Unlucky Grandma, the best at drains and filters

I don't know how this OXO Sink Drain Plug got 4 1/2 stars from just over 5500 people! I'm not an inexperienced home technician. I am a 59 year old mother and grandmother who knows how to use a kitchen sink plug. I have a standard size sink with a standard size drain hole, I have no idea what the problem is. I inserted a plug (according to instructions) and filled the sink with warm water. It fully discharges in less than 90 seconds! I repeated this process four times, I tried to be honest. I'm…

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Good but not great

Excellent protection against water but if not cleaned often it becomes SAD

The suction is great and it was able to stop the water. It also filters well. However, there are two problems. First, it is difficult to clean. It must be disassembled as shown in the video. And because I cook a lot of meat, sometimes it gets greasy and this thing gets TERRIBLE if it's not cleaned often. oil accumulates. When I opened it last night there was so much crap in it I actually wanted to throw it away. You can see in the video it still looks bad. Actually I cleaned it with my hands…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Great camouflage for faded stock

My sink drain has been dirty since I bought the house. I rubbed it down with a ridiculous amount of different cleaners but couldn't do any better. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my well water. Also, I only had one filter plug, which also looked disgusting and rarely stopped the water from draining. This little gem made my day! It hides my awkward drains and prevents water from leaking. I'm so excited! These are little things. Literally. The first photo is a "before" photo showing…

Pros
  • Good to use
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Not amused. Constantly clogged.

I have an OXO sink strainer that doesn't work as a stopper. I love it. I bought this for the other half of my sink thinking it would be just as great. But that's not the case. The stopper handle takes up quite a bit of space, which means there are fewer holes for water to drain. The coating on the underside prevents further water flow and makes thorough cleaning of the holes almost impossible. This means that it clogs very easily and is not easy to clean properly. I always empty my dishes in…

  • Everything is fine!

Lost situation for buyers

Update 4/28/2020: item was returned for refund and received by Amazon on 4/24/2020; Refund has not yet been granted. I bought an OXO Good Grips 2-in-1 sink strainer stopper to replace a cheap steel strainer in my sink. It seems that these cheap ones all break within a few months. I turned it on as soon as it arrived (about 20 minutes ago). So I figured a filter/connector that costs 500% more would be at least 100% better. I hate it when I'm wrong! Made from silicone, this product has a steel…

  • Absolutely amazing!

Well designed at Drains & Strainers

I agree with the other, it seems crazy that I should be so excited about a kitchen sink filter and possibly a sign of aging (although I've crossed that Rubicon already). a 5 star knee brace rating), but it's the little things you deal with every day that you don't notice until they cause more trouble than they're worth. That was my old sieve. It was a cheap all-metal thing and it filtered food really well. But it didn't sit flush with the surface of the sink, so I had to keep picking up things…

  • Permanent Test Results

At least not a very good product.

It pains me to write this because I love OKO cookware in general but this one is useless. I used it for a few months because I don't like contaminating products without an honest trace. After 5 months I have to say that "Filter/Drain" is a total failure. It doesn't drain well (or not drain at all) if it contains any type of waste. It gets slimy and unpleasant very quickly so it needs to be cleaned/washed thoroughly with soap inside and out at least once a day and constantly emptied while…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Disappears

Interesting but imperfect design

I've been using this filter only version for many years and while it wasn't perfect it did the job well so I immediately went after the 2 in 1 filter /stopper grabbed . the version where I broke the classic style stainless steel plug. Unfortunately, this model has some disadvantages: 1. As a filter, it is not good at filtering out smaller particles and also easily clogs with the amount of material that any other filter would easily handle. The sink I put it in recently clogged, although the old

  • Easy to install
