Kitchen Drain

Does anyone else have an issue with their kitchen drain draining slow? If so, how did you fix?

I've not had issues with mine.

There are a couple things to check. The P-trap for stoppage (*assume you've already been there) and the AAV (air admittance valve). I recently installed a new ($25 @ Lowes) AAV in the bathroom. Took all of about 3 minutes after getting the new valve here. This will help get air into the line when the drain is flowing. If there is no air, the drain flows slower.
I replaced this one with

the better model that looks like this.
