Perfect For
Busy family kitchens dealing with constant meal prep and cleanup
Homeowners wanting to prevent scratches on new or existing sinks
Kitchens utilizing the compatible VG3620C sink model
Culinary spaces that require efficient water drainage under stacked dishes
Think of the chrome-plated stainless steel grid as a sturdy bridge deck for your kitchen sink, keeping heavy cargo safely elevated above the main roadway. When you place heavy pots, roasting pans, or sharp silverware into the basin, the weight and impact are absorbed by the frame and its vinyl feet instead of grinding directly against the delicate floor of your sink. This clever elevation also allows soapy water and food particles to slide freely underneath dishes toward the drain, preventing messy pooling while you wash.
Installation Guide
Unpack the chrome-plated stainless steel grid and verify that all protective vinyl feet and bumpers are securely attached in place.
Lower the rectangular grid directly into the bottom of your compatible kitchen sink basin, ensuring it rests evenly on its feet.
Remove the grid periodically to wipe down the basin floor and clear away any trapped food particles or mineral buildup.
Wash the grid using mild soap and warm water, then dry with a soft cloth to maintain the polished chrome finish.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the grid thoroughly after washing dishes to remove food debris, soap residue, and sauce splatters.
Routine Washing Clean the stainless steel frame weekly using mild dish soap, warm water, and a non-abrasive sponge.
Vinyl Maintenance Check the protective vinyl feet and bumpers regularly to ensure they remain clean and securely attached.
Dry Storage Towel dry the chrome-plated surface after cleaning to prevent water spots and maintain a brilliant shine.
Avoid Harsh Cleaners Never use steel wool, abrasive scouring pads, or chlorine bleach, as these can damage the chrome plating.

Elevating Your Daily Kitchen Experience
Investing in a quality sink accessory like the Vigo chrome-plated bottom grid offers a smart way to extend the lifespan of your kitchen investments. By creating a physical buffer between heavy cookware and the sink basin floor, you prevent micro-abrasions and dull spots that naturally accumulate during heavy meal preparation. This proactive layer of defense maintains the polished look of your sink without requiring tedious scrubbing or specialized restoration treatments over the years.
Beyond surface protection, thoughtful kitchen accessories contribute to a more organized and efficient culinary workspace. When pots, pans, and mixing bowls rest securely on the elevated grid rather than flat against the basin, rinsing food waste becomes significantly faster and more hygienic. Water flows freely toward the drain without being blocked by flat dishware, ensuring a cleaner sink environment that supports your daily routine from morning coffee prep to evening cleanup.
