The OMAIA Sink Caddy is constructed from a SUS304 stainless steel frame designed for high-airflow drying. The open-wire architecture is specifically intended for sponge desiccation, helping them dry faster than they would in solid-walled plastic containers. The unit features a front-loading drip tray made of high-density ABS plastic, which allows for easy cleaning without having to move the entire caddy. The dividers are tension-fitted, allowing for some customization of the internal compartments.
While the stainless steel frame is durable, the longevity of the finish depends on the integrity of the passivation layer. To help prevent surface-level iron deposits from forming—especially in hard water areas—it is helpful to wipe the frame dry periodically. Specifications indicate a static load capacity of 2.5kg; exceeding this weight may cause the wire dividers to shift or the frame to flex. The ABS tray is non-porous but should be kept away from high heat sources above 60°C to maintain its shape.
Installation Note: This unit can be placed on the counter or mounted with adhesive. For the most secure long-term use in high-humidity kitchens, the freestanding countertop mode is recommended.
The front-loading tray is a practical feature for busy kitchens, as it simplifies the process of emptying collected water. However, the dividers lack a locking mechanism, so they may move slightly if pushed by heavy dish brushes.
For a larger capacity metal organizer with a reinforced frame, the Cisily Large Rustproof Kitchen Sink Organizer provides a more heavy-duty alternative.
