Stainless Steel Sink Strainer Set- 5 Pieces, Fits Most Kitchen, Bathroom Sinks, Shower Drains

(Original review is below)Updated:I raised this from 3 stars to 4. I think they are a great value. They protect my plumbing from hair, food, or other debris. When I first opened the package, I considered them to be "disposable" because of how flimsy they are, but it turns out that they are pretty durable and do a great job. I definitely recommend these.--These mesh strainers are a good value for the low price. However, I don't expect them to last too long. They are a flexible mesh (which is fine, but I thought it would be rigid from looking at the picture).Although I was only looking for a strainer for my kitchen sink, I bought this low priced four pack since it was the same price as other single strainers. The result of that was that although they may be lower quality, I found other places to use the smaller strainers, such as bathroom sink and laundry sink.Overall I am happy with these, but I am sure that they are not the best you can find. They are not too heavy, which means that the sink strainer occasionally moves out of place. But for the most part, it is catching food that shouldn't go down the drain, which is all I wanted it for.

Upsetting. The best one was way to large for a usual typical shower drain. It went in the kitchen sink well and has been useful but i really really wanted it for the shower drain i think it was misleading because it specified good for the shower. I do use a different one in the set for the shower so i still was able to use everything anyway wich is fine. Just not sure it was the best purchase maybe i could of just waited to go to a store for this..

The last strainer I had was a pain to clean; it strained out the hair I don't want to go down my tub drain, but collected the soap, too, which meant I had to soak the strainer to get it clean. Worse, quite soon some of the wires began to break along the edges, making the cleaning that much more difficuly.So far, this strainer doesn't seem to suffer from those problems. The looser mesh it's constructed of collects the hair that caused clogs in my system, but the soap drains away with the water, making it much easier to clean, which means I don't have to scurbit, meing in turn that, hopefully, no wires will break. If you want everything but water strained out of your draining tub, this may not be the product for you. On the other hand, if you're looking for a strainer to help you avoid hair clogs, this works great.

The picture makes it look like these are perforated rigid metal. They are actually just flexible mesh. I looked at the pic after buying them and think it is a legit pic of the actual item and that the perforated rigid metal appearance is just an optical illusion I didn't scrutinize closely enough before purchase. That said, they work fine and the middle size one fit my laundry sink, which I was having trouble getting the right size for. Plus, great company name, almost worth an extra star just for that :-)

After several expensive plumbing repairs that have uncovered fabric-induced obstructions, I purchased both a lint trap for the washing machine effluence hose and these strainers. While only time will tell, we haven't had any blockages so far. If there are any rusting problems, I will update the Amazon community.Mojito preparation -- as these strainers come in various sizes they can be employed when making large-volumes of mojitos. Depending on the size of the bottle to be transported to a party for instance, it would be easier to use the smaller strainers to rid the mix of the mint leaves and particles. That way, the main mixture could be poured directly into a 3L screw-top bottle.

I'm not sure why it's suddenly so very difficult to find mesh sink strainers, but I went to every hardware and/or big box store in my area to no avail, so I ordered this set. Honestly, I just needed the one sized for the bath tub, but it was less expensive to buy a pack. These do work very well; the bath tub one fit perfectly into my drain and catches a ton of hair. Unfortunately, I've only had it about 2 weeks and it's already getting rust spots so I'll start looking for another option. Even so, if you need a mesh sink strainer and you need it now, this is an acceptable product for the price.

These strainer work great. I removed the grill thing in my shower and just use the medium size to collect hair and other shower/bath debris. It works incredibly well an I no longer have a clogged shower drain. The large one I use in my kitchen because I removed my old garbage disposer. It works really well and I just wash it in the dishwasher once a week to keep it really clean. It's made of quality mesh, as are the other sizes in the package. I would buy these again and highly recommend them if you have problems with clogging sinks/bath tubs.

I feel odd raving about a drain trap, but I have to say I love the large strainer (4 1/2) Heavy Duty Perforated Cup! I do the dishes and the lighter weight version of this strainer lifts up a little bit from the sink and allows stuff to get into the drain pipe and cause problems. The heavy duty strainer has a larger outside lip and is weightier, so that nothing slips underneath it. I praise it every time I do the dishes .

Started rusting in a few days of usage. There are cheaper good ones in plastic available in the local stores.

Steel is of low quality. Corrodes in a week.

Very cheap quality. Become rusty after few days.
