Are there issues with pouring boiling water in this sink? Description says it's naturally heat resistant.

I pour boiling water in mine every morning after making tea and it doesn't seem to bother it at all.

I have not had any problems with boiling water or hot pans. So far I am very satisfied with the sink.

I have this sink in black and have no issues with pouring boiling water into it.I love this sink. Every once in awhile after cleaning it and letting it dry-I rub it down with olive oil on a paper towel.

No, I do it almost everyday and I've had my sink for 2 years now. The sink is made of stone particles which can handle almost 2000 Fahrenheit.

this is by far the BEST sink ever (black) - no problem with boiling water I've had stainless steel in every home from CA to IL, now in FL. I am a do it yourselfer but I don't worry about this sink at all - it's been over a year now do not hesitate to buy

Mine has. I usually use this colander for boiled potatoes and pasta. I set it in the sink and pour the boiling water into the colander. It doesn't seem to affect it at all.

It should be safe for boiling water. I pour boiling water into mine every day. According to the manufacturer's web site: "... Made in Taiwan with Tritan, a plastic specially-formulated to be safe in hot-temperature applications and is 100% BPA-free"

Not a problem. I reheat water in the teapot routinely. The interior of the kettle is also enameled and not just raw metal so rust isn't a problem....as long as the enamel is intact and not chipped off via denting or other damage. I don't know how long the enameled interior lasts but I'm a seasoned citizen and therefore consider it to have a lifetime guarantee.

I personally would not pour boiling water in this container. As I mentioned in my review from a few years ago, the one I purchased (as a replacement for one that I got in the 90's) broke the first time I poured very hot- about 200 degrees (but not boiling) into it. Manufacturer's changed the formula for making "tempered" glass and this new formula doesn't seem to be able to take the "thermal shock" that the old glass formula could take. (I made ice tea with almost boiling water in the old glass pitcher for over a decade until it broke when I dropped it on the floor). Several years ago Consumer Reports did an article about this topic, and their research indicated this was happening because of the change in the glass formula. If you research this topic online you will find information about this issue.

I have poured boiling water in for coffee, no problem. Washed up to as clear a finish as I began with! Hope this helps

I really like the sink saddle for protecting my porcelain sink. I have had no problems with heat, but I can't say that it would protect another material from melting. You don't say what material that you are having a problem with.

Not to disinfection by boiling. You can put the bowl turning in hot water, don't let chuck touched the hot water.As for the water, I do not know the exact temperature.What I used is relatively hot.

Got my Cuisinart kettle a couple of months ago and have used it almost daily on my electric stove. There hasn't been any problem. I would suggest never turning the heat to high, medium works quite well. Don't want to ruin the finish (inside or out) with high heat. I love using it!

It is stainless steel with a plastic coating. You can not put a hot pot on it or it will melt. However, I have had mine for 2 years. It is in perfect condition. Fits the sink great. Love it. Would buy again. Just wish it cost less :-)

I have one of these,i don't know how heat resistant it is. But I styled it using boiling water and had no issues

Are you asking material-wise is it safe? If so I don't know, but otherwise, I pour boiled water straight from the kettle and it's okay.

The water does not touch any plastic during heating. You can open the lid to pour with out touching plastic. The only contact would be condensation dripping back in. I don't know if that is a danger if it is not bpa free.

Yes it is. I always have my dishwahser on high temp though and some of the paint on the outside is rubbing off a bit but i'm sure thats my own fault for running my water so hot. But no chips or cracks . The cups seem to hande it well.

My experience has been that it is indeed heat resistant. I have placed pots from stove directly on the cutting board and all was good! I have 2 of these that are on my counter tops- one by my stove and one by the sink. They are great!!!

I have never directly used my teapot on the stove ,I do pour boiling water over the tea and have no problems at all.

This thing is made out of polycarbonate, a particularly tough kind of plastic. Boiling water is no problem. Although it has no insulation value so you will have to wear oven mitts or use a pot holder so you don't burn yourself. I particularly like the design of this. Very practical.
