Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rubbermaid Antimicrobial Large Dish Drainer, Black

Customer Review: Rubbermaid dish drainer
Summary: 5 Stars

Just what I wanted. Large rubber-covered wire drainer; strong & study; hold glasses well, oversized, lasts forever

Customer Review: Rubbermaid should be ashamed
Summary: 1 Stars

I have been buying Rubbermaid dish drainers since I got my first apartment back in the '70s and took their quality for granted. In the last couple of years, Rubbermaid has cheapened this simple product to the degree that it no longer works like it should. The newer drainers are not as heavy, the prongs are not tall enough to hold a larger dinner plate upright (anything over 10" will tip) and their angle is wrong, the oblong flatware caddy is an abomination in all ways mainly by not holding utensils straight up so they can dry with fewer water spots - not to mention knife points getting stuck in the oval slots, and the vinyl coating is inferior.

Shame on Rubbermaid for dirty-ing its name by offering such a crappy version of one of its original brand-building products. It's obvious Rubbermaid has no respect for its American consumers and it's too bad that young adults just starting out will not realize that this product is junk. I will not buy another Rubbermaid drainer; I prefer to pay more for something that will perform and last longer.

Customer Review: Sufficient
Summary: 3 Stars

Product is sufficient for the use. However, this one is much lighter than the one it replaced.

Customer Review: Very well made
Summary: 4 Stars

I've heard of dish racks that can accumulate mold. This one doesn't have such a problem, either because of its wire design or because it has an antimicrobial coating. Fits a good number of plates and dishes, and even has cup holders for eight cups (if you have bigger mugs, you might not be able to fit eight of them).

I don't understand the design behind the utensils tray though. The holes are fine and nothing falls through (not even thin chopsticks), however it is on a weird swivel. If there isn't a dish right behind it, the utensils tray swivels inward from the weight of the utensils. This makes the utensils stick out and makes it easier for longer items (like chopsticks) to fall out. I always make sure to keep a plate or a large bowl right behind this to keep the utensils tray stabilized at a nearly vertical angle.
