It has made our kitchen sink more civilized.<\/p>\n<p>Sink strainers are a kinda gross subject, so I\u2019ll do my best not to disgust you here. Here\u2019s the traditional strainer I\u2019ve used for years. It\u2019s metal, and it has this protruding part that fits into the drain so you can either plug it up or dial in exactly how much water you want to pass around it. <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m sure there are merits to this design, but my wife and I argue over this thing all the time. When it\u2019s in, it\u2019s barely effective. But half the time it\u2019s not even in the sink because it was being cleaned, or was stopping up the drain.<\/p>\n<p>So this, is better. For one, the large outer lip covers up the whole drain, so nothing\u2019s slipping past it. <\/p>\n<p>Second, the silicone strainer can be pulled inside out, allowing you to easily dump stuff into a compost bin or garbage can. <\/p>\n<p>I do wish that the lip extended out just a little further, just so I couldn\u2019t see any of my drain peeking out \u2014 but that\u2019s just an aesthetic complaint, and maybe something unique to my sink.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, it feels like a luxurious upgrade for a sink I use everyday, and the ick factor of cleaning it out is gone for me now. The novelty will probably wear off, but I actually get a kick from ejecting things from this strainer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Best sink strainer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[2337],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32338"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32338"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32338\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32340,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32338\/revisions\/32340"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
