I bought this for likely a different reason than some. My drain trap broke ... I didn't want to pay a plumber hundreds to fix something I didn't even care about. I mean who plugs up their bathroom sink anyway. I didn't want to buy a chincy sink strainer and I just needed something that looked like a normal drain trap but didn't have the ability to plug. This was the only thing I could find that served that purpose and I couldn't be happier. Also, it has the added bonus of stopping any small valuables from falling down the drain. Thanks much for this great product.
We are selling our house, and were unable to find a replacement sink drain "disc" as it was scratched up and the cheapo metal underneath was showing through. This item matched the color pretty well, fit pretty well... beats wasting more time going all over the universe try to replace the entire assembly.
This was super easy to install. I thought it might be too large (wife) for my drain but it fit perfectly. It also looks good. I may replace another drain plug in the same bathroom with this style.
Got the wrong one for my drain but I love it
These look good and solve the problem.

Works well.
Not easy to install.
It’s very easy to fix and looks nice
Easy to install. Looks nice and works!
I raised the rating after finding the button on the side that releases the basket so it can be cleaned. I did not see any directions and it appeared from website that you had to turn it to remove it. Try as I might, it wouldn't come off, so I gave a low rating.
However, I found the button on the side and when you push it in, the two parts detach, making it easy to clean.
I love the idea, as stopped drains have been an issue in our house. The stopper is larger than normal it seems to me but it looks fine to me. Installation was very easy, exactly as noted. I've never changed a stopper before so it was good to know it's that easy. The chrome one appears to be chrome even though all the other parts are plastic.
It would be nice if it were all metal rather than plastic, but that would add significantly to the price. It doesn't bother me that it is all made of plastic. The "basket" is long and does a good job of catching things. Now that I've found how to open it (finally) I can recommend it
First, this stopper does work and is pretty easy to clean once you get it installed. I know some people had trouble with that, but the pictures on this amazon page, plus the video, make that operation (cleaning every few weeks) pretty simple. My issue is with the installation. The way the bathroom sink and counter is set up, the nut that you have to unscrew to install the piece with the holes is in the back of my sink and there is no way one person can hold the stopper AND unscrew the nut unless they had super long arms! So it took two of us to install it. It definitely works good to catch the hair and other items, but there are some things they could improve.
It is definitely made of cheap, plastic materials. Even the top part of the "rubbed bronze" stopper is all plastic. That is not attractive. I don't know how long it is going to last, either, especially if you are a household who opens and closes the stopper frequently. They should have used better materials and made it stronger. And the part that shows should be metal, like the faucet. I think they have a great idea, but it definitely needs some tweaking.
