We just got one of these a couple weeks ago, my mom and I got to crack up over this, thank you. Who knows how many more laughs I’ll be able to share with her before death comes knocking.
Looks neat and space efficient, but I have questions about why someone keeps fruit next to the dishes.
i would’ve loved this as a kid but i had a Bad Childhood
I’ve showed my mother things like this once and she was very not at all excited at the idea of one in our kitchen.
I was watching cat videos and ended up pausing so I could admire the nice stairs this person had.
Cute cat too but them stairs! Dang!
(Then I realized I am old and sad lol)
Actually this is an abomination and I hate it
A side rack with drainage into the sink is ideal for handwashing dishes, anything more or less complicated than that is going to be endless headaches. This thing looks unstable as fuck.
Imagine pumping soap from the dispenser while the top rack has several plates and pots and pans (and fruit??) on it.
I have never needed a drying rack in my life. On the very rare occasion I can’t just dry something and put it away, I leave it sitting on a towel to dry. When I am done I wash the towel and the counter again becomes empty. I am not kidding when I say I am an empty counter extremist.
Controversial! I admire your gumption
I hate it too. My SO bought one and its not a great product. It’s hard to wash anything larger than a small pan, it leaks water everywhere, and makes cleaning the please difficult. It also looks horrible in our apartment kitchen.
I’m old, and I actually hate this…
How awkward it must be to try to remove the knives. And why is the fruit in the top right? The cutting boards are going to leak all over the counter after you wash them.
Also, I have a dishwasher… So this is just a great way to block the window in front of most sinks for no good reason.
This looks like to make cleaning large pans or baking sheets unnecessarily difficult.
I’m old enough to say it’s pretty. No silverware. No utility/paring knives. Too many bowls, not enough plates. Most of my utensils can’t hang. no glasses/cups, need at least 3 cutting boards.
Great taste, marginal execution.
The knife holder forces you to pull the knives up which simply is impossible with that shelf above
The knife holder straddles the back post. The draining baskets are only forward of the back post.
It doesn’t look like it could hold more than a 7" knife, but you’d likely be able to lift it out behind the basket.
Again, nothing i’d want to buy, but for an organized look, it’s looks organized.
Damn everyone hates this. I liked mine, but to each their own
I don’t like the execution, but it’s good in concept
How do you get the knives in and out of that thing?
With AI, of course!
More importantly, why is the drain on the side of the sink? How do to you get the water out of that thing?
it ‘might’ actually exist
It’s sad this is real, it’s awful in design… Someone in the thread claimed to have one, and admitted the knives were frustrating to store and remove.
That’s likely just the overflow drain?
And then you get to a point where you look at that and think “clever but I’m sure it’s fucked up in some way that isn’t immediately obvious.”
The immediately obvious way is that you don’t need a fucking scaffolding around your sink for any of this. Put the knives on magnets like a normal person. Dry your dishes and put them away like an adult, you aren’t in college anymore, have some fucking dignity. Put the fruit literally anywhere else. That leaves the soap, which can just sit on the fucking counter. It’s not going to damage anything in an earthquake. It doesn’t need to be caged.
Counters should be flat, clean and empty of single purpose appliances or extraneous errata. This is the recipe for positive mental health.
I can’t figure out how you’d actually get a knife in those slots with the ledge above it.
I have this drying rack, and… I LOVE it!
But the knife holder is the biggest problem. All the bits are modular so you can set it up with the knife holder not having something right above it, but my favorite knife is too long to sit in the knife holder without stabbing the countertop. I solved the problem by getting one of those magnetic knife holders and mounting it to the side of the rack.
Also, when people who come over to my place for dinner or hanging out, about half of them make a comment about how awesome the drying rack is.
(I’m 47 and I got this rack about 5 years ago)

Currently unavailable on amazon, but this is where I bought it:
All this crap in my way and too much clutter. Yuck. Also, anything over a sink is likely to get splashed. This is creating more cleaning work, and for what?
And who dries dishes like this? Are they not already clean and dry out of the dishwasher? Hand washing is very wasteful and time consuming.
Not everyone owns a dishwasher.
Not everything fits our should go in a dishwasher either.
That would cause me so much claustrophobia at the sink i would stop washing dishes.
Thats a pathetic little kitchen faucet. Real grownups use professional multi-spray kitchen faucets with removable head and swivel action…
Depends how rich you are. Most of rent…
I just bought my first home and immediately decided my first upgrade was to a faucet like this…
I think I need a new username haha
Oh yeah baby that’s it
🍆
I considered this, but was forbidden: The limescale would leave it looking manky.
The trick is to wipe it down with a wet soft wipe regularly, you dont even need chemicals.
Even if you don’t you don’t need chemicals. Just some water and citric acid.
True, but even citric acid can hurt chrome coating long term. 1/10 citric acid/water ratio is recommended.

I need something like this for my pots and pans because keeping them in the cupboards is too chaotic.
