Ikea accessories for those who have the Kohler Stages Sink

The following accessories fit into the Kohler Stages sink with slight modification.

1. Black plastic colander Boholmen $2.99, needed to be sanded down 1/4 inch on one end. Blends in with my black soapstone when in the sink.

2. Bredskar chopping board. $19.99, fits when flipped horizontally (short side front to back) in the sink. A LOT thinner and lighter than the huge walnut behemoth that comes with the sink. My 86 year old mom was unable to lift the walnut board out of the drawer to use in the sink but this Ikea one is very light and serves the same purpose. It is think enough to use directly on a counter as well.

I LOVE the Stages sink but prefer a lighter and thinner chopping board like the Ikea one. I will probably never use the very heavy ceramic bowls that come with the sink and designed drawers under my in-sink drainboard rather than using the large metal wire storage that comes with it. Separately those items are sold for a few hundred dollars and I think they should give a choice of buying the sink without those mandatory accessories.
