Does this sink cover the entire counter depth- ie can it fit between two granite pieces without having a cutout for the sink?

No it does not. There is 2 inches of counter top left behind the back lip of the sink.

That was plan but we did tile so the point was moot. There is enough of a lip but u need support for the sink all around.that was the issue

No it does not. When I purchased I initially thought it would, however you end up with a gap between the back of the sink and the wall. You need about 4-6 inches of countertop material in back of the sink.

We have a Silestone counter, which I believe is similar in thickness to a granite counter. We installed this unit with no problem.

Unfortunately I don't think you'll be able to put it in existing counter top unless the counter can be removed/cut. It's an under mount sink. I put it in when I had granite installed in my kitchen and they had to cut the granite to fit the sink and focet holes. It's an amazing sink I absolutely love it! Hope you can work it out!

Not at all! If you're using a single hole application, the stone fabricator can predrill his hole, then center middle hole on sink during install. Fantastic sink, by the way!

From the edge of the marble counter top to the middle of the sink is 32" and it is probably 30" from the edge of the cabinet to the middle of the sink. There were two back cut outs for plumbing, maybe 40" high by 22" wide. We had to expand the existing cut outs as they didn't fit our plumbing. The height of the cabinet with the feet also makes it more likely you'll need to made adjustments to the existing cut. There was no drawing included in our order.

Backsplash comes with it, but does not need to be added (its a separate piece.) I don't know the exact size of the sinks, but they are on the smaller size.

As you can see, the shape is not usual. We had our counter top cut specially to fit this sink. You could measure your existing one and compare with the dimensions of this one.

No - you can use granite. I'm sure every sink is different in its pattern, but we have a granite counter top and it looks fantastic. We actually turned our sink so it looks like a diamond shape rather than a square and installed the faucent on the upper right side, which also gives it a unique look. We get lots of compliments.

They sent me another sink and this one was fine. I saw similar sinks for sale (not by Nantucket, but same style undermount) when I chose my granite, and those were not completely on center either. It's the kind of detail that really bothers me, but most people wouldn't notice that something is off by 1/2 inch or so. Sink is nice otherwise. Happy with the replacement sink they sent me for no additional fee.

You will have to remove the false drawer front, most likely. The apron hangs down 8 1/4" from the top of the sink if that helps. You might have a gap at the bottom of the sink after you install it, but you can cut down the false drawer front to make a filler (if you're handy, that's what we did). There is no gap to slide the rail between the apron and the bowl, unfortunately. The stainless wraps around on the sides because it sticks out 1 1/2" from the cabinet. The sink is really sleek and contemporary, I must say. If I can figure out how, I'll upload a photo.

The Belle Foret porcelain sink (beautiful, and durable) has a smooth edge and top (think of it as being like a box with no lid or other detail on the upper edge). It would be possible to make that smooth edge even with the counter top, then seal the small space between counter top and sink edge with silicone or grout. It has no lip as would be true with a drop in sink. We chose to install below the counter top and like the look very much. To my taste it would look unusual to have the sink and the counter top at the same level with a small space containing sealant or grout.

No holes for the faucet because it is an under the counter install and the holes are drilled into the granite counter top. I am very happy with the sink and it looks nice with my new counter top. The installer thought it was great for the price I paid

Yes. Ours fits just fine. Just cut the top of the cabinet to fit. You will not see that at all once the sink and countertops are in place. We just love this sink! I should note that we do have corian countertop and it's close to the wall, but we don't have a deep backsplash so it isn't a problem.

The sink size is good for a prep sink and the basket drain is great. The only problem I have is finding a bridge faucet to fit the holes already in the granite and one that will extend 8 " over the sink(halfway).

Hello, what ever the dimensions it shows is accurate. It comes with a cut out sample so that the person who is putting in the sink will have the sample to cut the counter top to fit the sink, it is a beautiful sink.

It depends...unfortunately the template which gives the exact opening comes w/the sink. Ours is a very tight fit; i.e., w/n 1/8" of neighboring drawer front (which we trimmed.) There are spec's available online I think on the Amazon site which give you the exact opening space as well ad depth (you have to consider the cabinet doors below. We had previously installed 12" ceramic tile countertops & had to trim it, especially at the back of the sink. Sorry that's not a lot of help but we took a chance & my husband is very handy. It looks amazing & I love it! (our cabinet was a little smaller than a standard 36" one so you may have no trouble at all. Good luck!

There is a 1 1/8" raised border which goes all the way around the sink, but there is a protrusion from the bottom of the border which leaves a lip of 3/8" to sit on the counter. The installation instructions show that the hole should be cut to leave 1/4" for the lip. The flat part at the top, which contains the holes for the faucet, is 4" measured from the basins to the top edge of the sink.
