Does this sink have a slight gradient on the bottom so water doesn't pool? Or is it flat? Thanks for your response in advance!

The drain is in the middle of the sink, so there is a slight gradation down, but not like a bathtub that will have everything drain. Water doesn't pool, but food particles do. I find that I have to regularly wipe the sink bottom to clear any bits of food that settle after rinsing dishes. I'm still happy with the sink as there is so much space ... but with more space, there is more wiping!

There must be a slight gradient, but it is not apparent. Water does not pool, it drains really well.

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. We just moved (the reason for the new sink) and have not had internet access until today. The sink does drain perfectly. It does not hold water in the bottom. Hope that helps

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.

Yes, it has a slight gradient. I've had it now for 1 1/2 years and I still love it!

Overall, I love the sink! It drains fine, but you do have to spray water in the corners to clean it well.

No it's rough around the edges. I wouldn't get this sink mine rusted after the first use so now I have to wipe it dry every time I use it.

Ours is the same and I can assume it has to do with a potential tilt in the bottom of the sink so it stays flat. Our sink is pretty flat all across and the protector sits at a slight angle but it does not interfere with anything that has to be done. It is a sink protector and it does a good job for that.

Yes, there are several small holes in the bottom to allow for drainage. It does sit flat. I use mine for a counter utensil holder. My guess is it would need to be on a drain mat or in a dish drainer for it to be raised and the water to flow through. Hope this helps. Mine has been great for my needs. Enjoy!

I am away from our house but I believe it is a little shallower. It is a great sink!

The bottom is flat so it can sit on a level surface. But, it is quite heavy glass and probably very slippery on the bottom when wet. I would be afraid of slipping off into the sink and cracking or slipping off the vanity. You would need to put some kind of grip on the bottom, I think.

no, just a bare sink..the quality is excellent .. as good as sink cost a lot more from name branches . after 12 months of usage. I am very happy with it.

Hi Linda, I believe the bottom was flat, but I wouldn't buy this item. The price seems tempting, but believe me it's junk. Don't waste your money. I would add that I dont believe I received the same item I ordered. Good luck with this.

That has nothing to do with the sink that has to do with your plumbing. Mine doesn't pool and empties readily.

Don't know for sure, but I have not had any issues, my sink is LEVEL...I love it. I also choose a wire rack to place in sink. You do have to clean wire rack often. But one should...

They are flat bottomed, but have a really tiny ridge running in the middle. I have not noticed any water deposits but I next time I run it through the dishwasher I can look for that specifically and I'll let you know.

Yes it is seamless. The lines you see are draining channels (not very noticeable) and they are actually an added design feature so that water goes into the drain instead of having the sink bottom be 100% flat (helps limit water stains).

I don't recall. We anticipated a issue since we changed increased the sink depth which changes where the drain goes. It is a excellent piece.

No unfortunately not, the sink divider is only slightly lower. Still a great sink though. I'm so glad I went with this type of sink.

Slow sink, but not a ton. It's one of the firmer foams I've slept on/tried, but very happy with it have had it for 3-4 months now. Definitely not a quick sink-in.

I don't think it has much slope. It does take a but of work to get sll of the water out. But it is centered. Overall I love this sink. It works very well in our newly renovated kitchen.
