Is any special care required? I know granite itself requires care upon occasion.

I don't do anything special except wipe it down with Mineral Oil every few months just to make it look showroom new! I have had this sink for several months and still love it!!!

I have the light tan colored version of this sink and I love it. It does stain lightly at times, but all I do is gently scrub with dish soap and a lightly abrasive sponge and it comes right out. I wipe mine daily with soapy water and that's it. I've had it for a number of months and it looks great. It cleans easily, and it has so much room in it. It's surprisingly light so if you order it, don't think that the box is empty, like I did :-) I completely recommend this sink and have zero regrets over ordering it.

I've had this sink for 2-3 years now and it looks as good as the day it was installed. I occasionally use BarKeeper's Friend. Also I wipe it down with mineral oil. That's it! I don't do it often-maybe only once every several months. I do it when the sink starts to look a little dull. I believe the sink is a quartz composite. So far I've not been sorry. I like it so much better than the old stainless that we had.

So far simple soap and water works great. Have had it installed for about 6 months without any issues.

You cannot use an abrasive cleaner...just a mr clean eraser that cleans like a dream...

I'm not sure what you mean about coating coming off, I don't think that the unit has/had any coating. But about the stains, yes marble is a soft stone and even with sealer, if somebody puts/drops on the stone something like lime/lemon juice, or even coffee, it would leave a small stain on it. What we do is to put a cut board or other object that covers the stone to protect it.

mine was installed in a granite top that was fairly thick and very heavy. i never had a problem or concern.

I believe the polish has a wax in it. The polish definitely creates a nice shine. I use the cleaner then the polish. And sometimes use just the polish for touch ups but don't make that a habit. I'd guess that because it has wax, it could build up. I haven't experienced that though. My granite is uba tuba and has a 15 year seal on it so it doesn't require annual sealing. Hope this helps.I love both products & am no longer able to find in our local stores. For us, any other granite cleaners & polishes don't compare.

Mine also looks like the picture. As SunnieSue said, the granite is speckled.

If it does not specifically say it can be applied to granite, as noted below, contact the manufacturer.

The stones are packaged with an oil, I suppose to protect them, but once you receive them, I would suggest cleaning and disinfecting them thoroughly. Once this is done you may want to apply a thin coat of a light base oil to the stones before storing them.

Granite in mass quantities (like, mountains) can emit radon gas. Think about how many people have granite countertops in their kitchens and baths, etc. A small bowl - probably pretty low on the scale of things I'd worry about (my two bowls haven't killed me yet, and I use them frequently). But if it stresses you, get the ceramic ones.

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

I would say no, since the manufacturer does not specify it bonding to granite.

The label does not mention Granite...You could contact the company...1-800-321-6330

We have not sealed ours. Just use granite cleaner only and no harsh abrasives. Dish soap of course is fine. Make sure also not to rinse anything with chemicals in the sink such as paint brushes, bug spray etc... Anything made of stone or stone polymers are porous. Hope this helps.

We don't. First we clean and then we use this to polish. It is really amazing stuff which makes granite, stainless steel, stove top and wooden furniture sparkle. We highly recommend this product.

I doubt it since there is no finish on the granite...eventually it might lose small parts of the surface.

I don't know. I bought this one because it sounded like it would be thinner and go more fully into the microscopic holes in the granite. that was my thinking. maybe I should do both, one after the other. would be interested in what others think about this.

Yes, no problem ... I wash mine and store in my cupboard ..... this is granite ...
