How well does the silverware caddy drain? My current one has so few and small holes that I had to use knife and then a screwdriver to create more.

The silverware hole is small. You are correct. I use screw driver drill it bigger. I bought one from Costco on sale for $25.00 much better and bigger. You should try it. Wait till it has $5.00 coupon. Otherwisw you pay $30.00. It works great! Good luck. Thuc

It always drains. I've had it on my counter right by the side of the sink and it drains in to the sink. My double sink has a large deeper side and a smaller shallow side. This drainer fits in to the smaller side perfectly. I've even rinsed strawberries and other foods in it because the prongs that stick up are fairly tall and a hard plastic. I find that this drainer holds a lot of dishes. I'm glad I found it and I love that I could get a red drainer to match the other red touches in my kitchen!

It depends in the hole that you currently have. Most likely the hole you have is to big for this sink.

No, it does not come with holes. I had my husband drill them in the bottom of the plastic drain dish it comes with because I leave it in the small section of my sink and need it to drain. I don't use it on my counter.

No drainage holes, but I drilled several quite easily using a large diameter bit. Don't know about a drain tray - sorry.

First time I have ever purchased and kept a dish drain this long! I have not had any problems whatsoever in any way I load it. I do not have a dishwasher so it is pretty loaded sometimes. I keep mine to where it hangs right over the edge of the sink so the water will go into the sink that drains off the dishes instead of draining onto my counter top. Would I recommend it, yes, for me personally it has satisfied all of our needs.

It drains alright but you'll have to spray debris down the drain... It also scratches easily, but they can be taken out with a scotch pad. It's beautiful and I'm happy with it, but there is some effort involved.

I do have a hole and I am sure there was one in the illustration. The hole is too small for my sink, but I like the grid and just lift it to remove the stopper.

There are 5 holes marked. We used 3. You will need a hole saw if you want to use more than the one that is pre drilled. Very easy to do. I love this sink!

It does have a small slit drain underneath the section for silverware. It's handy for hanging over the edge of your sink, although in practice there isn't enough slope for the water to actually drain.

Holes, and I've been VERY happy using the smaller one works in my sink, but could use the bigger one too. Also learned that the hot water drives grease down the drain even thru these strainers, but much easier to clean out once in a great while or so.

I have a 20 inch pot with a 14 inch diameter drain dish under it...the pot is tapered toward the bottom...and the drain dish fits perfectly in the caddy. This is a wonderful caddy...very sturdy. I havea seven foot miniature orange tree in it that's really heavy, and it's still pretty easy to move it all around. Hope this helps.

It drains from the front underneath the utensil holder. It works very well and I love it.

The tray is shallow and flat with grooves to drain. The problem is that the end farthest from the sink is not raised so, being flat, it does not drain well. I would think a raised sink would make it drain away from the sink and would accumulate the water in the tray until it overflows ... but which way?!?!?

There is a drain pipe very low to the ground.its a pain to drain so cut a groove in a large Tupperware. It lasts 12 hours.

The location of where the basket strainer hole is should not be of major concern. The plumbing under sink can be adjusted with an offset drain adapter if location is different. Worry more about how deep a sink is.

I have it under mounted in my kitchen where it has been working quite well. Bear in mind, the sink is uncommonly deep and so things must be carefully measured. The plumber and I had to do some last minute re-jiggering but all work for the best. It's a very good, attractive sink but must be expertly under mounted.
