The buzz around this cookware started when one dedicated member of the Kmart Home Decor and Hacks Facebook group shared his experience.
“This handy little thing extends over your sink in either orientation,” she explained, detailing the various ways she's discovered to use the product beyond its intended purpose of straining vegetables.
“An extra draining tray to hold cups, cutlery, baby bottles etc in a small sink. Use it for peeling vegetables, rinsing veggies and fruit, defrosting if you're having a BBQ, holding ice etc – the uses are endless.”
“I have two,” another member chimed in. “They fit perfectly over my second sink.”
“I'm gonna have to buy a couple,” exclaimed one member of the group, followed by another enthusiastically declaring, “I love them!”
“Oh I want one!” said another.
“Everyone needs it!” someone laughed.
And for those questioning its durability, especially when it comes to cleaning, one helpful comment offered some reassurance: “I put mine in the dishwasher and it's fine.”

So whether you need an extra draining tray, a veggie washing station, or a party hack for your next BBQ, this expandable sink rack looks to do it all, and at just $3, there's no excuse not to buy it.
