Stainless still sink grid

[Reflections2021]

Anyone know where I can buy a stainless steel one, that sits in the sink, without spending £££. Looking for something 400x500 approx with the plug position similar to that in the photo shown.

That should read stainless steel (not still!)

The only ones I’ve seen are £85 or more by Blanco

Ooh, that's a lot of money! It's only a glorified cake rack.

@TeaAndStrumpets exactly!have one but did not realise the price of them as it was part of an order for a new kitchen. Now looking for a new one and did not want to spend this much if I can avoid doing so.

I know it's shocking, they think the customer is a sitting duck! I suppose a handy person could get a stainless rack and snip out a square shape for the plughole? But would not look very smart

Genuinely can’t see why they cost so much!

What’s it for? What am I missing..:

I'm sure it's so pots, pans, cutlery..etc dnt scratch the sink when thrown in

Oh right!

OMG I don't mind spending money on beautiful things but £85 on a glorified cake rack?! What's your sink made out of?

Yeah, sink scratches have never really bothered me… Surely the grid gets gunked up with bits of food etc and then it’s just another thing to wash?

Have you looked on Amazon? You can buy plastic see thru ones on there too. It will do the same job.

@Clymene it’s a stainless steel Belfast sink. The plastic ones melts when you place a hot pan in. Funny enough mine doesn’t get gunned up, we have a hose that you can pull down and almost power washes it off after using, which I do to encourage any food bits into the food catcher.

Would love to get a cheapie one of Amazon but can’t find one suitable.

eBay?

I still don't understand what this is for?

I don't understand why you don't just use a wire cake rack.

they are often included in the "kit" when you buy a sink, and are
made to fit.

I can't see any listed

A cake rack might not be stainless so would rust, and might buckle under the weight of heavy pans

A Belfast is pretty big

you might possibly find one listed as a "sink basket"

or you could approach a company that makes or sells Belfast sinks.

There is one 40x40 on here

And lots of sink protectors on Amazon
Search term Belfast sink protector

They have the silicone ones they don’t melt

Thank you all, some good suggestions that I’ll look into.
