Product Description
There are three things that drive us batty about dish duty: not having enough space, swampy messes and stacking things haphazardly (hey, we’re sticklers for organization). Thankfully, this customizable dish rack/ glass tray folds in half and helps keep counters clean.

The good:
It will hold plastic ware, dishes such are Correlle that are light weight, pots/pans & heavy items with tines removed or folded down (as noted on box tines are not intended to hold heavy items).
It is a good size unfolded and holds plenty, it folds up easy to free up counter space, a big plus for small kitchens!
The whole thing can be put in the dishwasher for cleaning
The flexibility of adding/removing tines easily to accommodate daily needs.
It's made with environmentally friendly materials
The questionable:
If you have heavy stoneware dishes it may not work, I don't so I can't say for sure but I don't think the tines would hold them well.
The silverware/utensil cup is pretty light and most top heavy utensils I usually lay flay on the rack to dry, it is possible to tip it over.
Overall I would highly recommend this dish drainer.
I wash dishes daily despite having a dishwasher. We have cats and a limited number of cat food plates (for wet food) so we are constantly washing a relatively small amount of dishes by hand. Additionally my sister eats a ton of yogurt, so we are constantly washing yogurt cups and other recyclables that don't go in the dishwasher. I will occasionally fold up the rack for counter space but we leave it expanded most of the time. I appreciate that I *can* fold it up and get it out of the way. I have washed it in the dishwasher a couple times.
We have had it since February 2019 and it has held up well. It felt slightly less sturdy than I was expecting but it's been great even dealing with larger and heavier dishes. I have even placed 9 1/2" glass pie pans on it and it held up. I would generally not recommend very large or very heavy items as the tines are not super sturdy. They will bend if you put something particularly heavy against them.
We have a unique set up with a large lip on a farm style sink which make draining the drying racks difficult. We've propped this up on some large lids to make it level with the sink and for the most part, the water dries. Definitely better than the last one we had. I use a towel under it to catch any water that drips off but even that has been drying reasonably.
Pros:
~Eco friendly
~Dishwasher safe
~Folds up to make counter space
~Has held up well
~Haven't had difficulty with mold from stagnant water
~Simple design that is effective
Cons:
~Hard to clean where the silverware cup fits into the base
~Not great for use with extremely large/heavy items
~No particular place to put the silverware cup when folded up (but we just drape it over the folded rack)
~Seller left a price tag on the box that was less than we paid for it (tacky on the seller's part)
Overall we are happy with our purchase. I would recommend to other buyers.
Pros
- It is very sturdy, i.e., hard to break and well balanced. We’ve loaded up this drying rack with pots, pans, heavy glass, etc. but it’s still going strong without so much as a dent!
- Holds a lot of stuff. Its open design let’s you stack a lot of things, which is always a nice option to have.
- If you only use a drying rack occasionally and prefer to put it away when it’s not in use, the folding feature of this rack might come in really handy. Unfortunately for us, we never get to take advantage of it because we’re always using this!
Cons
- Doesn’t drain very well. The bottom is slanted towards the center where there is a slit that lets water drain to the pan on the bottom. However, I find that the angle isn’t deep enough and water tends to sit around the slit instead of completely draining. In the humid NE summer months, this means a lot of pink slime buildup that needs to be scrubbed off regularly. Which brings me to my next point...
- It’s not the easiest thing to clean. There are many parts that have to come off for a thorough clean, lots of nooks and crannies and corners, etc. I was actually cleaning this just a while ago and that is when I got this urge to come review this product on Amazon (after a year!).
Overall, I think it would prefer a regular drying rack (the wiry kind) just for the ease and less frequent need of cleaning.
