I only had 11.5" of space on each side of my sink to put a dish rack, so I was glad to find one that fit my counter space. It also doubles as an in sink rack if I need to utilize the limited counter space. As far as design goes, it's nothing special, but I am hoping that it will suit my purposes. My main concern is that there isn't much room for cups, and I am not sure I will be able to find a drying mat small enough to fit underneath.
