What you see on the left is the typical inside corner on a fabricated stainless steel sink. The outside corners are typically welded and the interior corners are not - leaving a dark line that often looks like a crack or open seam. Trust me, it is not an open seam though. Our stainless sink corners were done in this method for some time with no complaints. Over the past years we have developed a have a proprietary method of MicroWelding the interior corners. The corner finishing is so tiny I had to import dental equipment from Japan to finish the Microwelded corners. I can assure you, you will never see welding like this anywhere!
Good enough is not in our vocabulary.The Galley sink and many others build their sinks with exterior welded corners like the first image. There is nothing wrong with that method, however our mission is to provide the very best quality and customer service possible. I fully understand the majority of families cannot budget for this type of investment. That being said, I will assist you in finding second best. Ask to see a close up of "their" interior corners!

Paragon dual tier, tri-level custom stainless sink.

New for 2020: Paragon™, the ultimate dual tier sink in the industry. This design offers the ability to hold half sheet pans on the top tier, as well as on the bottom in the same orientation. Other workstation sinks on the market get narrower below the step system. Our design has no loss of width below the ledge system. The dimensional width at the top of the bowl is 18", and is the same at the bottom. Our sinks also offer a rear corner drain that is tucked further back in the corner than all other workstation sinks. The advantages are numerous. You have more uninterrupted bowl space, more cabinetry storage with the guarantee that you sink will drain properly. All of these features are unique and proprietary to Rachiele Custom Sinks.

You will never have to deal with this mess again! We have the "scratch solution. Ask us about it."

This is our hand hammered brushed 316L Marine/Medical Grade stainless. This sink will last generations, not months!

304 stainless steel does have one weakness: it is susceptible to corrosion from chloride solutions, or from saline environments that occur on the coasts. Chloride ions can create localized areas of corrosion, called "pitting," which can spread beneath protective chromium barriers to compromise internal structures. Solutions with as little as 25 ppm of sodium chloride can begin to have a corrosive effect. (Source: http://www.reliance-foundry.com/blog/304-vs-316-stainless-steel#gref)
I have always been interested in improving my offerings to make sure they are the best in the world. Type 316L is quite a bit more expensive, however, I justify this by the realization that my sinks are not throw away sinks. Rachiele sinks are designed and built to last generations.
316L Marine Grade Benefits over typical 304 Stainless Steel:

Superior Corrosion Resistance

Type 316L contains Molybdenum and is Required in the Manufacturing of Certain Pharmaceuticals in Order to Avoid Excessive Metallic Contamination.

Resistant to Pitting (Type 304 can pit when exposed to a mixture of salt and vinegar)

Prevents Sitting Water and or Soap from Staining (This is a huge benefit)

Resistant to household bleach (You should never put pure household cleaning bleach in ANY type 304 sink! - just Google this, you will see this is a fact!)

Can be Used in an Outdoor Installation without worry about staining.

It Does not React to the Alkalies and Acids found in Milk, Cooked Foods, Vegetables, and Food Additives

Homes in Coastal Areas with Salt in the Air will Benefit from Type 316 Stainless - no fear of rusting or corroding.

NEW DESIGN FEATURE FOR 2018 NexGen is the next generation in workstation sinks. Up until now, workstation sinks had a "step" that held up the accessories. My new innovative design removes the step and the sink width remains the same at the bottom as the top. This innovation gives the user an extra inch of front to back space in the sink with this option. Best yet, it allows the grid to also fit on the bottom of the sink by putting one end in first while the other bypasses the ledge. This is a copyrighted design, exclusive to Rachiele™. My design gives 34 square inches of additional space inside a 36" sink. You just might fit your outdoor grill inside the sink! New grid and sponge caddy design shown!

If you know any welders, show them this photo! I think they will be impressed!

The photo to the left is intentially large when it is clicked on. I want you to see the quality of the "MicroWeld" interior corners. There is nothing more difficult than doing this on hammered, brushed stainless. If you know anyone that welds, show this photo to them and get their reaction! By the way, I took this photo before the sink was even cleaned for shipping!
We highly doubt there is any other company that can come close to this quality.

This is just one example of the difference between a Rachiele sink and most others. The retail price on this Franke PKX11028 28 3/4" sink is $2399. What other "Luxury Brands" pass off as first quality would be put in our scrap bin. Rachiele leads the industry in quality and innovation.
