The upright loading style is different from my old flat rack, so I had to learn how to angle plates to slide in easily. Once I got the hang of it, it works great. The only comment is that cups with wide bases don't fit in the cup slots, so I stand them on the tray. Still does the job.
I was worried the steel would dent or scratch easily, but it's held up really well. I've loaded heavy cast iron plates and it doesn't wobble. The tray wipes clean in seconds. It looks way more expensive than it is. I might get another for my mom.
I replaced a bulky over-the-sink rack that dripped water down the cabinet front. This sits on the counter and drains cleanly. I love that I can store it upright next to the sink when not in use because it's so slim. My kitchen feels more open.
I use it mainly for my kids' sippy cups, small bowls, and silverware. It works okay for that. But I tried to dry a full set of dinner plates and it was too crowded — the plates touched and didn't dry evenly. I wish the slots were a little deeper. It's fine for light use.
The measurements are accurate — it's narrow like the listing says. It took me about two minutes to place it and start loading. I've had it for six weeks and the steel still looks shiny. The tray slides out easily for cleaning. Simple and effective.
I used to have a big bulky rack that took up half my counter. Now I just use this for my everyday glasses, mugs, and a few small plates. It dries them in a couple hours and the tray catches all the drips. I love how clean my counter looks now.
The stainless build is excellent and it does what it says. My only gripe is the bottom doesn't have rubber grips, so it can shift a bit on smooth countertops when I'm loading heavy plates. I put a small silicone mat under it and it's fine now. Not a deal breaker.
I have a double sink but the left side has a drying rack already. This sits on the right side of the right sink perfectly. I use it for my cutting boards and small pots that don't fit in the main rack. It doesn't slide around and the steel matches my faucet.
It's well made and looks nice, but for a family of four with a big meal, we outgrow it fast. I can only fit about half a load of our dishes, so I still use a towel for the rest. If you cook a lot, you might need two or a bigger rack. For small loads, it's fine.
Loved it so much at home I got another for my office kitchen sink. It holds my lunch containers and travel mugs perfectly. The upright slots keep everything separated so they dry faster. I love that it doesn't take up the whole counter.
The rack itself is great, sturdy and the right size for my small kitchen. Only downside is the drip tray is a bit shallow — when I load a full batch of dishes, water pools up and can spill over the edge if I bump it. I just empty it more often. Otherwise happy.
Bought this for my travel trailer sink. It's narrow enough to sit on the small counter and holds our camping dishes and mugs. The tray catches the water so no drips on the narrow shelf. I even use it outside when we cook. Solid and compact.
I've gone through three plastic and coated wire racks that all started rusting within a few weeks. This one is solid stainless and still looks brand new after a month. I leave wet cups and bowls on it overnight and there's no spots or corrosion. Worth the money.
Works well for my everyday plates, but my big dinner plates are a tight fit. They slide in but stick up higher than I expected. I wish the slots were a touch wider. Still, it keeps dishes off the counter and the tray is easy to clean. Just check your plate sizes before you buy.
I was skeptical about the narrow width but it holds a surprising amount. I load it with dinner plates on one side and bowls on the other, and it doesn't tip. The steel feels thick and solid, not flimsy like some racks I've had. After two months of daily use, no rust or bending.
I have about 12 inches of counter next to my sink and this fits with room to spare. I can dry four plates, two bowls, and a couple of cups without them touching. The water drains right into the tray and I just dump it in the sink. No more soggy towel on the counter.
