Beautifully designed.
Very happy with the rack—built like a tank, in a black matte, and just simply works.

No good for square dishes
Great design but square shaped dishes will not stand up in this rack.

Quality and functional
This thing is the best solution for hand-drying dishes! Zero regrets. It only works one way on the counter bc of the way it drains which isn't the best way for our small kitchen but I'm getting over it bc of how much it holds and stays quite clean but is also very cleanable.

Good but some suggestions
There is a lot to like about the design. But I feel there is room for improvement, in a couple of areas. Item 1. It is very helpful that the "well" for cups and glasses has a rim around it. But if the well was not quite so deep, it would be easier to place coffee cups so there handles were arranged pointing out. In one picture I put something in the well area that raises the bottom surface, to show what I mean. Item 2. My plates don't quite fit. They have raised rims. If the plate holder section was a little wider, they could easily drop in vertically. See picture of another rack product, holding my plates. Item 3. The utensil holder is great, good dividers, sits securely in the the rack.

Looks great and very practical
I love that you don't see any water marks on this rack, it's beautiful and practical.Though you should be careful with how you arrange the dishes as they may fall to the left or right side (depending on how you place them), so it requires some caution.I wouldn't place it anywhere within easy reach of kids.

Great small Dish Drying Rack
This is the perfect sized dish drying rack for what I needed. It fits my silverware and plates and is small enough to be stored in the cabinet below for times I don't need to dry anything. I like that the water gets caught at the base and can easily be emptied. I would recommend for people who don't have a ton of dishes to dry at once.

Excellent quality
Love the low profile and lighter gray color (it is perfect!) that blends into my counter top. The sleek rack looks good and works great for several culinary items I don't put in my dishwasher. It is strong enough to keep an oversized baking tray perfectly upright. When I empty the rack I can either leave it on the counter or store it (dried) under the sink easily. Believe me, I looked high and low for this drain board and am very happy with it!

Quality at a price!
This compact dishrack is the perfect color, size & style for my space. Had issues with delivery which took a l-o-n-g time. When it arrived the first time, I was out of town. The last DHL worker I spoke with was the most helpful. She tracked down my package which was on its way back to the warehouse & had it rerouted back to me. Many, many thanks to her! I believe she was from Hawaii.

Brabantia need to redesign this
The drying rack looks great, spacious enough for our needs. However the rack is not designed to hold dinner plates, you need to insert a small plate at the end of the rack to hold the plates up. The wire rack itself needs to be higher and the whole unit has to be deeper. Just a tad too narrow. Does not feel we got value for the money paid. We did not return the item as we had washed it to use and in this uncertain period of the pandemic, does not feel it is worth the risk of venturing out to return it to an appropriate agent.

Perfect for minimalist kitchen!
I love this plate rack! I wanted a clean, minimalist look for our new kitchen and didn’t really want a drying rack at all. I tried for a bit without one but found it irritating so started looking for something low level and simple looking. I found this one and the reviews were mixed, but I thought I’d give it a go and it’s amazing! Yes, it comes with a pretty hefty price tag, but it’s so worth it in my view. Despite its low height l, it safely holds plates of all sizes. We have some huge dinner plates that don’t fit into the dishwasher well (hence we don’t use them every day) and it held nine of them very securely and still had space for more. Very pleased with this purchase.

Well designed and functional
The media could not be loaded. We bought this when we redid our kitchen, so that we didn't need to put in a draining board, and keep more worktop space. Therefore we put this away in a cupboard after we've dried the washing up. We've been using it for about 3 weeks now.It seems to be perfectly sturdy, both the aluminium frame and the plastic base. Because the lip projects lower than the base I worry it might snap off in the future as we move it around and maybe bash it against things but it's fine right now and that may be an unfounded worry.Perhaps most importantly, the slope on it and the lip are well designed. Our sink is slightly overmounted, so the lip is about 2-3mm above the level of the worktop. It still drains absolutely fine and keeps the wet off of our oak worktops really well. Also because the slope is sufficient it means that the water doesn't pool on the base and get manky.It seems to be pretty stylish too. It looks modern but not over the top. Our kitchen is relatively traditional and it looks perfectly in keeping.I think one improvement could be to put some (perhaps removable) feet into it to help it get over the lip of overmounted sinks.

looks good, but that is about it
I found this item to be 'style over substance! id say its relatively poor value for the price), flimsy materials (not suited for the use they have been put to) and poor manufacturing methods. The item looks very nice and pleasing until you actually use it. The thin tubular aluminium on the one I purchased now has bent sections when a mid=heavy weighted saucepan was placed on it, and I can see the aluminium tubing breaking off sometime soon. the whole aluminum structure is flimsy, thin and lightweight with no real integral strength - bits appear to be lightly 'riveted' together. Furthermore the uprights tubular sections are too low, so any thing tall and of decent weight is going to fall over - all too shallow. i suggest the ethos behind it is style over substance - not made to last in the real world (unless you use it to add just a few cups and side plates to dry), and will need to be discarded relatively soon for a replacement to be purchased. They certainly don't make things like they use to - and a very big pity and shame that is. given it 2 stars as it is good to look at

Design classic.
Very pleased with this purchase. My old wire rack draining board used to get so dirty and rusty. This Brabantia one is a design classic. So stylish and easy to clean. Personally i think this has transformed my kitchen. Even those who rely on a dishwasher might find this tray helpful when all you need to do is wash a few mugs and plates and let these dry. Sometimes after a particularly large load of plates, i have to dry them and put the plates away to make room for the remaining plates as the rack is not really suited for a very large load of crockery/plates/pots/pans. However i overcame this problem by simply splitting the washing/drying into 2. I wash dry 1/2 the load, then wash dry the remainer. Highly recommended.
