Customer Reviews
Cheaper design.DraculinaI recently bought this to replace my previous, 15-year old Rubbermaid dish drainer, which I loved, but which had gotten rusted. This one is not the same design as the previous one. On the original, there was a strip of wire that ran horizontally around the basket, about one inch from the bottom. This strip kept glasses above the edge of the counter. The new design is flimsier and less sanitary, with the edge of the glasses resting on the counter. You also need to be more careful putting the glasses on the prongs on the side, as they could drop against the edge of the counter and crack.
Rubbermaid should be ashamedJayeBI have been buying Rubbermaid dish drainers since I got my first apartment back in the '70s and took their quality for granted. In the last couple of years, Rubbermaid has cheapened this simple product to the degree that it no longer works like it should. The newer drainers are not as heavy, the prongs are not tall enough to hold a larger dinner plate upright (anything over 10" will tip) and their angle is wrong, the oblong flatware caddy is an abomination in all ways mainly by not holding utensils straight up so they can dry with fewer water spots - not to mention knife points getting stuck in the oval slots, and the vinyl coating is inferior.Shame on Rubbermaid for dirty-ing its name by offering such a crappy version of one of its original brand-building products. It's obvious Rubbermaid has no respect for its American consumers and it's too bad that young adults just starting out will not realize that this product is junk. I will not buy another Rubbermaid drainer; I prefer to pay more for something that will perform and last longer.
Great value; grossly exaggerated negative reviewsTiffani HarmonDon't sweat the negative reviews; there is really nothing wrong with this drainer. It could use more storage space for silverware, but aside from that, it's ideal.I've seen a lot of people claim there is a HUGE "hole" that dishes can fall out of. This is retarded. There is a SMALL space, which is blocked by the silverware holder, but no dishes could possibly fall out, through this. As for the silverware holder, itself: it would be nice if there were two, but there is nothing wrong with the one included; it is of average size and normal utensils stand up in it, just fine, so long as you're not trying to jam anything huge, in there.This drainer is well-made, functional, attractive, and VERY reasonably-priced. No, Rubbermaid "doesn't make 'em like they used to," but that's true of virtually any product, from any brand. There are no crazy design flaws, here; just an economical way of holding your dishes as they dry. You could probably find a better dish drainer, but you will not find a better one anywhere NEAR this price.
Practical and spaciousEllen ClancyThe rubbermaid dish drainer in black is big enough to accomodate a large dish rack for a full load of dishes. The price--in comparison with offers from other companies--is great and it looks fine in the kitchen. My only concern is that water doesn't really drain into the sink since the slant/design doesn't force the small accumulations from dripping dishes downward. Therefore, I do have to clean/wipe it regularly. It's a great size, though, and a nice deal for the price.
Small DrainerAprilThis drainer is ok. It is small and fits into our sink, but if you use it outside of the sink the larger utensils such as large spoons, large knives, and wooden spoons fall out of the utensil drainer.
Perfect Dish Drainer For My SinkW. TrohaBelieve it or not, this new Rubbermaid dish drainer replaced the exact type and model that I had for the last 16 years but had worn out over time; so, obviously, it is a very durable kitchen item. Also, this drainer fits perfectly in my sink and has a two utensil drainers where most dish drainers only have one.
mislabeledRobert N. HenrieThis dishrack's dimensions are NOT what the website says. It is 14.1" x 12.6" x 4.5". It is listed as 12.6" x 4.6" x 13.9"
Fits Small SinkBrian DobberpuhlI have a two tub sink, and was looking for a drainer to fit the smaller side. All the small drainers I tried didn't quite fit, my sinks corners are rounded. This drainer didn't quite fit either originally, but unlike the other drainers which were made of wire, I was able to trim the lip of this plastic drainer at the corners, making a perfect fit.
