Thumbs up brass shower strainer--but avoid installation problems
A great looking polished brass shower strainer with matching screws. A word of caution as I unfortunately found out during installation: The 2 included brass screws are machine screw-like screws and are not tapered screws like wood screws or sheet metal screws. This can be a problem if the screws used for the drain cover being replaced were tapered screws. Trying to force the machine screws into tapered screw holes will likely cause the machine screws to bind, as occurred in my installation. The shoulders on the Phillip's head of the screws were sufficiently soft that they rounded-out after the screws did bind before being fully screwed in, also rounding-out as I tried to back the screws out. Hence, I was unable to get the screws fully seated or to remove them after binding during installation. To avoid a similar installation problem, I suggest drilling the screw holes with a drill slightly smaller than the diameter of the screws being used for installation to avoid their binding during installation. Trying to forcibly screw the screws during installation may not work and may result in a similar problem as I had.
