My dishwasher broke so I got this to use for a short time, but it has turned out that I have been using it for months and I love it.  The second sled allows me to dry more dishes than a standard drying rack.  There are slots in one side of silverware basket to securely hold knives. The product is strong and sturdy, it holds plated and even a skillet in the top shelf.  Well worth the cost.
