What is the Flex Strainer and how does it work?
The Flex Strainer is a 2-in-1 kitchen sink tool that strains daily food debris while also acting as a stopper for soaking dishes or hand-washing. Made from flexible BPA-free thermoplastic, it fits securely in your 3.5" drain and can be easily lifted out to dump debris. The 5.25" width provides complete coverage of drain flanges for a clean, finished look.
