KrausStainless Steel Strainer, ST-1

I wanted to update our sinks but we have limitations due to our granite countertop. These covers fit perfect and are easy to clean. They fit over the drain hole for easy installation. They are great quality! I also love that the water can still leak to the drain without removing the cover!

The media could not be loaded. We just did a “Dream Kitchen” remodel in our 1929 house. Twin 36” Sub Zeros, Thermador range, new cabinets, quartz countertops with a deep, single bowl under-mount sink. My wife is very happy with it and wouldn’t change a thing. She didn’t know this type of cap even existed. I ordered it and put it in last night and her response was epic. She saw it and said “Oh my goodness! I never even knew I wanted one of those!”. Yep, $80k on a new kitchen and I blew her socks off with a $20 sink cap!First, don’t confuse this cap with one which costs half as much, by GZILA. That one is a sink STOPPER, this one allows water to flow freely past it while installed.Second, I installed it over an ISE Disposal (the industry standard), and as you can see, it is a perfect fit. Others have commented on it not fitting tight and that is true. There is a slight amount of “play” when it is installed, but very little. I have included two separate up close photos with the cap installed. One of them is “centered” and one is with the cap intentionally slid to one side as far as it will go. See if you can even tell which photo is which.This cap will also fit the non-disposal side of a two well sink (Hint: all kitchen sinks [not all wet bar sinks] have standardized holes for drain connections, it is literally “one size fits all”) , so you might want to order two of them.If you are proud of your kitchen, this is the item “you never knew you needed” to make it look so upscale. Just buy one (or two) already. I doubt we will ever be without one of these again.

I pulled this out of the box and I see it looks used. I thought maybe it was just something that could be cleaned. This is bot the case.

Both of the ones I ordered had very poor threads in the plastic for attaching the drain stub. I thought maybe it was my old nut so I bought new down stubs with a plastic nut and same problem. I had to file out casting seams and sand the threads smaller (not at tall peaks) to get it to work. Otherwise they are a fantastic piece that is easy to install and looks wonderful. The stopper works very well. No more turning and pushing to hopefully get a seal, they pop in and seal great. 4 stars because I was very disappointed with the threads being so poor.

This product fit my sink like a glove. It seems to be the original replacement that came with my sink when I purchased home. This was not in any hardware stores locally, I was lucky to have found it on Amazon at an amazing price. Definitely recommended to other homeowners with the same square cut out in sink.

Perfect. Makes sink look extremely nice

The media could not be loaded. Love this drain cover. Hides the ugly disposal writing and still allows draining with running water. Would buy again!

We have a KRAUS double sink - one smaller for garbage disposal. I always hated looking into the dark hole of the garbage disposal in the small sink. The black rubber around it always looks dirty to me. Not to mention the occasional spoon that would slip in or cap from a bottle and then would shock me when I went to use the disposal not knowing it was in there. This beautiful stainless steel cover changed all that. No more black hole and the beauty is water drains right under this so the only time I have to remove it is when I actually want to use the garbage disposal. This makes my sink look cleaner, sleeker and just works! It is great.

Installation facile

Covers the ugly drain and makes the sink look clean and tidy.

Great part

High quality material that enhances the look of our kitchen sink. If you need one, we recommend this item.

I was really excited to use this product but ended up returning it. I have a Kraus sink and it just doesn’t fit the drain well. The water moves it around so it’s never perfectly centered and the water sits on top of the drain cover instead of flowing off, so it just ended up being another item for me to clean. I was disappointed with the fitment with my Kraus sink, and the fact that it just flops around in there doesn’t ever give it that nice decorative look I was going for. Also it doesn’t work with the strainer and it fits even looser over that. All in all I didn’t want something else to maintain and fiddle with, I’ll just leave the strainer instead.
