Can you remove the top and replace it with granite ?

Only if you have a piece cut to fit. I really like mine,but I am having trouble finding something to put on top to protect it. Someone suggested putting 20+20 floor tiles with felt pads . I don't know if that would work.

The whole top section is one piece. It is shipped so that all you have to do with that part is insert the drawer and add the hardware. But, I have contemplated putting a granite slab on the top of mine. The whole island is very heavy and if assembled properly it should hold the weight okay. The only issue would be securing the granite on top so that it became a part of the piece. A countertop installer would have that answer.

It might be big enough to do that, however, mine was installed on granite without the base plate. I would suggest you call Pfister and see if they can tell you the measurements.

I wouldn't think so. The base is hard smooth plastic, and it doesn't move unless you move it to another location. The top stainless part is what spins. I don't have granite, but a friend of mine who does have granite doesn't even use a cutting board to cut food on. She cuts right on her granite, and it doesn't show any marks from that. Hope this helps.

You would have to replace the top and add the sink...don't think it should be a problem. Ask your contractor before you buy it of its possible

We have granite too and there is a soft base. It appears to be glued on but no issues with sliding it on counter tops. There are no sharp edges. The chrome around the base has a rounded edge. It's pretty heavy. I don't pick up by the top.

It comes as one piece, not sure if you could replace the top or not. It is VERY heavy. It is also VERY beautiful.

Karen: I would think it would be OK to remove--not sure if it would dull/change the appearance of the granite after removal of the quick shine so obviously try a small test area first.

No. This is a large, heavy, assembled piece of furniture. I would not recommend removing the top.

Yes you can. I did and it was very easy. No soldering needed. Just unsrew top dome.

Yes that is the way I installed mine, since I have granite tops. Nice faucet by the way.

yes the granite looking top will scratch. It seems to be an epoxy type material which is tough but scratchable.

It may be possible; however, you may have to fabricate a new top or modify the existing top. The case interlocks together having each piece adds to the overall integrity of the unit.

Have not tried that, I only use on my granite countertops, I would contact the company that makes it and present the question to them.

yes, I think you could. The top is a really hard plastic and sides are treated wood. It is very light though, ours didn't make it a week with the wind and we never replaced it. Don't have any plans to replace it either. Cute but over priced for what you get.

Unfortunately I don't think you'll be able to put it in existing counter top unless the counter can be removed/cut. It's an under mount sink. I put it in when I had granite installed in my kitchen and they had to cut the granite to fit the sink and focet holes. It's an amazing sink I absolutely love it! Hope you can work it out!

As the interior is stainless steel, I am sure that you could. Just make sure that you disassemble the top to thoroughly clean!

10"X19"X3 3/4" Yes you can remove the top but I don't think I would spend the money for this product then remove the top.
