This roll-up drainer or drying rack is just what I've always needed. Every now and then you see a kitchen accessory that really is worth getting, and this is one of those. I bought the 17.5" x 15.7" size in gray, and it's perfect for covering one basin of my older standard size (33") stainless steel double sink. The actual basins of my sink measure 16" from front to back, and the 17.5" depth of the drainer fits fine even in front of the raised base of my faucet. See photo. The 15.7" width completely covers one basin of the double sink, resting on the edges. It can also be used to partially cover the basin and is sturdy that way, too, as the gray edges support the drainer. Takes up very little space when stored under my sink and it stands on end when rolled, or it could fit in a drawer. Easy to just wipe dry, roll up, and store. The product info says it's also dishwasher safe but mine hasn't needed that yet.I always use my dishwasher when I can and I don't have a regular dish drainer because of limited storage space. But some items must be hand washed. With this roll-up drainer, no more soggy dish towels used for draining pans or dishes on my counter top! The drainer holds my hand-washed heavy cast iron pans without sagging, and it's also handy when washing vegetables to let them drain thoroughly-- again, no more soggy dish towel taking up counter space. Whoever thought of this deserves a medal, LOL. 6 stars.
