How is this sink secured to the counter top?

You can place it exactly where you want it then tilt it up, silicone along the bottom on all spots which sit on the countertop. Then place it down and silicone a bead all the way around the outter edge at the counter. There also may be some small holes on the bottom which you might be able to use anchor bolts/wingnuts thru the countertop.. Hope this helps a little!

The sink is heavy enough to be secure just sitting atop the sink. We opted not to caulk because we feel that ascetically it was more pleasing than caulking, and given its weight it didn't seem necessary. It looks great and we have no fear that it will fall off, slip, slide, or otherwise detach itself from the sink.

There is a special drain called a vessel drain that has threding on the outside with a bolt that tightens down from under the countertop this tension anchors the sink down pretty well. We have our sink on granite and it is very stable if you really tried to twist the sink out of square with the counter you could but it would take a lot of effort. My wife and I love the sink. Good luck

It is secured by the silicone you put underneath the sink to seal the countertop and the sink. The drain also holds the sink while the silicone is drying. I have it since June and I really like it. Hope this helps! Mitch

We had this sink installed onto a polyurethane sealed butcher block. The sink sits on top of the countertop, with a hole drilled underneath for the drainpipe and water hoses. Our carpenter (we did not install this ourselves) used some type of clear caulk underneath the sink and around the bottom rim where it meets the countertop to hold it in place. The sink comes with instructions for drilling the holes.

When this sink was orginally installed by the plumber they left it sitting on the granite. It moved fairly easily. I called my plumber back because I was worried that the sink moving would damage the pipes. He applied clear silicone caulk to hold it in place. It does not move at all and you cannot see the caulk.

It stays put on the bottom of the sink. It is heavy enough to stay put & provide protection to delicate items when they are being washed (eg wine glasses).

Mine is under mounted with granite counter tops. It is fantastic !! I think you can have it either under the counter or over, pretty sure it can be done both ways. It's a big sink and I can't tell you how many people make comments on it . Just get it, you don't regret it. I tried to attach a photo but can't for some reason. I'll send you the photo if you send me your email.

I'm sorry I don't know what that means for sure! We have quartz counter tops which sit on top of the stainless steel sink and this sits on that just fine. We don't have a lot of room between our bar height counter and the faucets but this is narrow and doesn't take much room. We've only been in our house a month and even though the ends do move easily, I have not knocked mine off once.

The feet are covered by little rubber feet so your sink won't get scratched. You'll love it!

I am sorry but I don't remember. I mounted mine under the counter which is made of soap stone. When mounting beneath a stone counter the sink is actually "glued" into place with silicone caulk.

My bathroom counter is a nice slab of granite, a hole is carefully measured and cut out for the drain. The sink sits on a thick rubber washer (comes with package). My counter was custom made for my wheel chair to slide up close. It's a special sink and the faucet is even more special. I'm glad I bought it.

It's an undermount sink! You mount the faucet in the counter surface or on the wall above the sink!

It doe come with screws to secure to the wall but the sink is not predrilled for that.

Only surface mount hardware and instructions are included. It does NOT come with any hardware or instructions to mount recessed/embedded in a countertop. You should find a different sink for your application. If it helps, I ordered a desk height cabinet instead of a bath cabinet because it is about 6" lower and brought the sink down to a reasonable height.

I believe this is an undermount sink. We installed it under the granite countertop.

I had put this sink on Granite counter top. Once the holes are done . It is very easy to install.

There are screw holes if you want to secure it in place. I the black base up against the back of my cupboard and while mine is not attached....it has worked just fine in my cupboard to hold my cookie sheets, and baking pans. Not sure how it would work on a countertop since I'm not using it in that way.

According to the instructions, the sink is designed to be mounted directly to the wall without using a mounting bracket. It must be mounted to something sturdy - not just sheet rock. You bolt to the wall using LAG bolts, stainless steel washers and rubber washers. I hope that helps. JS

My sink is top mounted. Like you, I found it hard to tell from their description (sounded like it could be done either way...) My contractor was willing to install it undermounted - but I thought it might get damaged. The template that comes with it says it can be installed either way...? I think an undermount is available with a different model number. The faucet holes are (easily) drilled through the sink - not through the countertop. I have it installed in my laundry room and I do like the large size, particularly the depth - and the little "shelf" - so even as a top mount, I'm happy with my purchase. Hope that helps.

It is attached to the bottom of the cabinet. Very secure and does not wobble

I think that the sink's design is for mounting under a Corian, granite or other solid surface counter top. I did top mount mine but it was for an unique application--outdoor sink on a rolling, wooden stand. During the current CA drought, we want to wash fruit and veg and pots and pans outside and drain the water into the garden.
