Is this item water-proof or safe to be placed along the kitchen sink?

If water is splashed on it it does not hurt it and can be dried up, but you've got to be careful when doing so because you can be shocked. It scares you more than hurts you. Too if you put it by the sink you need to always remember to wear shoes so you don't get the static charge.

I don't think so. The battery compartment does not appear to be waterproof. Also, I wouldn't put them anywhere you would come into contact with them frequently while they are turned on, such as a kitchen counter, because they do deliver an unpleasant shock on the medium and high settings.

The scat mat is pretty well insulated and made from plastic so you should be fine. We put it on the kitchen counter and haven't had a Problem. However we make sure the counter is dry before placing it there and do not use the faucet while it's there just to be safe.

While there are no waterproof markings on the unit (I just checked), I don't think I would stick it outside unprotected. I think it would be fine if it was protected from moisture.

A few sprinkles won't hurt it, but a good soaking or two will probably cause some damage. We have ours right next to the sink in our bathroom.

Well, actually this is supposed to be mounted in a sink. It goes in a hole next to the faucet. I guess you could mount it in a counter, but I would not suggest a wood countertop a if there is a leak or if water gets into the area it goes through it will eventually rot out the wood.

I hand wash mine as I would be concerned about its size for the dishwasher. It is an easy enough item to quickly clean in the sink and then put away to get it out of my way. I'm wary of exposing it to the temps in the dishwasher, too.

I would say it is water resistant. I do not think I would put it in a shower stall with me.

Securing it to the sink at the desired level would be the challenge. If you are willing to try and take one apart, you might be able to slim the form factor down to something that would secure to the side of the sink more reliably.

Yes!!! Mine is right above my kitchen sink and it is gorgous! I actually doubt it would be for out door use.

I think it would be too strong! Much stronger than that in a kitchen sink! Use a spray bottle if you'd like to use water.

The unit is weather resistant so it should be fine in normal rain, but it is not water-proof, so it obviously shouldn't be submerged.

Keep it clean as long as you can. That is why you buy a new one! They are great, and really protect the sink!

The item sits between your sinks and cushions the area so that you don't break or chip any of your dishes if you hit the area while moving items from one sink to another. This item also looks good while allowing air to flow under the sink saddle, so there is less mold build up.

I think I might take a metal clothes hanger and string it across the opening of under your bathroom sink and hang a piece of cloth from it, or have a piece of material and fold over 3/4" and stitch along it and slide the hanger thru it. I wouldn't leave it exposed in my under sink. Personal opinion. Good quality plastic.

I use mine at the kitchen sink for washing, it has been great I gave one to our daughter in law and she likes hers also. Have only had them a few months but so far they are good.

Yes, sure. It is made to be used on the side, but there's no reason you cannot put it into the sink.
