recommended stainless steel sinks

[Mart-1]

i'm ripping out an overmount Franke stainless steel sink as it is just useless - dents too easily, scratches badly (not the normal patina of scratches that develops over time), and even has a few brown rusty spots, all after 3 months use

i'm looking to use an undermount stainless steel sink this time

anyone know of a good solid undermount sink (one bowl with radiused corners) that looks ok after a few months?

thanks

Interesting - I have a Franke sink in black, and so whilst I don't have your problem, the black finish is so matt that it traps limescale and is a bugger to clean. Seems they need to smarten up their act!

Astracast are very good i sell ump-teen of there sinks week in week out and have never had an issue with any of there sinks, I would reccomend the Korona, but thats quite highly polished? Strange you have had an issue with a Frankee sink as i have never had an issue with one before, just out of interest what model is it?

Just as a little pointer to the poster above we have had a Black composite sink and used 'Bar keepers friend' to clean it up, that can be bought from John Lewis!

Currently I have to squirt Viakal over it.

franke and blanco are the market leaders in sinks...usually have a good reputation..
