Green Ribbed Plastic Utility Basin 2 L and 5 L for Soaking

The bowl that soaked a shirt on Tuesday is the bowl the lettuce gets washed in on Wednesday, because once two basins live under the same sink nobody can remember which was which.

What Are the Key Features of This Green Ribbed Utility Basin in 2 L and 5 L?

• A colour you can say out loud: 'use the green one' is an instruction anybody in the house can follow, so a produce basin and a laundry basin stay separate.
• 2 L for the daily jobs: grapes under the tap, a cake batter, draining a tin, or a place to put the scraps while you prep.
• 5 L when volume is the point: greens fully submerged instead of rinsed, a delicate wash by hand, a tray thawing in cold water, or an hour-long soak.
• No seam to rust under the sink: a steel rim eventually shows rust at the join and an enamel one chips and rusts under the chip; moulded plastic has no join to rust and no enamel to chip.
• Vertical grooves down the outside: something for your thumb to catch on at the moment you lift it out of a full sink, which is when a smooth wet bowl drops back in.

Where Can You Use This Green Ribbed Utility Basin?

• Under the sink alongside the other basins, as the one everybody in the house can name
• A bunch of grapes under the tap, a cake batter, or draining a tin: the 2 L
• A full salad's worth of greens submerged rather than rinsed: the 5 L
• Hand-washing something delicate, or thawing a tray in cold water
• A soak that has to last an hour

Why Choose a Colour You Can Name Out Loud Over One That Blends In?

• The bowl itself weighs 100 g: it adds next to nothing, and a basin full of water is heavy enough on its own.
• It stands flat on the floor as well as in the sink: a soak that has to last an hour can sit out of the way instead of holding the sink while you wash up.

Details

Material & Build

• Moulded plastic, in green: no seam to rust and nothing under the surface to corrode, for a basin that lives permanently damp.
• Non-slip vertical grooves down the outside wall: the grooves are what make the grip non-slip.
• Flared lip: for carrying and for pouring.
• Flat base: stands steady in a sink, on a worktop or on the floor.
• The sizes stack into one another: owning both is realistic in a kitchen cupboard.

Dimensions

• Sizes in store: 2 L and 5 L. 2 L is the everyday size, 5 L is the one bought for jobs that need volume.
• Weight: 100 g.

Care

• Hand wash only. Keep away from scouring pads and heat.
