2 Pack - 2.25" Top / 1.25" Basket, Rust Proof Stainless Steel Bathroom Sink, Lavatory, Slop and Utility Sink Hair Catcher Drain Strainer Hair

These perform as expected. They fit the drain perfectly. Must be cleaned occasionally to prevent clogging. They protect the drain from things falling in. A must have for exposed drains.

Our bath sink pop-up drain plug became dis-functional and had to be tossed. At this point, we had the choice of removing the entire drain fitting / pop-up assembly and replacing with a new assembly, or finding something to replace the pop-drain plug. The plastic mushroom works but looks kind of crappy. These little babies look like they belong in the sink (very handsome) they work well, and they are very easy to remove and clean (the flange edge is thin in order to seat properly, and could potentially cut someone trying to remove it from the edge. No problem - reach inside the basket with one finger and put a slight pressure on one side of the basket as you lift your finger. It comes right out.

This is a perfect fit for my bathroom sink. It drops right in and looks like it was always a part of the sink. And it comes out easily for cleaning. The trouble is that the holes are too small and the sink doesn't drain fast enough. To remedy this I tried drilling out half the holes in the bottom to 3/32". That improved the situation but it was still a little too slow draining. I went back and drill every hole in bottom and the first row of holes up the side to 3/32". Now it drains acceptably fast. You might gain a little drain speed by drilling out every single hole but I didn't find it necessary. I don't think this item would be useful for anyone as is. If you don't have the ability to drill it out then you shouldn't buy this. I'm pleased with the purchase and would buy it again with what I know now.

Had tried some screen-type sink drain strainers, didn't drain very well. This drain strainer is better made and has larger drain holes, works well. I found that it sits in the drain area more securely after I bought some large rubber washers at the hardware store, cut out a little of the center area to fit the strainer and the drain properly, then glued the modified washers to the bottom of the drain strainer. I think the product would be improved if the manufacturer included some rubber washers that fit on the underside of the strainer from the outset.

Product used for catching hair before it goes down the drain. The holes in the basket are way too small and will not allow the water in the sink to drain properly. The sink fills up with water and drains very slowly even with no hair in the sink. Larger holes in the basket would allow for the sink to drain faster and would still trap the hair.

Cleaning the bathroom sink drain is the most disgusting job in the house to me. Because of this, i have tried numerous sink hair stoppers on the market. I like this one the most. Its deep enough not to slow down water flow but shallow enough for easy cleaning- first one i have used that is not disgusting to clean. It fits well and is metal so it looks much nicer than a cheap plastic sink hair strainer. I highly recommend this product.

I Purchased this a year ago, still good!. This has helped me to prevent my kitchen sink get clog. At the beginning I was reluctant to buy it because some reviews said it got rusted fast. But it is easy to clean and remove the rust. Just apply baking soda with a little water and let it sit for about 15 seconds to 1 minute, then using a small brush or sponge clean it. All the rust will be removed.

I have had a few different sink strainers including the much vaunted as seen on TV "Sink Shroom." I thought the "Sink Shroom" would be wonderful, but long hair gets wrapped around it and gunk - icky, stinky sink gunk - gets trapped in the sink shroom. I went on the hunt again and found this inexpensive 2 pack stainless steel basket type sink strainer plus another chrome strainer (without the larger lip). Both are great! SO easy to remove and clean plus these keep hair out of the drain and keep me from accidentally losing rings down the sink. I will never go back to a silicone gasket strainer or a "Sink Shroom" again. I don't know if this company also makes basket style stainless steel strainers for kitchen sinks, but I got two of those by Farberware and put those in the double sinks in my kitchen to replace the other kind I had with the grimy silicone gasket. I didn't think anything more about it until my husband walked into the room at full steam. "Were you the one who put stainless steel strainers in the kitchen sinks?" Uh-oh. I didn't like the sound of that question. "Yes, I did." He walked up to me, wrapped his arms around me and kissed me like he was auditioning for the lead in a Cecil B. DeMille film. "Those are the best sink strainers I've ever seen." It sounds dramatic, but when you have a husband who likes to cook and spends a lot of time in the kitchen as a consequence, a good sink strainer is a big deal.
