trust me I know they just don't do well with Elderly parents and food disposals which is why I need them for mom she loves them and her arms are so frail it helps her to wash her dishes so she don't have to scrub just hope I have the credits to win and going to send her the strainer piece so another one don't fall in the disposal..."smile" just a daughters love for her parents I send things that most people would go "HUMMMM" to just wish I lived closer to them with them in their upper 80's living so far away is hard....
