FAQ
Will it fit my sink?
The arms extend from 14.5" to 19", which covers most standard and farmhouse sinks. Measure your sink's inner width to be sure.
Can it hold a pound of cooked pasta?
Yes — the 5 qt basket is deep enough for a family-size batch of pasta or a large salad.
Does it scratch the sink?
No. Both arms are tipped with soft silicone that rests gently on the rim.
