KDM-10BL Kore Self-Draining Silicone Dish Drying Mat or Trivet for Kitchen Counter, Black

Kind of expected that it doesn't quite fit my sink with lips but I elevated the mat with some plastic whiteboards (not sure how sanitary it would be after usage) but for now it is working until I figure another idea. Once the mat is raised over the lip of the sink, and a couple of cheese wedges cut from a cheese like doorstopper to raise the level to place a dish rack, it is good for why I bought it. For years I had to place a string on the bottom of the pan of the dish rack in order to drain but this is theoretically much more effective and less moldy. Let's see how long the idea of this mat will last.

If you’re the type to wash/dry a bunch of dishes at once, this probably isn’t for you. It’s not terribly big, and can hold maybe 3-4 glasses and a bowl or two while washing and drying. But this is perfect for our needs and the size is great for us. Looks great as well compared to the fabric drying mats we used to use in the past. It is slanted slightly to allow water to drain back into the sink, but the reality is that you’ll likely never have enough water accumulate on it to the point the water actually starts running off. It’s more typical that I just pick it up and shake it off into the sink. As mentioned in some other reviews, it does get water spots on it if you let water sit on it. But they are easily wiped off. I’ll maybe once a week just scrub the whole thing with dish soap and then dry it off, and it looks like new. The black isn’t a deep black, especially when sitting on a black counter. More of a really dark grey. Doesn’t blend in quite as well as I’d hoped, but doesn’t look bad either. My biggest gripe initially is that it ships in a box, folded in half. It took a good 1-2 weeks for the crease to flatten out from it being folded, and two of the “fins” are still forever slanted to the side as a result. Should really be shipped flat. Overall, recommended if you tend to wash/dry dishes as you use them throughout the day. If you tend to have a sink full of dishes before you start washing, you might want something larger. UPDATE: Attached a second picture from today (May 4, 2024), six months after use. Just wanted to show how nice this still looks, and to reiterate that yes, it gets water spots, but they are easily wiped off. Maybe once every couple weeks, I spray it with some soap, let it set, then rinse and dry it off with a towel. Looks good as new. Have had others mention how nice it looks and ask where they can get it as well.

Perfect mate to the sink and other accessories.

We have a QVC kitchen will all kinds of stuff. We've had rubber mats with lips for years. They work well for drying glasses and other things, but the water accumulates. Not a big deal to empty it into the sink and dry it, but these drain into the sink. They are washable in the dishwasher. So, we have a combo kitchen of rubber mats. The ones with lips are used away from the sink. These are placed on either side of the sink. With our kitchen remodel, the side of the sink is flat, it doesn't have a lip making this mat useful.
