Familiar with the feeling of being unable to drain into your sink because it’s filled with dirty dishes? Just made a fresh pot of spaghetti and before the noodles overcook you need to drain the water? But can’t. With the Sink Side Strainer, you absolutely can! The countertop strainer simply makes sense. It’s cleaner, easier and more importantly, safer.
What Is The Sink Side Strainer?
The sink side strainer design reduces the risk of steam burns, spills and far more sanitary than your freshly strained food being exposed to the possibility of mixing with your dirty dishwater. Perhaps you are cooking several dishes at a time in your kitchen – cleaning raw chicken for example, in the sink, and needing to rush to drain that potato water – you don’t want to take those sorts of chances, especially for your family.
How Does It Work?
The sink side strainer sits on top of the counter, with a unique angled design and aqua slide technology that funnels all the liquid into the sink, similar to that of a waterfall. The strainer is sturdy enough to hold up to 5 pounds of potatoes (or other food items of your choosing of course).
Having the ability to drain water – liquid from vegetable cans, cleaning fresh fruit and veggies, potatoes and more, is an exceptionally nice feature.
Features
- Food doesn’t touch the sink
- BPA free, dishwasher safe
- Ergonomic design
Ever cringed at the thought of your cooked pasta noodles touching the bottom of your sink?
There have been and continue to be dozens of different strainers or colanders on the market – both, in traditional stores and infomercials similar to As Seen on TV. A good indication that consumers are continuing to seek out the very best strainer for their kitchens. There are the traditional strainers that sit inside your sink while you pour out the (often boiling hot) water – This is where cross contamination is probable, risk of injuring yourself as well. Then there are the handheld type strainers, often used for very small quantities of fruits for example, and ideal for washing and rinsing instead of draining boiling water for example.
Unfortunately, one of the downfalls to this design of the sink side strainer, is if you were straining something and there was too much and it overflowed, or missed the side, etc. instead of cleaning a mess inside your sink, you would be cleaning one on your counter-top.
We would like to think that the pros outweighs the cons, especially in terms of safety.
