Does let allow the sink to completely drain or does a small amount of water remain?

Mine lets it COMPLETELY drain tho in my opinion, slower than my sink beside it. The circular edge on mine has some rubber stuck on underneath it but does NOT make a water tight fit so water does drain thru it too. I will say the fit is perfect for my sink drain and makes a MUCH quieter garbage disposal underneath this sink. Just for the noise reduction alone, I'd recommend this.

The sink drains great. This is a great item. Easy to clean and you can stick it in the dishwasher as well.

It really depends on the sink. This drain comes with a plastic seal which should work with most sinks. However, I had to use good old fashioned plumbers putty on mine, in addition to the seal. That did the trick and it works fine.

This particular sink has the off set drain. There's not any problems with drainage that I can see. Works just like a normal center drain.

The bottom has a gradual grade so it drains on its own to a nice small opening. The best design for both in the sink or on the counter.

Sometimes, depending on the matter in the sink. Nothing goes down the drain though which is the purpose of the strainer.

Hi Lakiesha, It drains because there is a drain slot on the side. That hole needs to stay over the edge of the sink otherwise the water runs out on the counter. The inside needs to be cleaned out occasionally but that's easy. Of many, many drainers I've tried this is the best!

One section of my sink is about 13"x15". With a drain plug, the normal cycle fills it about half way. It is MUCH less water than washing the same dishes by hand. Also they come cleaner.

Yes, that is exactly how I use mine. My husband drilled several holes through the plastic drain pan it comes with so it wouldn't hold water. I didn't want the metal scratching my sink or leaving rust marks so I place the plastic drainer down first to protect it.

No, it does not interfer with the sink's overflow. Easiest installation ever! We have never had a plug in our sink that actually worked until I purchased this one. Love it!

Yes, I'm really happy with this sink. Never had a problem with it not draining completely.

Well, there's a slit on one end, but the tray isn't slanted. So you would still have to manually lift it to dump the water out. Convenient nonetheless. I have a small double sink and put mine directly in one side so there's no need for the tray. Hope that makes sense!

I have this sink and have no issues with "standing water", however that being said, if you want to save water, you may be disappointed because it takes more water to effectively clean or chase food down the drain. I use a dish brush to sweep food towards the drain and the faucet we have can be pulled down to help out. But as for water not draining, I've not had an issue. Maybe those that are complaining didn't bother to level their sink cabinet?

Yes - the board slants down toward the short end and drains into the sink when positioned correctly.

It's rather flat. The water does not build up in the sink when running unless the stopper is in. FYI I love this sink and have bought it on 2 occasions. Much more useful than a double sink.

No it does not. but its small enough that tipping to drain is not a problem

No, it should fully drain away. Perhaps there is something wrong with the connection, or the pipe is blocked?

It does have a drain hole about 2-3 inches from the top. It suggests sitting the bucket in a sink or tray while it's plugged in just in case. So far, I haven't had the problem of overflowing at all.
