I should jump in and defend Create Good Sinks a bit. Based on what I am seeing, most stainless steel sinks will show scratches and scuff marks on day one. I am assuming they use type 304 stainless steel and have what is called a #4 brushed finish, which is fairly shiny. That type of stainless steel and finish is used on most brands of sinks and will react similarly. The only way to avoid this issue is to have a matte finish on a harder type of stainless steel, 316L.

And now we have Sue's 5th thread complaining about CGS when in fact it's her unrealistic expectations for the performance of stainless steel sinks which is the problem. Wonder if she'll go for 6?
