First I purchased the standard, but it was too big for my household. I’m in the entertainment business and travel a lot, I cook about 3 times a week when home. I never have tons of dishes, I clean while I’m cooking so I don’t have a sink full of dishes. This dish rack is a great size, it’s sturdy, and made very well. Simple human has great items with excellent quality.
I have bought several dish racks over the years and this by far is the best. I love the wine glass rack so much as most glasses I use regularly have stems. The drainage system is spectacular. Having an older kitchen with some settling this rack ensures my counter top has many more years of life.
Very nice item. My only concern is that the utensil bin is a little off balance with only one “hook.” Would recommend at least two or three to properly secure it to the base . I’ve set it up so the bin is inside the drainer, not hanging off it.
I’ve owned the original dish rack for more than 10 years. Yes I did replace it and nothing changed. Roll forward, WOW who designed this thing? Do they they cook. and reach quickly for a knife on the rack.? Do they wash dishes and the dishes slightly tip back between the steel wires.? Do they wipe a sponge underneath the rack to clean up any residual water???
Try doing any of these with the newly designed rack!!! It’s a piece of crap!!!
