KitchenAid Compact Space Saving, Dish Rack with Removable Flatware Caddy and Angled Self Draining Drainboard, Satin Gray, 15-Inch-by-13.25-Inch

I love this dish rack. While it was a bit pricey, it was what I was looking for in terms of size, functionality and durability. The rack itself is made of a satin coated metal that feels sturdy and hopefully resists rust (time will tell). It provides good organization with a large area for pots and pans, separators for dishes, a large utensil holder with removable inserts to hold longer pieces in place so they don’t fall out (like knives). The tilted tray sits under the entire rack, over each corner of the rack’s ’feet’, and extends under the utensil holder, so water drips onto it and drains into the sink over a wide lip. The tray easily slides out for a quick wipe with a sponge or cloth. I wasn’t interested in those that collects water into a reservoir that flows through a spout, can’t imagine how to clean that when it’s full of hard water deposits. The best part of this rack is the location of cup holders which are on the side where water can drip directly into the sink, rather than on the other sides where it would drip on the counter. This is a well thought out design and perfect for my needs, highly recommended.

This is by far the best dish rack out there. Holds everything from plates to glasses, cups, bowls even large ones to pots and pans. No assembly required. Looks great on counter top. Water drains well, no spouts to hold water. Its perfect. Pricey but worth it.

I needed a replacement for my folding bamboo dish rack, which worked well for a few years, and the dish mat under the rack gave extra drying space as well as absorbing drips from above. Unfortunately the bamboo rack and utensil cup began to get moldy. We are a 2-retiree household, scratch cooking 2+ meals/day, no dishwasher, tiny kitchen, occasionally entertaining with dinners for 6. This KitchenAid rack looked promising because of its large size, but I hesitated at first because of the orientation of the drainboard. My specific space would not allow positioning this rack so it would drain into the sink. Once I realized I could just use the rack without the drainboard, I ordered it right away and couldn’t wait to set it up. The dish rack sits perfectly on top of my existing mat, which is 18”x24”. I’ll need to get used to the interior organization, but so far, the cutlery holder seems fine if a bit shallow, and I’ve had no problem standing plates upright as some reviews have complained about. I’ve kept the drainboard since it may come in handy for prep at the other side of the sink, and is easy enough to store behind my paper towels. If you are searching for a large, attractive dish rack, have enough space, and don’t need or want the drainboard, don't hesitate, this will be perfect. Fingers crossed that it stays rust-resistant for a long time!

First the positives: The KitchenAid full-size dish rack is sturdy and high capacity. It has a utensil holder that holds a lot of silverware. The drain pan is easy to remove and rinse off. Now the negatives: the four legs curve upwards, by design, so as to hold the drain pan in position. Unfortunately, one of the legs was not bent inwards (as it should have been), and was therefore not properly supporting the drain pan. Another one of the legs was positioned correctly but was curved upwards slightly more than it should have been and this did not facilitate proper drainage of water from the pan. Given that this is a high-end dish rack, I would have expected better quality control from KitchenAid. This dish rack, like the majority on the market, have the plates facing forwards rather than towards the sink. This design decision in combination with the goal of being able to put the rack on either the left or right side of the sink, led KitchenAid to make the plate supports perfectly vertical and not as tall as the supports on old-style dish racks that have the plates facing towards the sink. While this works for most plates, the plates are very close to being perfectly vertical, which makes it easier for them to tip forwards. And if you happen to own plates whose outer edges curve a bit, you could find that your plates tip forward no matter what you do. I view the shorter, perfectly vertical plate supports as a design compromise that could have been avoided with some more creative (outside-the-box) thinking. I ended up returning this rack and getting the Farberware full-size dishrack that uses the traditional layout (plates facing the sink), and costs half the price of the KitchenAid rack.

Great dish rack. A little bit bigger than my previous one, but I don’t really notice it now. I like that the drip tray is removable and makes it easy to clean. Seems sturdy and that it will last a long time. Fits a lot of dishes. Overall happy with the dish rack.

I really debated on buying this item due to the cost. After spending considerable time calculating how much I've spent on plastic dish racks and how many I've thrown out plus reading many reviews, I decided to go for it. I'm so glad I did. It is one of the best items I have ever purchased on Amazon! The size is great for cutting boards, pots and pans and other larger items; there are slots for my knives to drain points down, the drain board slants perfectly to empty excess water into my sink and it is attractive on our kitchen counter! I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Perfect for my needs. Was looking for a good dish rack for a long time. Good size and logical design. Solidly constructed. Looks good. Drains water well. Easy to clean. The wire configuration also works for placing different size dishes, lids, etc. I figured out I could switch the two little utensil trays so they won't come out as easily (you have to squeeze them in but they will fit).

I actually had this in my price watcher while it was still at sixty dollars. Unfortunately, it went up in price right as I needed it. It was one of the better drain racks so ordered it anyway. It comes in 5 pieces which are easy to assemble. After using it for a few days, it's obviously good quality and has plenty of space for regular dishes, but it has it's drawbacks. The two silverware bins are removeable and constantly come out when removing silverware and have to be popped back in. These really should have a better method of keeping them secure in the tray. The plastic drain board could also be a little longer. If you slide it all the way in, it does not adequately cover the cup/glass hanger and these drip water onto the counter. You have to pull the drain board out just enough to cover any drips while still covering the dish rack. Next, the silverware compartment hangs on the outside of the rack and therefore is not covered by the drain board. The compartment has a sealed bottom so water does not drip on the counter, but this means that water can pool in the bottom of the compartment. They should have made the compartment porous and extended the drain board to cover this. So, I deducted one star for the high price, and one for the design issues.

Roomy, easy to clean. Pleased with purchase.

I have a fairly small kitchen counter, but the KitchenAid Full Size Dish Rack fits it well. The rack accommodates plates, dishes, and even pots and pans. It has enough hooks for up to 4 or 5 glasses or cups. At the back of the rack, there are compartments for cutlery - even large cooking spoons and forks. The rack's tray is designed to be placed in the rack at an angle so that water runs off into the sink. It's such a solid and well-designed dish rack! I'm able to store many more dishes and pots on this rack than on any rack I've had before. The rack's tray is easy to remove and clean. Because the tray is fitted at an angle so the water runs off into the sink, I no longer have to deal with a constantly wet kitchen counter. This is the best kitchen dish I've ever owned.

Necesitaba escurridor para las copas y los vasos y calidad es buena. Único "pero" detrás de escurridor hay soporte para copa y debe mover o alargar 20 cm para los restos de agua no caerán. Observas la foto

Great dish rack, holds dishes upright, as a dish rack should, rubber mat disengages for easy cleaning. Beautiful, modernist design.

I have bought two of these. Ex-wife took the first one. There's nothing better, thus needed to be replaced. The bamboo sharp knife holder is brilliant! I've tried a couple of other dish racks and ended up buying this one as the knife holder is so stable. I would buy it a third time.
