov 10, 2018 and were very pleased with the quality and look upon arrival. We took it directly to the cabinet shop so that our cabinets could be custom built for proper fit. It totally completed our new kitchen. But......we are 8 weeks after having it professionally installed and the front ledge has a HOLE opening up. We have used nothing except approved cleaners and the major issue is that now my custom granite countertops are installed so even to replace the sink with a new one would mean a significant expense as the granite was fitted and the side undermounts are now set. I'm truly hoping a company representative will contact us as to how we proceed at this point. We are hopeful this is a manufacturing defect and an agreeable solution can be reached on how to handle this predicament.

Exactly what I was looking for and was great quality

Great product! Looks great, great value and scratch resistance!

Update: I highly recommend Lordear! They reached out to me to resolve the damaged sink issue. They definitely care deeply about their product and their customers. How wonderful it would be if more companies had such integrity!Next time we are in the market to buy a kitchen product, I would definitely buy from Lordear.Again, the biggest issue for us was that even though the sink is a beautiful high-quality farmhouse sink. it would be difficult to have it installed as a true drop-in sink due to the differing edging along the sides (flat along the back and partway up each side, but then solid to the bottom where the apron wraps around from the front. It COULD be done, but your installer would need good carpentry skills and your countertop guys would need to excel at precision and accuracy in making and finishing the cutout for the sink, especially if you--as we do--have stone counters. For this reason, the fact that the corners and one edge were slightly damaged and wouldn't sit flat along the countertop, our installer could not get it to work for us.I suspect the issue comes from shipping; even though it is well packed, the sink is VERY HEAVY (think 50-60 lbs inclusive of packages) and most of the time, UPS/USPS only has one person making deliveries. It's simply too unwieldy and heavy for one person to manage. Ours was left on our porch, so I didn't have a chance to inspect the package or even to talk to the delivery guy. I'm not sure how to resolve that with packaging, but I am confident Lordear will figure out a solution.Updating with more photos.I love the look of this sink. It is heavy, high-quality with good proportions and good sound insulation.I'm sad it looks like it won't work for us for two reasons.1) Ours is defective. It looks as if the front apron is separating from the rest of the sink. There are big ridges along the top at both front inner corners and a tiny split along the top edge where the front meets the bowl-- right in the center of that edge. (Update: This probably happened from a drop impact during shipping; their engineers are investigating to find a solution.)2) It is listed as Drop-In or Undermount, but our kitchen contractor said it is undermount so won't work anyway with our stone counters.I could cry because I have been waiting so long for our countertops and our kitchen to finally be completed, and my beautiful Lordear cannot be installed.

Absolutely love, love this sink. We have had it now for about a year as part of a complete gut job, kitchen remodel. It is HUGE & gorgeous. So easy to keep clean, especially with the amazing perfect fitting grate. The only thing we did not realize (buyer error in not measuring) was the front apron sticks out quite a bit, so just be sure to measure! We had plenty of room but it was a bit shocking when installed at how large it juts out. Now that we have been using it for about a year I love how much it sticks out as it adds to the overall size. The amount of space inside the sink is hard to describe! Love the color as well. Lastly the customer service is above & beyond. We had a question & the response was quick & great answer. We will be doing a small kitchen in our basement next year & hope to be able to use another product by this brand, not sure the kitchen size can support this large of a sink but if the design works we will use this exact product again.
