The sink problem
Food scraps stop before the drain does
Flat strainers let rice and peels slip around the edge. Cacticlean sits in the drain like a little basket, so the mess collects where you can lift it out.
Less finger contactGrab the cactus handle instead of touching wet scraps.
Water still movesSide and base slots let rinse water pass through.
Quick resetDump, rinse and drop it back into the sink.

Questions before checkout
Compatibility and care
Will it fit every sink?
No. The basket is 2.95 in across and 1.97 in deep, with a 3.35 in overall height. Measure the opening and surrounding sink space first. Do not use it in a garbage-disposal opening or a drain narrower than 2.95 in.
How does the bottom open?
Lift the basket over a bin and press the top of the cactus. That releases the hinged bottom panel so scraps fall out without finger contact.
Can it go in a dishwasher?
Hand wash only. Rinse with mild dish soap and cool or warm water, then let the basket air dry.
What scraps should I avoid?
Do not add large bones, hot grease or hard shells. Empty heavy scraps before they pile above the rim.
