Default Need Kitchen Sink suggestions ?

We have a porcelein on cast iron Kohler. Finish is worn out after 9 years.
Will be going with Corian soon but otherwise I would go with a deep
stainless steel double sink drilled at the factory. Consumer Reports says
thickness doesn't matter but my parents have a cheap thin one and even
though the faucet is mounted tightly it flexes because of the thin stainless
steel rim.

We are replacing kitchen sink with new drop-in, plain white but can't
decide which type of material to purchase. We want a sink that is
easy to clean and will resist scratches and marks.

We find several types of materials, all of which brag about their
great finish but would like opinions from actual users.

We have a RO unit so must have at least 5 holes cut in the sink for
connecting faucets etc. Can all materials be drilled for these
connections?

We have been told that enamel on cast iron is tough but will show a
mark whenever a pan is placed in the sink??

Other materials show less marks but are subject to scratches??

All opinions and help appreciated.
