is the bottom slanted towards the drain

It's rather flat. The water does not build up in the sink when running unless the stopper is in. FYI I love this sink and have bought it on 2 occasions. Much more useful than a double sink.

Not sure I understand the question.... obviously there is enough grade that water doesn't pool up but it isn't dramatic. I guess it's about as unslanted as a sink bottom gets. I think we've had ours for about 5 months and so far very happy with it. Hope that helps.

Typical sink design. Center drain. Franke is an outstanding product great quality

the entire bottom is not slanted toward the drain, only a half inch or so around the drain is rounded/slanted to allow drainage. With this large a sink, it would be better to have a slight slant, that's true. BTW, Franke sinks are made of junk stainless steel, probably from China. I will never buy another.

Yes there is a bottom drain plug, in one of the sides. Low enough. I bought this coolers for marine application and they did not hold well. The hinges got rusted immediately and broke too soon. Maybe good for some dryer place.

I've never tried it, but in my use, it does seem to need to slope toward the drain. It is a neat product though.

Yes, it can be installed either direction. Just have to move the drain fitting to whichever side is down.

the bottom of the spigot is parallel to ther floor. the top of the spigot has a slight downward angle.

I wish I could post a picture but to answer your question, yes, the water drains out the bottom. The foot is open. It's just like a foot that goes all the way around.

It mostly drains by itself. The base is tilted so that the water drains away from the highest point (silverware tray). However, at the base the opening is only in the middle and so a tiny bit of water can accumulate on either side of the drainage opening. I tip it a bit from left to right if I see water sitting there. To me it's not a big deal.

Hi, Janette. You are right, the front feet are longer. This gives me a perfectly flat surface, because the sink itself was installed with a slight tilt so that water goes down the drain. I was never even aware of the different length of the feet until you asked, but I see now that it is quite pronounced.

It's center. Their is a flexable hose under the unit to connect to the drain.

The drain in the sink bowl is under the faucet, not on the traditional side. Not good

It does not. I stapled thick plastic to the sides but allowed for drainage at the bottom. Nice piece. Good quality.

No. The sides rest directly on the dirt and there is no bottom, so no drainage system needed.

Yes the dish has a small plug in the bottom that can be removed to let the water drain.

Yes, either flush or under. Big sink, make sure you leave enough room for the garbage disposal when bracing bottom of sink. Great looking product, best price.

It is in the center, towards the rear. The drain is built in and does not have to be installed.

Sorry this took so long to answer you. I just saw this email today. (I'm behind) The drain is located towards the rear of the basin, centered left to right. I am sorry that I can't answer your question about the drain being built-in. The plumber installed this for us, so I don't know.

Yes. There is a slight gradient directing water to the drain. Good question I lived in an apartment with a sink that didn't have the gradient and it made clean up difficult. The gradient was one of my criteria in selecting the sink. I would like to bring your attention to the fact that the side walls of the sink slope in slightly so that the hole in your joinery face will need to taper slightly. I had a pre-cut joinery face, so I added a small scotia to cover the wedge.
