Lint Hair Trapper for filtering Washing Machine Utility Tub and Sink drains-reusable and customizable with built-in overflow guard. Traps Lint, hair and debris from drains, replaces all Mesh filters

I installed a laundry sink into my basement to act as a strainer for a washer I was adding. I didn't want excess lint going down the drain and getting stuck due to low flow in that drain. My father had a similar set up on his washer, and had installed a PVC tube sticking up out of the sink drain to act as a filter. He drilled small holes all around the pipe. Initially, I decided to copy him. After the pipe clogging up 5-6 times in a week (lots of lint being laundered I guess), I looked for options and found this. This device works wonderfully. It's super simple to clean and can collect a lot of lint before clogging up. It works so well I bought a second one and sent it to my dad to replace his home made pipe filter drain thing. Great item!

I have a washer than drains into a slop sink, and I have pets, so I use metal lint drains on the end of my drainage hose. If I don't, I'll have a clogged drain in about 3 days. I still use the metal link socks, but this does a great job of catching lint and fur that sneaks through. Just keep an eye on the drainage tub, if you are washing something really furry, to make sure the trap doesn't need cleaning mid cycle. Mine got full and I was worried it might overflow. I think it has an overflow protector, but I want to watch to make sure it works first. But very happy with the purchase and removing the fur is a breeze! UPDATE: The overflow protector works perfectly! I still would check mid-wash if you're washing something really furry though, because the overflow doesn't stop lint or fur from going down the drain, and it's better to keep water moving through the bottom part instead of the overflow hole, for that reason.

I bought this lint trap for my laundry room sink over three years ago and it has worked so well. I love it. It keeps the lint and debris that gets through the mesh strainer and prevents it from going down the drain. But it still allows water to go down the drain. I may have to clean it once every other month, so it’s not something that takes a lot of work to maintain. After three years though, it’s getting a little bit harder to clean in between all of the grooves. So I ordered another one. Because why mess with perfection?

Works as it should and i use it for the laundry tub which gets more use and is good at keeping lint, hair and debris out of the drain. Keep it clean and it will work well. Durable plastic, good size, easy to install, and fits the drain well. Water passes through the gates easily, while lint and other material are caught.

Had been using a nylon stocking on my drain hose from my washer but always got full of lint and backed up the washer. Tried those metal strainers but they were a bear to clean. Found this gadget and it works like a charm! So easy to clean too!!! Just take an old toothbrush and slide down the the ridges. All clean, no lint or hair down the drain! Worth every penny!

Don't even think twice! Buy this lint trapper now. I'm about to buy my second one. Our laundry tub has not overflowed since installing this ingenious trap a year ago. It still works great, but we haven't been as good about cleaning it as one could be so it's gotten kinda yucky. It's super easy to install - just stick it in your drain. It fits our drain perfectly and apparently is adjustable to other sized drains. The only downside is that it's not super easy to clean well. But the good news is that you don't need to clean it super well for it to work super well and since it's inexpensive, you can just buy another one once it gets too yucky for your comfort. I highly recommend.

Works perfectly in our wash tub in the basement next to the washer. Keeps all lint, etc. from going down the drain.

Works great in utility sink. The washing machine spin water doesn’t get as high as it did with my old filter. I have a screen and this so not a lot get to it but it still needs cleaning.
