Is this sink coated underneath with sound-deadening material? B.

There is a black coating underneath, which I believe is the sound-deadening material. I don't recall, but I do not notice the typical pinging sound of water hitting a standard stainless steel sink. I hope this helps!

just looked at the underside of the sink, it seems they use both, the entire sink is spray coated and there is padding on the sides and bottom. i agree with David N on the hgh quality, noise is not an issue

It is a cushioning material, kind of like a vinyl coating. It protects the sink well and hasnt come off in the 3 years i have had it.

We just had a new home built, and had the Pegasus put into a guest casita. We have not had any guests use the sink yet, but out of the box the sink appears to be matte. It is not a dull matte, but more a matte with a slight sheen to it. It is a very nice looking sink.

This is my 2 nd elkay sink, first one I had for 25 years & looked not much different than when I first put it in. My new one I expect will be similar but better because it's a one bowl sink, more useful for me than the previous one. I have a plastic mat on the sink's bottom or you can buy the bottom tray that Elkay sells as an accessory. I have had no problem with the "tinny" sound. I love the sink. It's one of my favorite parts of my new kitchen.

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.

Our water is so terrible that we had to install a water softener system because the water continually ruined our plumbing. I would say that it will spot however, because the finish is a matte finish, I would say that you probably wouldn't notice it.I love this sink because it's deep, wide and is nearly maintenance free.

I don't recall there being a coating on the sink. Regardless, I added my own with a can of automotive undercoating rubberized spray for about $3. The sink is very quiet now.

It appears to be hard plastic over steel. The sound is very minimal. I'm using it for a bathroom. The hardware is very good quality; I'm very happy with my purchase.

Yes, I am very pleased with the depth of this sink but the quality of the finish is poor. I will eventaully replace it.

Yes, it is coated. I have a Kohler double-black sink. I am thrilled with this sink protector and think you will be too.

It has dawned on me that maybe the reason you aren't getting good results...is old porcelain layered on metal. It may have worn thru to base ?Just a reminder that sinks are one of our least expensive items to replace in kitchen :) Un-less you desire one of those top of the line "farm sinks".Anyway, good luck...just thoughts I wanted to share.

It's painted wood. I didn't see an option to buy without the sink. It's a great piece. I love it

We purchased our Waste King L-8000 on Amazon. The noise is low....like a humming. Of course, you can tell it is on. I suggest contacting your contractor. It should not be "dramatically loud." If it continues; contact Waste King, they have great service and I believe no cost to you.

You could, but I think you might be disappointed by the small amount of noise control it may provide. I think the stuff manufacturers typically attach to stainless steel sinks is more 'rubbery', and dampens vibration better than this foam.

I don't know really. It was some sort of metal though. I thought it was nice but it wasn't the right color and the drain didn't fit my sink so I sent it back.
