Is the cut out for this sink a basically a rectangle, or the odd shape of the actual sink? (Don't want to have to cut the existing granite opening )

It is a rectangle. I was able to use the existing cutout for the sink this one replaced.

I am not familiar with either sinks you mentioned but ours has 2 radius on the corners, sharp radius for contemporary and larger radius for traditional. We installed the contemporary to the front which gives a great look, we love it.

I can only say it is square. Our old double sink had rounded corners ,so I had to square off corners. Easy to do with laminate, not so easy with granite

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.

It fits into a salon sink. Not into a normal sink. See the picture, it goes on the front curved part.

Yes it is...and you (as well as any potential buyer) should know that by looking at the brand name as that is all they offer. I had to look for the material listing of granite that you spoke of. I believe that it is a composite of granite so that may be why it is listed in that way. I have the sink and I absolutely love it.

I'm sorry - I haven't installed yet but will go through the box again - I believe there was a diagram, etc. and will let you know. The sink is beautiful by the way.

Unless you had a similar sink before, you'll likely need to have your counter top redesigned/recut/redone to fit this sink. As you can see in the picture, it is rounded on the back and to fully appreciate the design, wouldn't you want your countertop to echo that flow?

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!

The flange is above the sink. Our Blanco sink has a recessed area that the flange rests in so it's basically flush with the rest of the surface. Looks clean.

With this sink you have the option of both, rounded or squared depending on which side you want facing out. Love this sink!!!!

my cabinet was custom made. I bought the sink before the granite was cut, and the sink was installed to fit flush against the granite edge. The faucet holes were drilled into the granite.

The holes are not drilled for the faucet which gives you a bit of flexibility when choosing one. Very easy to drill through, very clean holes. There is a hole in the bottom for the drain. The material is not granite its a sort of resin/fiberglass mixture. It's very tough and I haven't been able to stain it yet. This is in my utility room and I do everything in it. The little ledge on the inside right is very handy to place already cleaned items in. Sink is very large and well worth the money. Hope this helps.

No, besides removing the false drawer cover you will also have to enlarge the opening. The sink comes with a template. It was pretty straight forward took me about an hour to completely install the sink. Most sinks are 33" across this one is 36". But it is awesome once done. I used painters blue tape and a jig saw to enlarge the opening.

No, it's hard plastic with little feet that rise it up off the sink surface. I wouldn't recommend cutting

The box has a cut out pattern of 19 1/4W x 19 7/8D. If ordering a counter top they will cut out for you, all they need is the model # of the sink

Brian, Mine was a new installation so the granite fabricator used a template when he cut the opening in the granite for the sink. I do not know the cutout measurement. However as I said earlier in my post. Be aware that my Kraus 33 inch 50/50 sink needs help with drainage... I have to be vigilant about water pooling in the corners. Hope's perfect sink helps, a squeegee works, and constant cleaning and wiping is necessary.
