This rack is so convenient! It allows me to add small items to the top and pots / pans to dry on a mat below. I love the water spout that allows water to drain back in the sink. The hooks on the side help to hang measuring cups so water doesn't sit in them like it does when they lay down (sometimes getting turned over). An the utensil cup keeps items separate and easy to grab to put away! We got it in black to match the hardware in our kitchen!
