Understanding Engineered Flex and Sink Protection
When you drop a heavy mug or plate into an empty ceramic basin, the rigid impact often leads to chips or cracks. This BOCCHI sink grid uses a clever structural design where the stainless steel wires are calibrated with controlled flexibility. Think of it like a trampoline for your dishware, where the metal bars give slightly upon impact to absorb the kinetic energy of a falling item rather than letting the rigid sink floor take the full force. Combined with supportive rubber feet, this setup shields both your precious dishware and your undermount sink from accidental daily wear and tear.
Installation Guide
Unpack the sink grid and inspect the rubber feet to ensure they are securely seated on the wire corners.
Place the grid directly into the bottom of your compatible Sotto 18R undermount sink basin.
Remove the grid periodically to wipe down the sink floor and wash away any trapped food debris.
Clean the stainless steel wire and brushed gold finish using a mild soap and a soft cloth to maintain its appearance.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinse Rinse the grid thoroughly after washing dishes to remove soap residue and food particles.
Gentle Cleaning Use warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge to clean the stainless steel wires.
Avoid Abrasives Never use steel wool, harsh scouring pads, or abrasive chemical cleaners that can damage the brushed gold finish.
Check Rubber Feet Periodically check and clean the protective rubber feet to prevent buildup underneath.
Dry Surface Towel dry the grid occasionally to prevent water spots and keep the finish looking polished.
