We are renovating our kitchen and are looking for an undermount sink around 30" for a granite countertop. After looking for not too long, I discovered that a sink like this could be very pricey.

I came across a website that is selling Legend sinks (among other brands), 18 guage stainless steel, that seems to be comparable in specs to Kohler, etc models, but approx 1/3 cheaper. Has anyone had any experience with this brand?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

I have not seen these sinks but if all the facts from their website are true, it sounds like a good sink. Stainless sinks should be at least 18% chromium and 8% nickel composition to avoid having rust stains. Legends are 18 and 10%. They also have an undercoating for condensation and soundproofing. I have to wonder why the price is so low. Good luck.
P.S. Brushed finish is easier to maintain.
