Looks like a good deal for this perhaps not so necessary item. I think it's pretty good as we just the bowl that came with the colander but I got shutdown by the boss.

Best price on the camels and seems quite expensive elsewhere.

About this item

  • Removable plug feature allows you to drain or strain water, eliminating the need to lift or empty a heavy bowl
  • Straining plug catches large food particles, helping to prevent sink blockages
  • Steep bowl sides keep water and soap suds inside
  • Large handles on the bowl make carrying easier and safer
  • Comes in a range of colours

Edit: Sorry the title is so long. Only blue at this price.

Edit 2: Backorder now.

    A sink to put in your sink?

      That's the way the boss likes to wash things up. She looked at the way we do it in Australia when she visited my work once and she looked like a stunned mullet. Waved my hand in front of her face like in the movies.

        >>These sink containers are a great idea: For everyone that has missed out/ does not want to pay $25<<
        I just use an empty (square) 4 litre budget plastic ice cream container, not as good or as durable, but a similiar idea.

      For whatever reason, UK homes “always” use a tub in a sink.

      just had a laugh about this with my English g/f. She thinks it's normal. I guess it came from the time when double side-by-side sinks didn't exist and if you needed to chuck a bit of leftover tea out, you could do it in the gap between bucket and sinks. Now double sinks are a thing, and it's just not something they've let go of.

      Might seem weird, but I've seen it implemented quite well. A larger metal sink with not so great hot water slowly getting to temperature leads to wasting a lot of water and energy lost through the cold metal. A plastic and rubber container isn't so much of an issue with this and you do use less water because it's within a smaller space. Less likely to chip or break things against the sides if you're a bit rough with your dishes. The benefits of having one of these for outdoor BBQ's and camping speak for themselves too.

      Didn't know it was an English thing but my gran (I'm over 50 now) always used a plastic bowl in the sink and took the water out to the garden. I like the idea myself as these days we waste so much mostly cause we're lazy …

      • Definitely English, my mum still washes up with a washing-up bowl, I stopped doing that way after I moved to Australia and moving in with my girlfriend, now wife.

    Good for outdoor use

    • This we have a very small sink in our caravan that combined with short faucet is a pain to wash up in. this could be good solution

    • +2

      also good for the apartment with a single sink or use it for just vegetables.

      • Exactly what we use it for. Washing garden veg

  • Can’t argue it’s a good price I guess

  • OOS but on back order now

    Just a quick question. Do I need this if I have a washing machine?

    • ….. Sure.

    • To wash your clothes in it?

  • +2

    I don't know about the price but it would, probably, be decent for peeling vegetables into. I tend to use one of my colanders for that as it makes it easier to collect all the peelings and put them into the yoghurt tub I use for my veggie scraps for the worm farm.

    Yo dawg! We heard you like sinks so we put a sink in your sink!

    Just as a random post. I watch those house hunter International shows on the telly and people in America don't seem to have sinks in their laundries. How do they wash their "smalls"?

    Same price similar size for those who want extra compartment

    • Nice find, you should post that as a deal seeing this was so popular.

    • It's probably better in some ways but I can't get past how just a few differences in styling and colour make it look cheap somehow. That's just me though.

    wash clothes like 1960

  • +1

    Thank God. I've gone through so many buckets having to drill holes in them to get the water out.

  • The collapsible ones are better.

  • Great item with so many useful purposes starting with Washing new born , small puppies, to whatever you can stretch your creative mind

    • +1

      The last time we bought something that was collapsible like that (laundry basket?) we used it once and never again. I guess if you really need the space it's a good idea. It just felt really weird to use.

  • Dishwand, and a little running water to rinse. Always best to wash dishes immediately but I often leave them for days. Dishwasher is good too and most efficient.

    I remember reading about some woman doing something like this but for dirty laundry if I recall correctly.

    She was Australian and made a fortune from selling it.

    Was probably from news.com.au or smh.

    Edit : ah yes here it is

    • Wow she struck gold there! Amazing what people will pay top dollar for though. It's basically just a small bucket with holes inside a bigger bucket lol.

      • +1

        Yeah makes you think what else will people pay money for lol

        I guess it kind of solves a problem but yeah I'm a cheap diyer myself so it would be last resort.. Rather get cheap buckets and then drill a tiny hole in one and hang it on top of another.

        • too expensive, 19L for $60.
          The bucket from Bunning is $6

          • @wangsk: Yeah my thoughts exactly.

            I have a feeling most of the sales were gifts anyways when going cheap does not look good on the gifter.

  • Reject shop sells knock off for about $10

    • I could only find the Collapsible Sink $9.50.
