Better Houseware Medium Sink Protector Grid, Stainless Steel

I bought this sink protector primarily because of the slope to the bottom of my sink. Anything I set on the bottom tended to slide towards the center, then fall over when it got to the drain. It worked well to solve this issue.My main concern was that the gauge of the wire would be too small and it would flex when a heavier object was set on it. This was not a problem.The bottom of my sink, before the edge starts to curve upwards, is about 19" x 13". At the top of the curve it's about 21" x 15". So I ordered the Large size (18.125" x 12.5"). (BE SURE TO check the sizes listed on the item's page. I get the sense that some folks don't notice that this comes in multiple sizes before they ask questions or order.)The sink protector fits very well in my sink. It also does what I wanted; it levels the effective bottom of my sink so that anything I put there stays where I put it.There are gaps of about an inch at between the edge of the protector and the sink, but anything set there would be on the sharply curved part of the sink bottom anyways, so this is not a problem. Just measure your sink before you order, and choose the right size.The gauge of the wire makes it strong enough to hold any item of reasonable weight that I put on the protector.The only two reservations anyone should have are that 1) you will need to lift it out to wash the bottom of your sink, and 2) there is a hole in the center for the drain, so items cannot be place there. If you're unable to lift this out to clean your sink, then don't buy it. With respect to the gap in the center, I couldn't set many items directly above the drain anyhow, so this also was not a problem. Rather, it makes it easier to lift the drain filter

Quality stainless steel product that fits perfectly and works as expected.

The media could not be loaded. I just received these today and they seem really sturdy. I like the fact that they are raised up, which makes it easier to clean underneath. I will be throwing them in the dishwasher when they are ready to be washed. I like that it makes the bottom of the sink level so that anything you put in there will not fall over due to the slope of the sink. I think the price is reasonable as well, and even more so depending on how they hold up over time. I can’t speak to the durability as I just got them today, but so far I like them.

It's the right fit for my sink. Doesn't scratch and it is easy to clean. Sturdy and it looks good.

I had one of those plastic "pebble" mats in my sink since I installed the sink to protect the stainless steel finish from scratches. The problem with the pebble mats is that food and grime gets easily stuck in them which tends to stink up the kitchen sink if left unattended for a few days. This lead to diligent cleaning of the stupid mats.Why waste your time doing that? That's what I asked myself.This is a good alternative and it fits large sinks well. With only 4 small points of contact with the sink surface, water is free to flow around the sink and wash food and grime towards the drain. This keeps our sink cleaner and I don't have to spend copious amounts of time washing down the mat every few days.I've only had it for a few days now, but it seems to be holding up well. I've had a large ceramic pot from a crock pot cooker soaking on top of it for a three days now and it seems to be holding up to the weight. We'll see how long this thing lasts!

Love love love protect your kitchen sink. Porcelain.

Perfect fit for my sink. I don't have to be concerned about putting a hot pan on top of a coated sink protector

I have a porcelain kitchen sink and I’ve always used this drainer to protect from scratches or chips if pots drop ! It does the job!
