Rev-A-Shelf SBDT-3942-A-1 Under Sink Base Drip Tray Cabinet Accessory, Almond

I bought the first one for a home that I sold. It prettied up an ugly cabinet under the sink and helped give it a more organized and neat look so when I moved to my new home I bought another. The new home sink cabinet was much larger and had a center piece that the other did not have. It was not easy to get it in but with force was able to. I really assumed I would ruin it when I did because I had to bend it so much but luckily it was fine. I would recommend definitely cutting the corners before installing to account for the wood on the inside corners. It's a very think material and not easy to cut so you would not be able to do so after installation and those cuts make all the difference in the fitting of the mat.The color is very close to the inside of the cabinet and blends in well. If I move again would buy one again and again. Highly recommend.

This tray was just the right thickness. I had to cut mine to fit my area due to two obstacles. I used a plastic welder to weld the seams together (you can get a nice welder from Harbor freight or on Amazon) I also but waterproof gorilla tape on the backside just in case the weld broke. So far it has worked great when the garbage disposal broke a month later and was leaking, we found out right away because the tray funnels the water to the front where it dripped on the floor, so we knew right away about the leak. The other lead was the spray hose from the faucet which also we were treated to the issue due to the floor getting wet as we used the sink.When I get around I might take some pictures to add to this. I have considered daming up the front part of the tray and putting an water alarm since our flooring is wood. This would allow you to get a alarm if water starts to build up instead of having to step in it.

Had to modify to get it to fit in place, but with a few cuts. The shelf tray went right in.

This turned out great but installation was a slight challenge. I learned why it is recommended for new installations since it is a bit too stiff to bend around our sink cabinet's center vertical divider with various plumbing components in the way. I trimmed the back edge to fit perfectly, scribing it a few times with a utility knife and straight edge before breaking off the edge with pliers. Then I cut it in two pieces down the middle using a fine tooth electric saber saw. Any fine tooth saw would work fine, although a circular saw might be best because it would provide a very straight cut. I sanded the edges smooth, and the two pieces went into the cabinet like a breeze. I sealed the joint using marine grade waterproof transparent tape (called hatch tape, available from Amazon for about $5). You could use adhesive but this was fast and easy, and the pieces can be readily separated if necessary. The joint is almost invisible. My wife loves the look and we don't worry about drips from the plumbing any more.

I cut easily with a razor. It’s almost impossible to get it into the cabinet opening and into place. Cutting it in half defeats the waterproofing. I wish it were a bit more pliable.

I have not yet installed the under sink drip tray as it is so rigid that it will have to be cut in half to fit in under the sink. Cutting the tray then caulking the seam after installation is not a good solution to having a tray that can collect water from the fixture if that should occur. The base cabinet has a vertical center stile which prohibits the drip tray being installed in one piece. The stile is not remove-able, so the drip tray would need to be cut in half to allow it being placed. I have now seen other drip trays which are flexible and would allow installation.

Scoring with a box cutter doesn’t quite get the job done. This is hard thick plastic. I now wish I’d gone with a thick rubber or silicone mat which would have been more flexible to fit under the sink. This does not fold or bend.

The mat may have been good, but we could not use it as it was not flexible and therefore could not be bent to be installed under our kitchen cabinet. We returned it.
