Do I need to purchase a metal strainer and attach the Anthracite strainer to the metal strainer ? There are no threads on this strainer.

If you received the correct item, it mounts directly to the sink with a large retainer nut and gasket. If I remember correctly they recommend sealing with silicon caulk as well. The unit uses a standard flanged tailpiece to connect to the trap. If the retainer isn't present, you may have the push in decorative strainer designed to push into insinkerator garbage disposals to match the black sink.

Yes. I had to buy a separate stopper, then remove the strainer if i want to fill the sink.

The top port is threaded on the inside for a PVC male adapter, threaded on the outside for a pump union. The top port is the pump discharge, you plumb that end to your filter's intake. The front hole in the part pictured is where the strainer pot connects. I don't believe this is threaded, as the pot connects with 4 bolts to the front housing. You do not connect a pipe to the front housing itself.

No, this sieve / strainer is very small and insubstantial. Its best use might be for straining loose tea over a mug.

Yes. But you can lift out the strainer part and set a finer strainer within it. It would have to be a large one though but it would work in a pinch. Hope this helps you.

I've never tried that. I think the mesh is the same size as the metal strainers.

There is an x grid. We really like the strainer over conventional ones. Hope this helps.

Never needed to put a strainer in the oven, but I see why not. I wouldn't go over 350 deg and be sure to use oven mitts as the handles will get hot.

Absolutely not. You need a true chinois mesh strainer. This is a "china cap" so all of your material will run straight through the strainer.

Rebecca, this metal mesh should work for you. I have used it to mold strainer filters into delicate shapes and they held the shape after several washings.

No strainer with this teapot. Just a side note if you are thinking of purchasing. Because the pour spout is straight and not curved like most teapots, if the teapot is filled to capacity, sometimes when pouring, some tea will spill out from the spout on to the counter or whatever. With that said, I still love this pretty teapot and would not trade it.

I did purchase the LK35 strainer in addition to the sink. Pretty expensive little piece, but necessary! I also purchased the Elkay metal sink protectors for each side. Was able to purchase all on Amazon.

The drain/strainer is NOT included. I bought a nice black strainer kit from Menards and it matched perfectly!

I never found a use for the small strainer. It did not fit our kitchen sink. We use the large one in the bathtub.

I did not (you will not) receive a strainer bag with this kit. I have no clue what nylon product they are referring to.

I have owned the oxo good grips and it has no strainer or filter. It's ss and I use it daily and does not leak or any of the ss show any signs of rust. Would buy again.

Yes! There are drainage holes throughout the entire base of the strainer. The solid base piece is an open ring and does not impede drainage at all. It is a fabulous strainer. I have had both sizes for several years now and love them. Best strainers I have ever had, and they are very easy to clean.
