Hi guys, thinking to purchase this below model.
https://www.twkitchenandbath.com/product/amks-654522/

Aimer brand, heard from shop they said its local brand, but its 304SUS.
I notice the thickness is 0.8, wont matter rite? While those premium 1 normally 1.2mm
The shop tell me common normal stainless steel he sell is around 200-300 those is 0.6 i not sure if there is other stainless steel grade he mean.
I notice alot brand claim its stainless steel but didnt mention its grade 304 or 316 etc.

I think SUS 304 0.8mm is quite good for budget around 3xx after discount.
I tried to google this brand but didnt get much info or review however i can find alot of people selling this with listing of 304 SUS. i finding 304SUS single bowl with 230 depth or more and budget below 600 if possible. any reputable value brand?

I think for RM500-600 there are better choices. 0.8mm material for a RM500 sink is not worth.
The problem with buying no name sink.. after a while even without using - it rust by itself just by looking at it.
This will be nice, 18/10 and 1.2mm thick - https://www.lazada.com.my/products/teka-arq...2875204518.html

This is 1.5mm 18/8 https://www.lazada.com.my/products/bareno-s...1889130726.html

This is 1.2mm 18/8 for RM499 https://www.lazada.com.my/products/mocha-mk...s972448479.html

18/8 =~ 304
18/10 =~ 316

nope, after discount i get it around 300+ range.
Since i get from shop i can go back to them anytime as i am their frequent customer. they do have those no brand sink with stainless steel but not 304, they told me wont rust, but acidic like lemon juice etc left overnight will cause stain there while 304 SUS unlikely will have that. Since around 3xx and i dont really care i proceeded just now haha..
They gave me another choice 6xx with same size 1.2mm 304 SUS, but i am not heavy user i will just proceed with 0.8mm after read some recommendation.

The only main diff for the thickness is sound proofing when washing, those water etc and if you put a heavy thing in the sink, you will unlikely bend the connection n cause leaking.
The recommended one is around 0.8 - 0.9 up to 1.2mm thickness from what i read on the sturdyness.
While sound proof they need 1.2mm recommended, i dont care about sound anyway haha..

Those which will rust definitely not stainless steel 304, as i work in F&B 304 is our min food grade material.
