I'm getting new granite counters and they come with a free 16-gauge sink. I could also get an upgrade to 18-gauge for $150. Is it worth it? What's the difference?
In addition to going with the thicker gauge, I'd suggest going with one with deeper bowls. If the dealer doesn't have access to deeper bowls, see if you can get a credit and locate one yourself. We got ours after searching the internet.
The cheap stainless may be magnetic...real stainless is NOT..
