Man discovers what the ‘extra hole’ in your kitchen sink is for and it’ll make washing up easier than ever
A MAN has caused a stir online after revealing what the “extra hole” in your kitchen sink is actually for.
The TikToker, who posts under the RightGuysReview account on the social media site, shared a video recently to reveal his kitchen hack.
“Right guys, so I was staring at my sink the other day and I was thinking to myself, what is this other hole with the cap on it for?” he began.
“So I undid it, it came loose and revealed another hole, so I thought maybe you could put another tap in there if you wanted it the other way around.”
He explained that he Googled the hole and found out that you can purchase a soap dispenser to fit in the hole.
“Really really easy to fit, from eBay, cost about £3.99, great invention,” he said.
He then demonstrated how the dispenser works – placing the top part in the hole at the top of the sink, with the bottle full of washing up liquid underneath the sink.
Once the dispenser part was screwed on, he could dispense the washing up liquid into the sink with just a few easy pumps.

“Why am I only finding this out now?” he wrote over the clip.
Despite his amazement at the clever kitchen gadget, some viewers insisted that his first thought was correct – that the hole is actually for another tap if you want the sink orientated a different way.
“The main reason is so the sink can be fitted with the drainer on the left or right, someone’s just made something useful for it afterwards,” one person wrote.
“It’s just so you can switch the sink round and have the drainer the other side,” someone else added.
Others thanked the poster for sharing the hack, with one person writing: “wow I’m 74 yet didn’t know that !! learn something everyday, thank you.”
“It’s great I’ve had one 3 years,” someone else commented. “Never need to unscrew just refill from the top.”
“mind is blown. Love it,” a third person added.
