Three Must-Have Sink Accessories
The sink is one of the most used appliances in your kitchen. It is often used before and after meals, first to clean your food before the meal is prepared and then to clean the dishes after your family has finished eating.
At My Sinks and Faucets, we want to make sure your experience with your sink is as convenient as possible. That is why we recommend adding some of these sink accessories to your kitchen design. These three sink accessories will help you keep your sink in great condition and your cleaning experience fast and easy.
Grate
There are many reasons to keep a grate in the bottom of your sink. First things first, they buffer the sound of pots and pans hitting the bottom of your sink. Muffling the loud noises is necessary if you have young children taking naps or roommates that like to go to bed early. Some people even use grates as a drying rack because the dishes are not sitting directly on the bottom of the sink when placed on top of one.
Soap Dispenser
Soap Dispenser
Everyone needs soap at their kitchen sink, for washing hands and dishes. Including it in the design of your sink is genius because you never lose the soap to another room or forget where you placed it. This nifty accessory lasts for years, and you remove the eyesore of the plastic soap bottle from your countertop. Just be careful what kind of soap you decide to put in there, as some antibacterial properties in the soap can eat the rubber gaskets and cause pumps to stop working.
Strainer with Basket
A strainer is a great addition to your sink if you do not have a garbage disposal. It will catch all of the food that could cause a clog in your plumbing. Double bowl sinks can also benefit from this strainer. If one side of your sink is a garbage disposal, think about adding this to the other side. That way you will catch any extra debris before it hits your plumbing. Without a garbage disposal to help clear the drains, this strainer will save you from having to do any extra plumbing work.
