Many reputable counter companies will only glue/epoxy/silicone the undermount sinks in, and occasionally add a cross strap in, but even then you're just relying on 2 or 4 screws into melamine pressboard.
All it takes a bead of the glue being off and you're hooped, this isn't a case of Truman building the house with orphan bones or chinese knockoffs, it was likely a slight quality issue with a trade, not some monsterous conspiracy to deceive you or its buyers

Well, it's a real shame you didn't post all that perceptive, easy to understand, common sense info 12 hours ago when it might have made a difference.
Posters here like piling on to Polak for any number of reasons, but maybe, just maybe, this isn't one of them?
Might just want to hold off on the 'told you so!' for a little longer yet. Just want to ask, how much longer after the initial install was this expected to last? 14 months? In your expert opinion, of course.
