The May 2007 issue of Real Simple has featured the OXO Good Grips sink strainer as their featured "Product of the Month." What makes this strainer so great is that the center is actually made of long-lasting silicone. It simply inverts and allows any icky gunk stuck to it to easily come out. It fits most standard sink drains and is $7. Available here.
OXO products have been a favorite of AT since the beginning. Check out ATNY's review of these OXO products here, here, here, and this one from Kitchen. Do any of you use this sink drainer? What is your review?

I have this (two actually). I like it because it won't disintegrate like my cheap metal disk strainers, but the holes are rather large and don't catch the smaller bits. (ok for the side with the grinder, not ok for the side without)
i was just thinking this morning how gross my sink strainer was and that i need to get a new one. love OXO so this is perfect!
now that i know this exists, i will buy it. oxo bodum = happy kitchen
