Replaced the strainer of my Teka Jumbo kitchen sink with a better one

I had been troubled with drain blockage problem under my Teka Jumbo kitchen sink every 1-2 years.

The strainer that come with the giant size stainless steel sink looks good. Just that I think its gap is still a little bit too big, and there are food substances managed to drop into the drainage pipe, accumulated there and causing blockage after some times.

I found this Haodex brand L-size stainless steel strainer with handle selling at the price of RM5.5 at local online store, with smaller straining holes, which is a good solution for my kitchen sink straining problem.

Its quality is pretty good. It is quite thick and very solid, compared with some other cheaper similar products also available in the e-commerce stores.

Although there are many Japanese words printed on its packaging cardboard, there are 3 English words mentioning its place of origin: Made in China.

It fits perfectly with my Teka Jumbo kitchen sink. Its handle makes it very easy to be taken out from the sink, for us to clear away the food substances trapped in it.

And this is its measurements for your reference:

By the way, my original Teka Jumbo kitchen sink strainer is of the type as below:

Note that there are 2 limitations with the new Haodex brand L-size stainless steel strainer:

• Unlike the original Teka strainer, this strainer does not have a rubber stopper to temporarily stop water from flowing out of the kitchen sink.
• As the new strainer has much smaller holes, the water flow out rate is slower than the original.

Therefore, it is advisable to keep the original strainer, just in case you want to use its rubber stopper function occasionally.
