 I've been using a similar replacement sink strainer
I purchased mine from a specialty (kitchen/chef) store in the mall. It's not a Sinkware 5049, but an RPI 5049, so I'm going out on a limb here and assuming they're similar. Mine has a sticker price of $2.99.
I've had problems for years with clogs in the kitchen drain. The standard sink strainers have holes that are too large and bigger pieces simply make it down the drain and clog it, so you basically need a snake to clean it, which not everybody has, naturally. Since I've been using this strainer, I haven't had any clogs at all. I'd say I've had it for probably 2 years now. Well, the only clogging I get is when the strainer gets full of gunk, which is quite often, being it's screen with small holes. Sometimes water will begin to back up into the sink. There's a few ways around unclogging; either let the water seep down on it's (I don't have the patience for that), loosen it up with a spoon (to be removed after the water has left) or scoop out whatever's in the strainer with a spoon into say, a paper towel standing by. I recently went back to my same store and purchased 2 more, even though I don't need replacements yet. I'd much rather have them on stand by, if I ever do need them.
 Inexpensive, temporary solution
It seemed to be a perfect solution to our sinks open drain. It was also very affordable. After two months of having it, it is now starting to deteriorate. Things stick in the screen and do not rinse out easily, some things I have not been able to get out at all. The edges of the metal lip are already showing decay and it also has things that will not come off easily. It has turned out to be more work than I would have ever guessed. Well, more work if you don't like rotting food stuck on it.
However, if you are looking for a temporary and VERY affordable fix. This is perfect. I just wish the temporary fix would have lasted a little longer.
excellent sink strainer
because of the extended rim on this strainer, it catches more in the basket. very well made i would definetly buy this product again
