When new looks fantastic. we were really looking forward to something different - other than a plain stainless. We were told by sales person stain, heat and chip resistant. We have been using for just 1 year. The sink is stained and has several small chips in it that stain even more than the rest of the sink. very disappointed. Suggest keeping with stainless.

I purchased a Blanco SILGRANIT sink in Anthracite. Blanco advertised on their website that Silgranit is heat-resistant up to 280 C, so you can put hot pots and pans straight into the sink without any qualms and it won't suffer any discolouration. My sink had a white mark from resting a fry pan on it, the fry pan was definitely not exceeding 280 C and so I lodged a complaint on Blanco’s website. Shriro, who distributes Blanco in Australia, organised for a plumbing company to replace the sink. The plumbing company cracked my benchtop, scratched t...

I have done several renovations and built one house. I have always had stainless steel sinks and even though going for top brands, I've never been happy with them after a few months. They do not keep their shine and also seem to scratch. This time I went for the Blanco Silgranite Rock Grey Double Sink. It is fabulous. It looks so modern and stylish and keeps very clean. Would never go back to stainless steel. I also bought the matching tap and that is great too.

This white sink looks beautiful in our kitchen and is very functional, with practical dimensions. I find it is very difficult to keep clean, however, and find myself scrubbing it every couple of days. I’m not a fussy housekeeper but am never quite happy with the result of my efforts.

After researching Blanco sink quality and design, we purchased a Silgrain double kitchen sink to be part of our kitchen renovation. Initially the sink was beautiful and seemed to be able to withstand the daily demands of a normal household kitchen. We read the care and warranty to ensure we treated the sink according to manufacturer requirements. After 1.5 years of use, the sink we noticed a chip in the bottom of the sink-after we examined the sink further, we discovered that it was riddled with over 35 pencil-point size indentations that were ...

Purchased this to replace a terrible looking stainless steel sink that was 3 months old. It's amazing, it does not scratch, does not dent and looks perfect every time I clean it.

After heaps of research chose a Blanco Silgranite Pura Dura 11 sink. In fact it is almost identical to the model above, which is what I had chosen, but instead got a Harvey Norman exclusive which included the anthracite tap as well. The sink looks fantastic on the white marble Benchtops. It is lovely to use as it has a silky finish. It has only been in for a month but I can't see any reason why it will show damage. Blanco say you can put hot stuff on it (and we have a couple of times without an issue) and you can cut on it. This I am not game t...

VERY POOR DESIGN drain tailpiece has hidden ledge just below strainer insert that extends out of sight underneath sink that holds some of everything that gets washed down drain, think about it, meat gravy, raw chicken juices,yogurt, cooked egg left over pieces..get the picture? ---then it starts to solidify and YOU CAN"T SEE WHERE THE SMELL IS COMING FROM...until VERY close exam shows SLIME protrusion into drain way!! Then there are the VERY PRICEY strainer plugs that leak after 7 months because the rubber is so brittle it cracks---probably can't take the hot water, and finally no matter how careful you are with detergents and protector applications it just grays out and never looks any good.

Purchased our double sink from Harvey Norman to replace an old SS sink. The new granite sink from Blanco has been really durable so far as we have thrown so many heavy pots on it and no scratch yet. Also, fro cleaning we have not used any specific product yet, simply washing it with some warm soapy water. Fantastic product indeed.

Looking amazing in the kitchen, design is perfect with the two levels for food prep. It's so hard to scratch and looks perfect with the basket. Looks even better with the matching mixer tap too. It's deep enough to fit all the pots and pans and doesn't sound like a tinny sink.

I fell in love with it the minute I saw it. Extra deep, scratch proof, features beautifully against white granite waterfall kitchen bench. Functionality, easily manages the deepest of pans. It is a talking point in a new modern black and white kitchen.

I love this large sink, it is so much easier to wash or cook now. But keeping white as white seems a bit of work - I choose white because I did not want to see water marks by hard water, and I thought white sink would keep me motivated to keep place clean. Well, I have to keep it clean... otherwise, white makes look place larger with my white bench top.

Recently purchased the Anthracite 500 undermount sink from Appliances Online. The sink is deep and fits all our pots, pans, baking trays etc. Doesn't scratch and makes virtually no noise. Stylish and functional at a great price.

I bought the sink and matching tap looks great in my kitchen it matches my black cook top in my light grey concrete look stone bench. Keeps clean easily shows no marks or scratches and have had heaps of compliments, would highly recommend this look as above mount is much easier to keep clean. great product.

We bought this sink because of its size and style, and we are happy with how it still looks. I am not a fussy washer - no wiping down of sinks for me, just a quick spray of water in the bowl. Despite this, our Rock Grey sink still looks great. Would be wonderful if there were more accessories for this sink though.

Bought NAYA8SK5 in Anthracite @ Harvey Norman. The Black looks great and I like the way it sits on top of the bench as it is easier to keep clean around the top than under mount styles.
Was worried about scratching but not a problem. Love the way the water seems to slide out. Easy to clean.
My favourite purchase for the kitchen renovation.

I love the sink as opposed to stainless IF I bought black. I was convinced that it would be tough and stain resistant. Its tough, and I love that about it, I love the look, but keeping it clean is a mission. A daily scrub with gumption, not just a wipe over, a scrub.
Blanco after service care is fabulous- my benchtop people lost some pieces and Blanco were fabulous and attentive.

Edited to add- I advised blanco I was unhappy with the white due to my inability to keep it clean. They have worked with me and we have tried multiple things to see it if helps and am extremely impressed with their service and attention. They have now offered to replace my white with a black. Very excited.

Absolutely very happy with the purchase of my Black Blanco Granite sink. Never ever thought I would succumb to the granite over stainless steel but am ecstatically happy with my decision for my kitchen renovation in all white. Have had it installed for over 6 months now and it is the perfect size and so easy to clean. No staining or water marking what so ever compared to my last Olivieri stainless steel sink. Terrific purchase no regrets.

We installed the black sink in an all white kitchen. It looks amazing. People constantly commented on how good it looked. We have had no issues with it so far (had it for only a month). size is great. The pipe system under the sink was well designed and saves a lot of space. We installed double pull out rubbish bins under the bigger sink, and there are still space above the rubbish bins. Overall, a very good quality sink, which was well worth the money.

I feel I have become a slave to this darn sink !!! I am forever wiping it dry otherwise it's a myriad of water marks - please think twice before purchasing - actually I have since heard of another black sink on the market that has a totally smooth surface that does not require constant wiping dry.
