it says built in. At 2.25"h - 0.75"h granite top - 0.437"above counter = 1.063" below countertop, but it instructs to leave 4" around for air. How??

I had it installed by the granite installers and they had to purchase a kit to install it. Not sure if that was because of the granite or lack of hardware. I had 3 cm granite installed. Ps I love the sink!

I'm sorry, I don't know because the people installing the granite did it. It turned out beautiful though!!!!

The shaft measures about 3.5 inches below our countertop, which is 1 inch thick granite. So total shaft length about 4.5 inches. Will be close, but should be okay.

The bottom is smooth but indented so that the center does not make contact with the countertop. The edges are the slightest bit rough, like raw ceramic. This should not be a problem on granite, but if you're concerned, a few stick-on felt pads should do the trick.

...Hard for me to say. Mine runs 32in across the front to the granite overhang. If you are having granite countertops, it might be ok.BTW- I LOVE this sink.

I can't answer this, because I am the female homeowner who ordered it, and the cabinet/countertop guy installed it! We actually chose formica countertops that looked so much like granite, because we had so many, we didn't want to spend the money for granite, so he just gut a hole in the countertop, dropped the sink in, and the brackets, I know are used to tighten and secure the sink. I've seen my husband install sinks before, so I know that much. This sink sits on top of the countertop - drop in; it's not an undermount. I love it, because of it's depth, and I like having just one big sink, instead of a divided, since I have a dishwasher. We have a disposal attached, as well. Wanted a farmhouse sink, but way too expensive! This is a fantastic buy for the money! Sorry; gave you more info than you asked for!

The edge of my countertop is not bull nosed, so I can't speak to that. Does it move, shift or slide? Yes, during kneading, rolling out pastries or dough, it does move because it isn't permanently secured. I still love it, and prefer working on it rather than on the granite. Hope that helps you.

The top of the basin is 3 1/4" above the counter top. In my application i used a 34" high vanity, topped with a 3/4" Marble counter top. We paired it with a KOHLER K-16231-4-CP Margaux faucet.

AFAIK granite runs 1/2 to 3/4 thick and nothing special is needed. Generally, if your granite is sitting on plywood, your contractor should have cut aSection of the wood away where the fixtures are to be installed so that the wood does not soak up water that may collect underneath. So, assuming your granite is normal thickness and installed correctly you shouldn't need anything special to install this fixture.

Sorry. I sent this back because it arrived broken. Ordered a granite one which is much heavier.

It depends on your current counters. Do they have rounded edges? If so, I would say that the instant granite will look obviously fake if you are within 3-5 feet due to not being able to wrap those rounded corners (like on an island) very smoothly. If you have square edges everywhere, I would go ahead and do it. It will give "curb appeal" to your kitchen initially and in the photos (and if they don't like it, it can be easily peeled off). If you have formica counters, I do think it looks better than that.

The granite top comes separately and will need to be attached. Hope this helps.

We under-mounted ours...I thought it could be done both ways, because when the granite people templated our counters they asked if I wanted it dropped in or under-mounted. Also, you wouldn't have to put white caulking around it if you dropped it in, they make a very nice CLEAR caulk that you'd never even notice. I have it around other sinks in my home.

I think so. My granite was about 1.5 inches and all seemed to work with extra space. The quality of this faucet is amazing. Truly I was blown away. Id give it a try and send it back if length isn't enough because the end product was so satisfying.

We have granite too and there is a soft base. It appears to be glued on but no issues with sliding it on counter tops. There are no sharp edges. The chrome around the base has a rounded edge. It's pretty heavy. I don't pick up by the top.

I have no idea, although I ordered the style with the granite insert I received one without it! Return process was so complicated....getting back in tiny boxes, carrying, etc. I decided to just keep it and got a little refund on order. Not what I ordered, but very nice.
