Product review (1 stars): DONT BUY THIS
I have never, to my recollection, given a negative review of anything I've bought online, until now. This object, though it is sized appropriately for our sink, fits snugly down into its proper place with no struggle,,,,BUT after having lived with it for around a year now, it's been so damned irritating, how it SLOWS DOWN THE WATER DRAINAGE TO ALMOST A DEAD STOP, no matter if the disposal is running or not. The vanes are just too stiff, or something, or perhaps the slots are too narrow, or the center hole too small, or SOMETHING!!! We end up having to use a wooden spoon to push food down the hole, and if we want any NORMAL drainage, we have to reach down into the sink, grab this useless piece of work and tilt it in the hole so that water can pass through or around it. The ONLY thing it's good for is in somewhat muffling the sound of the disposal. We've replaced the splashguard before, buying them at a local outlet that went out of business recently, and they were fine. DONT BUY THIS ONE. If you read the reviews, the "1 star" reviews, you'll see that MANY others have had the same disappointing experience. I do, however, have to thank whoever manglefractured this one, for a chance to practice writing negative reviews. Yay, and whoopee ding.
