MultiFunction single piece design Sink Guard, Waste Food Strainer, Water Stopper, and Food Scraper in one compact unit. The 2.8 inch paddle extension seats into the sink flange and requires no additional assembly. It stays in place while the garbage disposal is operating. Drain protection Catches non food items such as forks, spoons, chopsticks, rings, jewelry, and other small items that could slip into the drain. Especially useful for kids' small forks, helping to prevent costly damage to the garbage disposal. Food scraper and debris management The paddle blade extension acts as a scraper to help collect noodles, food debris, meat juices, and other residues. It facilitates easier rinsing and provides a smooth transition for subsequent dishwasher cleaning. Splash guard and water management The head can rotate to store water, allowing you to soak dishes and then lift it to drain. This design helps prevent non food items from slipping into the disposal and keeps your clothes dry from off sprays. Use scenarios While washing dishes by hand with the disposal running, use the guard to capture debris and protect the disposal from non food items. During family meals, use it to prevent kids' small forks, rings, or jewelry from falling into the drain. When soaking and pre rinsing dishes, rotate to store water and lift to drain before loading into the dishwasher.
