Ruvati Sinks: Workstation, Double Bowl, Bar and Fireclay
Ruvati has the widest range on this site, because its sheets are easy to read. Take the RVH8300 for a ledge, the RVM4350 for two bowls, the RVM4136 for a bar sink and the RVL2300WH for a white fireclay farmhouse.

In short
The Ruvati sinks we verified are the RVH8300 workstation, the RVM4350 double bowl, the RVM4136 bar sink, and the RVL2300WH fireclay farmhouse. The three steel ones are 16-gauge T-304 undermounts, and Ruvati says its stainless collection has no 18-gauge sinks. The fireclay one is 1 inch thick, made in Italy, and needs a 36-inch base.

Two equal bowls with a low divider, so long pans can still lie across.

In short
RVH8300. Bowl 10 inches deep, with colander, board and drying rack in the box. Sharp inside corners. More on workstation sinks. Skip it if you wouldn't use the ledge.
RVM4350. Two bowls, each 14-1/2 inches wide and 8-1/2 deep, with a low divider. More on double bowl sinks. Skip it if big pans are a daily thing.
RVM4136. Small enough for a 15-inch cabinet, and meant as a second sink. More on small sinks. Skip it if it would be your only sink.
RVL2300WH. One-inch-thick fireclay with a reversible front. Ruvati says a 33-inch cabinet leaves no room to adjust it, so plan on 36. More on fireclay farmhouse sinks. Skip it if your base is under 36 inches.
Worth knowing
All three steel sinks are undermounts, so they need a solid counter. Ruvati's gauge page argues both ways, and that its stainless collection has no 18-gauge sinks is part of why we read it carefully. See 16 or 18 gauge.
Comparing brands? See KRAUS for our single-bowl pick and Kohler for a dual-mount option. For two bowls, we'd go with the Ruvati RVM4350*.
Asked before buying
Are Ruvati sinks good?
We can only say what they publish. The sheets list 16-gauge T-304 steel, rubber padding against noise and condensation, cUPC on the RVH8300 and a limited lifetime warranty. We don't use buyer reviews, and we haven't used these sinks ourselves.
Does Ruvati include a disposal flange?
No, not on the RVH8300 and RVM4350 pages we read. Both have a 3-1/2-inch drain opening and tell you to use the flange that came with your disposal. On the RVL2300WH, the 1-inch-thick bottom may need an extended flange.
Where are Ruvati's fireclay sinks made?
Ruvati says the RVL2300WH is made in Italy. It also lists the sink as 1 inch thick and fired at 2900 degrees F. We read that on Ruvati's product page, and it applies to that model.
