If you're looking for a less expensive brand with high quality, it's hard to say. I ordered a sink from Havens Metal and am really happy with it, and it wasn't the most expensive i could have gotten, but neither was it the cheapest. If you want to be sure you won't need to replace the sink in the future, look for something made of non-recycled, 316 grade stainless steel that has a reputation for draining well. Some brands have issues with draining properly.

The sizes you specified seem small to me. A 36" sink is not too large these days. C-Tech has always been a favorite brand, but Kohler and Kraus make nice sinks too. Blanco stainless is very nice.

Joseph,

thank you!

i'm sink-space-limited so 22/23" is the widest i'll go with sinks, but thanks for the company recommendations

I took a chance on a sink from wayfair when we did our kitchen. Mine is 32" double bowl slightly rounded corners, 10" deep. I love it! I've had no problems with it and it was significantly less expensive than any others like it. It has scratches now but no worse than any other I've seen (besides brand new)
