You would think that a dish rack would be rust resistant, well not this one! I bought this not even 6 months ago (don't remember but I know it hasn't been 6 months) and the handles inside the plastic are completely rusty, it looks awful! I would definitely not recommend it.

I looked high and low for the over the sink dish drainer, and stopped here. Now I have my mother and daughter requesting I order this item for them.
Received this item promptly and packaged with true care and concern that it would arrive safely.
Thank you for your excellent transaction and item.

This review is from: Better Houseware Corp Adjustable Stainless Steel Over the Sink Dish Drainer Rack (Kitchen)

ASIN B0000DDZU2 - Between the loss of counter space and the ick that grows on the mat under countertop drainers, it was time for a change. And some serious disinfectant. So I picked up one of these!

This drainer fits most sinks because it expands. The handle-like bars on the sides slide to fit various widths and have a thin clear plastic covering on them. The plastic covering keep the bars from scratching your sink. One negative to the expanding part is that there's no locking mechanism, which means it can UN-expand unexpectedly. This has resulted in the entire drainer - usually full of dishes - dropping into the sink. It's about a 3" drop, so nothing has broken, but it's a consideration, especially for those with deeper sinks. On the gross-experiment side, I went without washing the drainer for a month, just to see what would grow on it and the answer is... NOTHING! Excellent result! Stainless steel doesn't rust, either, so everything, from the dishes to the drainer to the sink itself, everything is shiny clean.

I will probably buy another drainer one day and the odds are really good that I'd buy this one all over again, unless I find one that has the locking mechanism that this one is lacking.
