Cheaper design.
By Consuma
I 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.

Great value; grossly exaggerated negative reviews
By Tiffani Harmon
Don’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 spacious
By Ellen Clancy
The 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.
