It is made of stainless steel AISI 304 (Cr/Ni 18/10). It is an extremely hygienic material and very easy to clean. The metal surface of the sink makes it difficult for bacteria to nest and survive. With minimal maintenance, the sink can remain like new over time. It is resistant to corrosion, a self-regenerating film protects the sink and allows its surface to repair itself immediately even when scratched.
Finish
The finish is brushed, meaning it looks "brushed", so limescale is not particularly visible.
Installation
The installation is inset, meaning it is recessed into the countertop and its rim protrudes. It is the easiest and most common installation for kitchen sinks. Essentially, the weight of the sink is supported by the countertop itself, with some support points at the bottom for stabilization. Sealing is achieved with insulating material, such as silicone, which is placed around the perimeter of the hole, under the rim.
Sink
It features a large basin, which facilitates the washing of large utensils, such as baking trays.
Basin dimensions: 71 x 40 x 20 cm
Cabinet
Beyond the length and width of the sink, you should also check the installation dimensions, or cabinet. The cabinet is the required space that must remain empty in the cupboard under the sink, so that during the installation of the sink it can be placed comfortably.

It looks very nice in our kitchen and it’s big enough for everything you use in a kitchen. Easy to clean also. But i am disappointed in the fact that there are stains/scratches in it that don’t go away anymore. I am very careful with everything in own and i clean the sink everyday so this is a big deal for me.
Very good build quality, 1.2mm metal thickness, unlike others that are at 0.8. Stainless steel that doesn't easily get dirty, water easily drains and it's also beautiful. It has enough depth, which is convenient. Quality-price ratio. It's worth it and more.
Very beautiful sink from Fortinox, guaranteed quality and construction. Quite convenient due to its size, easy to clean. I use it confidently for stains, it withstands harsh use with cleaners, cutlery without scratching, large depth in the basin at 20 centimeters. Something else that impressed me quite a bit is the brushed texture it has on the top part, which makes it very beautiful and essentially hides fingerprints.
I would like to record my own experience regarding the sink.
Initially, I was particularly pleased with the very large size provided by the single basin, specifically these dimensions, which allow me to wash very large utensils without encountering problems like I did with my old sink with two basins (which is hindered by the divider in the middle). With the heavy use I subject it to (daily cooking and washing of pans and pots with grease, etc.), I can clean it relatively easily even with the rough side of the sponge (green) without leaving marks on the surface of the sink or scratches. In terms of durability and resistance, I haven't encountered any issues (although I was a bit worried, but everything is fine in the end), after all, it is of Italian construction (not Chinese, Turkish, and the like). I shouldn't forget to mention the thickness of the stainless steel material, which is 1.2 millimeters, and I believe this is crucial for its great durability. Overall, I am completely satisfied with its usage so far, its large dimensions, and equally important, I must mention the value for money it offers. I highly recommend it.
