Best Kitchen Drains of 2025

"I found the Moen Kitchen Sink Stainless Steel Basket Strainer to be a fantastic upgrade! Installation was a breeze, and it fits perfectly. It looks much better than my old strainer that rusted and leaked. The durable stainless steel design gives me confidence that I won’t have to deal with rust or leaks again. This simple change has really improved my sink's appearance and functionality."

"After a frantic search for a putty-free sink basket, I came across this one, and I couldn't be happier. It was easily installed by myself, and the quality is far superior to what I had before—deeper and wider! I highly recommend it if you need a new kitchen sink basket/drain!"

"When I first received the strainer, I was a bit confused by the basket connection, but I went ahead and installed it anyway. It was quick and easy, and I was surprised at how well it seals the sink. However, I noticed that when lifting the basket, some small debris escapes down the drain, which is a minor annoyance. Overall, I’m pleased with the quality and ease of installation."

"I always wait a few months before reviewing, but these strainers have been fantastic. They hold up well, are very sturdy, and the cleaning process is a breeze. I definitely recommend them!"

"I love this strainer! It catches everything and stays in place. It's easy to clean, and I doubt I'll ever need to replace it, as it seems like it will last forever!"

"This strainer is a perfect fit for my sink. It's so much nicer than the old one that came with the house. I only needed one, but having an extra is a bonus!"

"I found these to be a great, budget-friendly option that gets the job done! The stainless steel design fits perfectly in my sink drains, catching all the small food particles and preventing clogs without needing constant adjustments. They are simple to clean, just rinse and go, and they look brand new. For such a low price, I got two high-quality strainers that work as well as more expensive options. I highly recommend them!"

"These strainers fit perfectly in my kitchen sink. They provide great drain clog prevention by catching food items from the dish water. The suction is excellent, and I haven't noticed any slow drainage. They're silver and shiny, and I will definitely buy them again if needed."

"I was pleasantly surprised with this purchase. I expected it to resemble the old-fashioned basket strainers from years ago. However, I immediately noticed that the middle post is plastic and doesn't seem very sturdy. For the price, it works fine, but I wish I had spent a little extra to get a full metal version."

"I used this sink basket set during my home remodel with a new sink. The build quality is solid, and it looks great! Plus, it's a good value!"

"After buying a used class A motorhome, I found the sinks were really dirty. I purchased a few of these, and they really transformed my kitchen and both bathrooms. I’m grateful to Amazon for the quick shipping!"

"I found the installation to be surprisingly easy. Once I removed the damaged parts, everything went smoothly. Just make sure the fitting area is clean! I'm really happy with my purchase."

"I purchased this sink drain in November and wanted to see if I would agree with all the positive reviews. I absolutely do! This is the best drain I have ever used. Its design allows water to flow while collecting food particles. My previous drain caused my daughter to think our pipes were clogged, but after installing this one, we haven't had any issues at all. I rarely recommend products, but this one truly deserves it!"

"I was optimistic about this strainer fitting my kitchen sink, and so far, it works perfectly! I appreciate the sturdy stainless-steel construction, and it fits my drain opening very nicely. I've used other brands that required more effort to clean, but this one only needs a light tap to remove waste, making it much easier to maintain. Overall, I like it and find it performs better than my previous strainer."

"This strainer really works! The stainless steel basket catches food while the holes in the middle plastic part allow water to drain. The only minor downside is that part tends to stick up and can break under weight. Fortunately, I found out that the manufacturer sells replacements at a reasonable price, so I don't have to replace the whole unit. I’m glad I have a spare just in case!"

"I bought these to replace the original strainer my dog chewed. They work perfectly! Better than the original. The two-piece design fits securely, and the basket allows for easy removal of food and debris. I love the press and click mechanism to fill the sink with water."

"I replaced my old strainer with this one, and I’m really happy with my choice. It holds water for 30 minutes while I clean and drains quickly as promised. I appreciate the simplicity of the push system. If I’m not using it, I can stick it to the wall of the sink, which is a neat feature!"

"Before it broke, I was very happy with this product. It performed well and was exactly what I needed. However, the mechanism that makes the strainer pop up broke after just two months. Given the price, I expected it to last longer."

"I've been using this set for a while, and I must say, it's a kitchen game changer! I love how effectively it catches food scraps before they can clog the drain. The strainer fits perfectly into my standard sink, and installation was a breeze. The durability is impressive; no rust or staining after months of use. The stopper is excellent too, preventing back splatter and holding water for soaking dishes. Cleaning is easy; it's dishwasher safe. I highly recommend this set!"

"This strainer fits perfectly and doesn't let anything go down the sink. It's easy to detach and shake out the debris. The stopper has a strong rubber suction that seals water effectively unlike previous plugs I used. I'm very satisfied!"

"I find this strainer to be great but the stopper doesn't fit as well. It allows water to drain out too easily when I'm filling the basin. I've switched to a flat silicone drain stopper that works much better for me. The strainer works well though!"

"I’m really impressed with these high-quality sink strainers. They are well-made and heavy, staying in place perfectly in my sink. For a bargain price, I got two, and the drainage is efficient with plenty of holes!"

"These strainers are absolutely perfect for my needs. They capture almost everything, and even with lots of food scraps, the water still flows through without a hitch. The quality feels solid, and I love that I have a spare just in case!"

"I purchased these strainers and have been very happy with their performance. They effectively catch food scraps without blocking water flow, and I appreciate how easy they are to clean. It has definitely made my kitchen sink much cleaner!"

"As a homeowner with a septic tank, I’m always cautious about what goes down the drain. I found the OXO Good Grips Silicone Sink Strainer to be a game-changer! The silicone material is flexible yet sturdy, making it easy to fit in any sink. It catches even the smallest food particles, ensuring nothing harmful goes down the drain. Cleaning it is a breeze—just a quick rinse. The thoughtful design with the center post makes it easy to remove, and the metal rim creates a tight seal without scratching my sink. I highly recommend this essential kitchen tool!"

"I’m thrilled with this sink strainer! It fits my sink perfectly and is super easy to use. It effectively stops all the food without moving around. The quality is better than I expected, and it’s convenient to lift with the silicone stick. Definitely worth the money!"

"After trying other brands, I was so happy to find this OXO strainer again after a move. It’s been my favorite for over 7 years of constant use! Cleaning it is easy; I can turn it inside out and rinse it off effortlessly. It’s so well made that it spoils me from using anything else. I’m certain this will last me for 20 more years!"

"This is the handiest kitchen gadget ever! I find it extremely easy to use, and it makes keeping my sink clean a breeze. The interior plastic basket catches all the scraps and lifts out easily for dumping. Plus, it’s plastic, so no rust worries!"

"I needed a sink stopper with a good strainer basket for my sink without a disposal. This one fits tightly, holds water well, and the silicone strainer works great!"

"I absolutely love everything about this product; it might even prevent a divorce! While it doesn’t catch as much debris as my old wire mesh insert, it’s worth not having to switch it out for a drain plug anymore. The only slight downside I see is that the removable basket for debris doesn’t seem very durable."
