This white cast iron sink is really beautiful and just what I expected. It arrived in perfect shape - it was double-boxed and packed well, and includes a template for the countertop cut-out, as well as 2 metal mounting brackets for attaching underneath the sides to the cabinet. However, since this is a very large and heavy undermount sink, we also plan on adding more cabinet-attached support underneath -- my research indicates that building an in-cabinet, under-sink cradle will provide security and weight support, plus protect the countertop from any potential issues that could happen if the sink was not supported underneath. The sink actually measures 42x19. The final part of the delivery was accomplished by a local trucking firm, who texted me a date and delivery time window in advance, as well as a 10- minute warning when they were actually on their way to my home. Although it was very icy and snowy at my house, the 2 delivery men carried the big heavy box up my driveway and set it in my garage where I wanted it placed. We are preparing for a full kitchen remodel and getting all supplies either arranged for, or actually on-site, in advance of starting this big project, so we have not installed this yet. This new undermount unit will be replacing a white drop-in Kohler 3-basin cast iron sink that is 25 years old. I ordered this new sink because cast iron is basically indestructable and it looks beautiful. This was on sale for a great price! We are excited to install this in our remodeled kitchen.
