Decent product and better designedAnneDecent product and better designed compared to standard North American products5
This product is essential toIsabellaThis product is essential to save your drains from getting clogged. For a nice clean look, purchase the flat cover. Would be better value if it included the cover in the cost. The middle part (pull that you grip onto) becomes lose overtime. Also this does stain brownish, so needs replacement every few months.5

Stopper will not sealAndreaBought and installed the porcelin sink with baskets and stoppers. Sink would slowly drain and not hold water. Removed baskets and exchanged for 2 new ones. just reinstalled the new baskets and still the same thing, sinks will not hold water. Seems like IKEA knows about this and hasn't fixed this huge issue.........1

Not the best quality. OftenMichelineNot the best quality. Often twists apart.1
Good strainerDanielWorks good. Fits my ikea sink. Dont know how it will fit other brands. I gave 4 star because I think they should sell the strainer separate from the housing as I only needed the strainer.4
Does not hold water in sinkAntonellaAs many other reviews stated, it does not keep sink full of water, very frustrating.1
Kitchen sinkMargaretWe bought this sink a couple of months ago. We love the sink but the stoppers don't engage completely so the sink does not stay full of water. Would be great if you had a fix for that.4
Sink strainer rustedVerified BuyerI have had two of these units in my double kitchen sink. One of the strainers ball bearing catch within the stem of the strainer had rusted shut and does not allow the stopper to drain as it just slips down and blocks the drain. I have taken the strainer out and can only use one side of the sink at a time. I have checked with IKEA and to replace this unit I have to buy the whole $10 unit , just to buy the strainer. I Love the flat stainless steel cover as it makes the sink look clean and tidy. I am still looking at other suppliers to see if I can find a strainer that will accept the flat stainless steel cover. I don’t know why IKEA does not sell the strainer separately as they do for the cover plate.2
Does not hold water.Verified BuyerBought this for the HAVSEN Apron front double bowl sink (which I love!) but this strainer with stopper does not stop the water from seeping away. Does not work.1
Sink strainer/stopperMarjaI bought this with a sink and it works great. It keeps the water in the sink.5
Excellent designVerified BuyerWell made out of heavy duty material. I don't expect to see the steel pit and rust as some other strainers do. The deep basket traps a lot more debris without clogging. The open and close function is simple - pull up to open, push down to close. Unlike the typical strainer where you have to rotate it to try and get it to catch and stay open. Don't attempt to use just the basket with an existing drain, it will not work properly. If installed properly with the gaskets in the correct location, it will seal completely. If you don't know how to intall plumbing - hire a plumber.5
Works Great, Looks GreatSarahI have been using this sink stopper in my Ikea farmhouse sink for a few months now and it works well. I don't have a dishwasher so I wash the dishes in the sink 100% of the time and I have never had issues with this stopper. It's easy to push in and pull out and when it collects food bits they are easy to shake into the trash bin. I have no complaints!!5
Terrible product - doesn't hold waterLynneI bought this as a replacement for the stopper in my IKEA sink. This doesn't stop the water from draining. Took it back and got a new one - same thing. This product should not be sold.1
Lillviken sink strainerVerified BuyerI bought this 4 months ago. Have had trouble with water leaking since we installed it. Very disappointed.2
Story

Our take on plastic

Plastic is a key material for IKEA and remains so going forward. It is strong, durable, lightweight and versatile. It is a main component in a large amount of our products and has a wide variety of applications from surface materials such as paint and foil, to screws and shelf pegs. There is a lot of valid concern regarding how plastic impacts the environment and at IKEA we take this very seriously. As part of our larger circular journey and transition from virgin fossil based material, we are working hard to change all plastic in our home furnishing products to plastic made from recycled and/or renewable raw materials.

Only recycled or renewable plastic

Plastic is most commonly derived from oil and gas, which are non-renewable fossil sources. These sources do not renew themselves and will eventually be depleted. Our ambition is that by 2030, all plastic used in our products will be based on renewable or recycled materials. Renewable plastic is made from materials such as vegetable oil, corn, wheat grain and sugar cane. Recycled plastic allows us to give a second life to non-biodegradable products such as PET bottles that would otherwise end up in landfill. Using recyclable sources also lessens our dependency on oil as a raw material. Currently more than 40% of our plastic products are based on recycled and renewable materials and our aim is to reach 100%. As we add products made from recycled and renewable materials to our offer, we hope to inspire other companies to do the same.

Phasing out single-use plastic

Single-use plastic items pollute ecosystems if not disposed of responsibly. As part of our commitment to people and the planet, all single-use plastic products from the global home furnishing range were phased out in 2020. This includes items such as plates, cups and plastic straws offered in our restaurants, bistros, and cafes. These were replaced by disposables made from 100% renewable sources.

PET and PP, our most commonly used plastics

Polythylene terephthalate (PET) and Polypropylene (PP) are durable, hygienic and shatter-resistant plastics. They absorb very little water and have good chemical resistance. Both PET and PP can be reused and recycled, which reduces waste and gives the product several lives through use and reuse. PET is the most recycled plastic in the world and can be used for many different purposes such as plastic bottles and containers for packaging food and beverages as well as for personal care products, pharmaceuticals and many other consumer products. At IKEA we mainly use recycled PET in boxes, filling material for textiles and kitchen front foil. PET is approved by health-agencies as safe to use for food and beverage. IKEA uses recycled PET that is post-consumer based, which means it is based on collected and sorted PET bottles.

Clean and safe

IKEA takes product safety very seriously and all products are tested and comply with the strictest possible laws and safety standards on all IKEA markets. Customers should always feel confident that products bought at IKEA are safe and healthy to use. IKEA wants to minimize or totally refrain from the use of chemicals and substances that can be harmful to people and the environment.

Together, we can do more

Our journey towards only using recycled or renewable plastic will take some time and require new ways of doing things, but we are determined to take responsibility and find new solutions. We want to give our customers the possibility to choose products made from more sustainable materials that can be recycled again one day. Together, we can make a big difference!
