tgosomt KSS-03 Kitchen Sink Drain Strainer Stopper, Brushed SUS304 Steel

If you want a sink drain accessory that can catch food scraps and also let you hold water in the basin, the tgosomt KSS-03 combines those functions in one push-button unit. Its removable basket and brushed SUS304 stainless steel construction make it a practical choice for everyday kitchen cleanup, provided your drain matches the listed dimensions.

The design switches between draining, straining, and stopping water with a push-and-release action. The main buying consideration is fit: the listed compatible drain diameter is 2.95 to 3.42 inches, with a depth over 1.46 inches.

Tips for day-to-day use

Use the open strainer position while washing dishes or rinsing produce so the basket can catch food residue before it reaches the drain. When you need to fill the sink, press the stopper into its closed position, releasing it allows water to drain. The basket lifts out for residue removal, which keeps routine cleanup straightforward without needing to remove the whole drain assembly.

Before ordering, compare your sink opening with the stated size range rather than relying only on the “US standard 3-1/2-inch” description. The product details list a compatible groove diameter of 3.42 inches and a depth over 1.46 inches. If your drain falls outside those measurements, this model may not seat as intended. The package is listed as containing two items.

Why it makes sense

The KSS-03 is aimed at buyers who prefer a single fitting for catching scraps and stopping water instead of managing a separate stopper and strainer. Its push-button control provides a simple way to change between those tasks, while the removable basket makes it easier to clear collected debris. A built-in brass bounce device is also listed, with the manufacturer stating it was tested for a 100,000-use lifespan, that is a stated test claim, not a guarantee of how long every installed unit will last.

Buyer feedback often highlights ease of operation, appearance, fit, and its ability to catch food without noticeably slowing drainage. Durability feedback is less consistent: some buyers describe the unit as sturdy, while others report peeling finish or rust. Reports mentioning a black finish may relate to a different finish variant, so they should not be treated as proof of how this brushed version will hold up. Water retention feedback is also mixed, with some buyers saying it holds water and others reporting leakage. It’s a great fit if your drain dimensions match and you want the strainer and stopper functions together. You may want to skip it if your sink opening is outside the listed range or if dependable water retention is your main priority.

Before you decide

How do you operate the stopper? Press and release the unit to switch between holding and draining water, the removable basket can be lifted out to clear residue.

Will it fit every 3-1/2-inch sink drain? Not necessarily. The listing gives a compatible diameter range of 2.95 to 3.42 inches and requires a depth over 1.46 inches, so measure the opening and depth before choosing it.

Can it catch food while water drains? The basket is designed to catch residue in the draining position, and buyers commonly mention that function. Reports about water retention are mixed, so feedback does not establish that every unit will hold water without leaking.

Should you buy it?

Choose the tgosomt KSS-03 if its measurements suit your sink and you want one removable, push-button fitting for straining, draining, and stopping water. Its combined design is more useful than a simple catch basket when you also need to fill the basin. The mixed reports on water retention and durability are worth weighing if a reliable seal or long-term finish is essential to your decision.
