Summertime brings out the home improvement and redecorating bug in me. We still have a couple weeks to go till it’s officially summer, but I started to feel it early this year. When I was shopping at Target I saw this Rubbermaid Dish Rack and I knew I had to have it. I was able to save some money when I bought it using Target Cartwheel card holder special offer: 15% off Rubbermaid Deluxe Drainer!
This is what my sink area used to look like.
We’ve had this one for years and it’s an old style that gets discolored and is hard to keep clean.
And this is how my new one looks!
It is definitely a revolutionary dish rack and is the perfect tool for hand-washing expensive cookware, flatware, pots and pans that would risk being ruined if put in the dishwasher. It also looks great!
Here is what it looks like empty.
I’m sure we will never see it like this again because it is so useful. If you look and see it doesn’t have a bottom layer to it which I think is genius and helps to keep it fresh and clean. It’s also really easy to slide it over and clean under it. I also really like the flat part all the way to the right. It’s perfect for bigger pots since there is no upper rail on the side and it can hang over a bit.
We had some afternoon drinks this weekend and I decided to test it out and see how well everything fit in there.
You can see I packed it in and it still looks great on my counter!
There are 6 glasses, a cutting board and a serving pitcher along with some utensils. It is so easy to work everything in and it could hold even more!
If you have a baby at home it would be perfect for bottles. Or maybe you entertain a lot? It holds wine glasses wonderfully!
Here is another close-up. Looks so much better than my old one!
I think Rubbermaid is awesome for making this! I am so sick of the big bulk one I own!
I really like the streamlined design of that. It’s really a ton nicer than the one I’m currently using!
I have one of those and we use it every single day!
That looks like something I could use for my RV and for the dishes I recently purchased that are hand wash only.. On a SN… that VIEW in the kitchen… WOW… Oh my gosh!
I think this is awesome. I was just steeling hubby that this white thing (basic rack) was ugly and unsanitary depite all the washings i give it. I will be looking for this one.
PS. I could not help but ooh and ahhh over that view! That might make my washing a lot bearable =)
Thanks Jenny! The view pretty much sold me on our home! That was one of the things that I like best about the rack. It’s stylish… but also no water sitting on the lower part and getting all gross!
That looks so much sleeker and less crowded! Great makeover!
I really like this one looks really nice, I need to get a new one.
can i just say i love that view from your window.
That is a really nice dish rack! But, honestly, I’m drooling at the light and view from your window!
Nice! Beats my current one that’s for sure. lol
This looks so clean and crisp!
That’s a really neat dish rack. Wish I would have seen this sooner. I just bought a new rack, but it’s not as cool as yours. Also, the view from your kitchen sink is impressive. Wish I had that view when I am stuck behind the sink washing dishes.
I love that dish drain. I think my plastic one needs an upgrade!
I really like the looks of this. Real slick
I love it! I also love your view.
I use my dishwasher for that. I totally hand wash my dishes and then put them in the dishwasher to drain. I really don’t like stuff on the counter top
It looks a lot better with the new one . Looks likeit takes up a lot less space
I love your view and those tall beer glasses! Looks like a great tool for the kitchen.
Okay, the view from your kitchen window is INSANELY awesome! Second, I agree….the kitchen counter looks much nicer with that Rubbermaid dish rack vs the plastic one. We don’t actually use a dish rack. I use those microfiber square pads to lay hand washed dishes on to dry. The only bad thing abou them is that they get dirty and dingy real quick. I bleach the heck out of them too so they wear out fast. I might ought to just switch over to a dish rack.
The Rubbermaid dish rack is a lot prettier than the one I keep hidden under my sink! Such sleek lines!
That dish rack is clean and organized! Definitely makes the kitchen feel sleeker!
This one looks so much sleeker than your old one. Mine is a clunky black one… I need this!
Can we please talk about your view? If that is your window, I am super jealous! We have a black wire dish rack- I do love that it kind of blends into the sink!
I could totally use a dish rack. Right now we just use a towel and it doesn’t look as nice.
We have a dishwasher so don’t use a dish rack. But I remember the days when we did, the design of this looks much more dish friendly.
I like that the sides of this are open instead of enclosed. That would probably make it easier to hold odd size or large items.
That dish rack looks so modern! I like it! And that view from your kitchen! ♥
i hate my dish rack. HATE it. also i have major view envy. we have a beautiful yard but not a view like yours. whoa!
I like that there’s no bottom too. I think… I want to try one!
This dish rack really looks nice. It looks like it was made for the decor of the kitchen instead of something you put in and had to take anything.
Nice dish rack….next shopping trip I am going to check it out at the store. I need a new dish rack – wonder if it fits inside the sink
Love the new look of the dish racks! Way to keep it new Rubbermaid.
We don’t have a dishwasher so there is always a rack on our counter. Not as stylish as this though so I think it’s time to upgrade!
Love your countertop, cabinets, backsplash and all! I’m remodeling my kitchen very soon and hope to copy what you have – nice and light and airy.
I love the way that dishrack is designed. It’s far my flexible and effienct than the one I have now.
We have a stainless steel dish rack and love it. Our old one was like your old one and I was happy to let it go.
I had to go back and look at the dish rack. I’m memorized by the fabulous view from your kitchen sink and your awesome back splash! I guess that says something for the dish rack- it was sleek and not distracting!
What an amazing view!!! But yes I do like the look of your new dishrack too. much better 🙂 But, I can’t get over the view you have lol
I really love the look of that dish rack. It’s very sleek looking!
You have a gorgeous view! I love the look of that rack, I’m going to have to look into getting one of those. I wonder if they have it in red?
I love that. It looks so much nicer than the one I have now, which is like your first one, and mine is such a pain to clean.
It looks so clean. With the dishes on it, you don’t see the rack!
Your Rubbermaid dish rack looks beautiful! It’s amazing how unobtrusive it is – it really blends in well and doesn’t take up a lot of space.
