Umbra Holster Dish Rack– Molded Plastic Dish Drying Rack with Drainage Spout, Charcoal

After several years of testing several different brands and models of dish drying racks I finally found the perfect one - this is IT! I've tested out the Simple Human Steel Frame and KitchenAid 3-Piece racks in the past and although those experiences ended in disappointment they helped me decide what was really important to me in a dish drying rack. One - size. I needed a countertop dish drying rack that was compact enough to fit on my 1950s countertop. Two - positioning. I wanted a dish drying rack that could be positioned vertically on my countertop. This rack fits the bill. The KitchenAid-3 Piece could only be positioned horizontally and it took up sooo much space. A little tip: the drain spout on this rack appears to be unmovable although it claims to be moveable in the product description. Not sure what's going on there but I can't see clearly how one can move the drain spout. If the drain spout can really be moved you’d have more versatility in the positioning. Three - I wanted as little "steel" in the rack as possible. No matter what other name brands claim, no dish drying rack is ever "rust free". I just don't believe that's possible. At some point you're going to get rust on stainless steel hardware. That's what disappointed me with the Simple Human Steel Frame rack - despite claims that it was rust-free my rack rusted out in less than 2 years. When you spend $80 on a dish drying rack you don't want it to end up in the trash in 1-2 years on account of rust. A majority of this rack is molded plastic - it's sturdy and compact. The only stainless steel that I can see is the railing around the rack. I love it. Four - good drainage/good design. So far I have seen no puddles or stagnating dish water in the drainage pan unlike the KitchenAid 3-Piece rack which never drained properly and required routine cleaning. So far so good. I've only been using this item for a little under a month but it's been a great accessory for my kitchen. For a small, compact drying rack it sure seems to fit a lot of dishware. The silverware container is small but it's the perfect size for my husband and I. If you hand wash a lot of silverware I can see this possibly being an inconvenience. I would definitely buy this dish drying rack again - it’s a keeper!

I was hesitant about the Umbra Holster dish rack based on previous reviews. I’m glad I gave it a chance. It’s fantastic. There’s plenty of space for a sink full of dishes to dry. And there are no issues with it draining. You do not need to tilt it or prop it. The design appears like it may not drain, but It drains fine. Any water that doesn’t make it to the hole in the center where the drain sits air drys...just like the dishes.

I agonized over what dish rack to buy & am VERY happy with my purchase. What I like about it... 1. Size is great - holds a lot, can stack plates/lids, can lean things against the raised "bars" 2. Drain works very well 2. Nice appearance. 4. Movable cutlery cup 5. The extra small container that you can use how you like - I attached in the back & use it for my veggie brush, scraper, sponge, etc.

I like this drying rack a lot. It appears sturdy, has a nice drain system, and the design is very functional for holding various dishes

Love that this is an all in one unit that is easily cleaned. Dishwasher went down & parts are taking forever. I had not purchased a dish rack in years & I am completely satisfied with the design and functionality.

Very happy with this dish drying rack! Durable, stable, easy to organize while washing dishes, fits a ton of stuff. Water tends to collect at the bottom and doesn’t all drain out, but I don’t mind that.

This dish rack is perfect! It has a good drain tray, racks for stemmed glasses and a separate drain board for my knives so they won’t dull and I won’t get cut. I am so happy I found this!

Works great! Has lots of room for dishes etc. Like the add-ons, helps to organize.

De acordo com o esperado, chegou bem antes do prazo, aparenta ter boa qualidade. Sem defeitos aparentes com bom acabamento

I bought this one bc I had a Simple Human dish rack that has been rusted. I was looking to get a stylish rack that won't rust easily. This is what I need and the design is functional.

Great value! Elegant look, like capacity and love knife/sharps tray plus wine glass drying holders (accessories moveable/adjustable).

Wer keine Lust hat sich beim Putzen schwer zu tun, weil er kaum in die ganzen Ecken kommt, sollte sich lieber ein anderes suchen. Sonst eigentlich top.

design Umbra inconfondibile, ottimi materiali e buona funzionalità generale
