It’s hard to get excited about a dish drainer, but…
Okay, it’s hard to get excited about a dish drainer, but… this one is actually the bomb when it comes to having a dish drainer. I know you can go grab a $7 one at the store, but this one is pretty cool. I have to set mine on the counter since my right sink is smaller.
I have quite a few dishes, mugs, knives, etc. that cannot be put into the dishwasher. For the last dozen years I have been playing tetris with my dishes trying to stack them up and hoping they don’t fall. I’ve lost a couple dishes that came crashing down. But check out the pics I posted – this is a double decker, multi functional dish dryer. Every dish either gets hung on a hook or secured in place. I love it. It has several cool features, like the spout that drains water back into your sink. It’s pretty cool (I know I’ve said that a few times). If you’re gonna plunk down $40 for a dish drainer, it better do it all, and then some. I do think it’s worth it. One dish drops and breaks and it pays for itself.

Good quality, not a great design
Review for: Hiviweer Dish Drying Rack,2 Tier Dish Drying Rack for Kitchen Counter,Large Dish Drainer Strainer with Drainboard Set for Sink,Detachable Dish Drainer with Utensils Holder&Cutting Board Holder,Black.
This dish drying rack looks and feels like it is good quality. It appears to have a powder coating, which should resist rusting. The instructions aren’t great. They are a single sheet. It is not hard to assemble, but the instructions almost make it harder. A couple of good picture of it assembled would probably have been as good or better. An example is the upper rack assembly. The instruction sheet step 2 says to “then insert hard”. This lead me to believe it would be hard or snap in place. It just slips in. No need to for the term hard. Step 4 says place E on A and the illustration is not clear. I had to go back to the Amazon description pictures to see what part E was for. After putting it in place it doesn’t sit flush with the side (see picture).
The dish rack looks good, but it’s design is kind of odd, or I’m too picky. You can use it with either long side to the sink by rotating the drain on the drain board, so the water runoff goes into the sink. You can only use it with one short side to the sink unless you remove the drain board and rotate it 180 degrees. Otherwise the drain is too short to reach the sink. The drain board has hooks that snap onto the bottom rack, but it comes installed and there is no indication you can do this. I noticed in the description pictures that they showed the short side that won’t work without rotating the bottom. This is the orientation I ended up using. In this orientation, the silverware holder is at the sink. With the top rack installed it is kind of in the way regardless of how you orient the dish rack. In my configuration, I have to go over or around it to put thing in the bottom rack. Not ideal if you have already put large dishes in the top rack. If I rotate it 180 degrees, the silverware holder is not convent (top rack is in the way). Neither long side to the sink work at all for me. one way you have to reach over the top rack to put anything in the bottom rack. The other way, the silverware holder is almost impossible to reach when the top rack in place. If you wash the dishes strategically (wash the plates last), you can remove the top rack to start, and put in in place when you wash the plates. But you would have to make sure you didn’t put anything too tall under where the top rack goes. Doing dishes shouldn’t take that much thought. You can leave the top rack removed all the time and it all almost works. You don’t have a drain board for the top rack and the plates drip on your counter. Maybe I’ll get used to it, but the top rack makes this much different than a traditional dish rack.

Very Large Metal & Plastic Dish Rack 🍽️
 This dish rack is very large & made of good quality metal with plastic bottom where the excess water will drop down from. When I say it is large, it is big! It is a 2-tier dish rack so you can stack dishes on top & bottom. What I like most about this product is it has like a plastic spout in the middle were most of the water will accumulate to & travel through the spout & you can face the tip of the spout into your sink so the water will manually drip on it’s on mostly! Only somewhat negative thing I can say about this dish rack is the overly large logo they have on the side of the black plastic piece, would’ve been better if there were either no logo or just a very small one, but not a major factor for this product.

A decent drying rack.
I ordered this as my old rack had gotten the old and is ready to be retired. I was impressed with this track, the drainage works very well, and the second level is nice for when I have company and have more dishes than normal to wash. Decent price, definitely recommend.
