What does the black Elkay color look like? Does it have any flecks of other color?

It does have some extremely tiny white specks. I love the sink. I apply a thin coat of food grade mineral oil every couple of weeks to keep mineral deposits from forming. It really works. Apply it before you use it the first time and let it sit for a couple if hours. Then wipe down with soft cloth. This keeps the sink a much deeper shade of black.

Our Elkay is black but the flecks that make it sparkle look clear crystal like. It does not have any other color to it. We are very pleased with it, haven't had any problems with it and would purchase it again.

The black is not jet black, more of a very very dark gray in my opinion but dark enough to be considered black. There are no color flecks in the finish. It does have a slight metallic, very fine glitter like sparkle in the finish. It's not real obvious at first glance, sort of like a car paint. When the light hits it just right you can detect a slight sparkle. It's a really nice sink, deep and with a low divider between the two sinks, making it easy to clean really large pans. And it's really easy to keep clean.

no, it is flat black with enough very small gray flacks to give it a stone like look

Basically a dull black/dark grey. I wouldn't say it has specks of color in it. We have 2 and love them.

Yes, I was concerned about the same. It does not look like some cheesy oak piece. I would say it just a shade lighter than what it looks like on the picture, but still dark.

I would say black there is a slight wood grain look but definately not brown

It looks black but around the molding on each of the drawers it has a worn finish where the terra cotta color comes through. I have been very pleased with mine. It is the perfect size and the middle drawer is really nice for laying out your cosmetics. Would recommend. Thanks!

Mine is a year old but I want to say it totally black. It may be a couple shades of black. There may be a gray accent somewhere.

I haven't noticed any discoloration. However, it is more of a dark brown color than black. If you are looking for black, this isn't it.

No, mine isn't black, it's a beautiful bronze color. No problem with spots.

Mine was truly black. I have a black cast iron bed and it matches. After I put it together it looks like an expensive end table in a furniture store. It was fairly simple to put together too. Hope this helps.

I noticed the same thing before I bought it, but had rooms with each so it didn't matter to me. It is definitely black

I purchased a black cover. The finish is smooth but you should be able to put a sticker on it without trouble. The illuminated Apple icon shows though the cover as well.

I agree with other two responders. It's a plain gloss black. Ordinary luster.

It is most definitely black. Fair warning...the screws for the drawer actually cause cracks - I even had mine replaced and it still did it! hasn't proven to be a problem, but I could see it as potentially weakening and the cracks expanding over time or much use.Otherwise I am very happy with my purchase. The customer service is great and the piece is very functional and nice looking!
