Protect Your Sinks With the Joseph Joseph SinkSaver

All prices were correct at the time of publication.

I don't know about you, but if I've invested time and money into thrifting some vintage glassware, the last thing I want is for a drop while cleaning my wine glasses to leave them chipped or, worse, smashed.

I also don't want to look at my sink each day and see it covered in scratches and marks. That's why I'm adding the Joseph Joseph SinkSaver Sink Protector Mat, available at Amazon, to my cart right now.

I love it when a simple product is so effective, and that's exactly what Joseph Joseph does so well. Featuring two grid-like sections that lock neatly together to create a secure base with a soft rubber surface at the bottom of your sink, the SinkSaver can be placed in the sink in different configurations to fit around your drain.

Once installed, it protects both your sink and delicate glassware, and the raised non-slip feet allow water to drain away and air to circulate freely. It can easily be adjusted to suit your sink's dimensions, and washed and dried by hand when necessary.

It's no surprise, then, that Renee recently picked up their second one on Amazon, as detailed in their five-star review: 'Love this for our kitchen sink. We bought the same one we had before. The old one had been in our sink for almost 10 years.

'I love that it sits up just a bit to allow smaller bits of food to go down the disposal. I put it in the dishwasher every couple of weeks,' which is a handy tip to know – the SinkSaver is also one of the unexpected things you can put in the dishwasher.

Another reviewer, Gin, adds, 'We were at an Airbnb where they had this sink protector. We fell in love with it and ordered it for our own home. Highly recommend it. Easy to clean and reshape to the way you need it positioned in your sink.'

A third, Minta, dubs the SinkSavers as 'great mats that provide a variety of setup solutions in my hard-to-fit sink. Love these for our strangely lopsided IKEA sink drain openings. I was looking for a few months for an affordable option before finding these. They provide options as they set up in a variety of ways.

'After reading the other reviews, I am glad I took a chance on them. They are thick enough to cushion items from breaking if they slip out of your hand when doing dishes, but not too thick as to be in the way of operating the garbage disposal or decrease the working capacity of your sink. If you are having trouble finding dish mats that fit your situation, give these a try.'
