I noticed a lot of other reviews mentioning this rack being "great but small" and it makes me wonder how many bottles they use in a day. My 2 month old daughter eats 7 times a day, and I can fit all 7 bottles on the rack at once, with room to spare. I could probably fit another 3 if I wanted to. I hook the bottles on the side, with only about 5 or 6 "blades" of grass.

This drying rack is awesome, its pretty small, but holds a lot of bottles for it's size. It's much better than other bottle drying racks, because it can hold all pieces upright so you don't have water collecting in any parts, so everything gets completely dry.

Edited July 7-28-10: I added a picture of just how much this rack can actually hold. I would not typically use this many bottles in a day, but I upgraded from short to tall, because my daughter now eats more. Today I needed to wash all 13 bottles at once. They ALL fit.

This is a great drying rack. It comes in two part which makes it easy to throw in the dishwasher if needed. I just wish it was a little bit bigger. Almost $30.00 is outrageous for this though, we bought ours at Target for $14.99.

Doesn't get any better than this when you are looking for a drying rack. I bought several different models with two previews babies, but since I had a third one, I decided that I was tired of having a drying rack that looks like a cheap piece of plastic or even like something out of a hospital. After all, a drying rack has to be seating on your counter for everybody to see, why not having something cool, that actually looks like something appealing? This is great, I love it and I would buy it over again.

I read the reviews for the drying rack and decided to purchase it. For the most part, it is a very simple and effective little drying rack. It's just the "grass" and the base. I loved the concept so much I bought two for all of the bottle feeding (and then drying) that we do. And it meets most of our needs, but not all. The area that I wish that Boon had considered deals with breast pump membranes. Those little things fall into the grass, and then you have to ferret them out later, which isn't a big deal, but it detracts enough from it. If there was a little drying rack for membranes, I would give them 5 stars. That said, it is very aesthetically pleasing, perhaps too cool for my little kitchen, but somehow the drying racks will accept us. And we will accept them.

We tried several different racks for glass bottles before finding this one and this is the ONLY one that worked well with glass bottles. It's designed well and similar in concept to the type of drying rack you use in a laboratory for drying glassware. It drains well, comes apart easily, is safe in the dishwasher (or cleans easily with a quick rinse), fits all shapes and sizes of bottles, nipples, and breast pump parts. I wish it were bigger, but you can always buy two. It easily fits parts for about 8-1o bottles. FYI - we love Amazon, but it's cheaper at Target $[...].

For people who want a nice, clean look this product is great. It doesn't look like an eye sore and blends in with your decor. Also, it is Phthalate, BPA and PVC free. A very big plus!

It's also very stable holding up bottles (even glass bottles). The grass spikes makes it fit every possible thing. From bottles, to breast pump parts, nipples, pacifiers, brushes, etc. But there lies the problem. You have a very small surface area for all those parts. If you just have bottles, then yes, this size would do. But I am guessing people want to keep this as the "baby dish rack" and put all the baby stuff on this rack.

For the price, they could have made it slightly bigger. Hence, my 3 star ratings. Otherwise, it would have been 5. Buying 2 of these is just expensive for what this is. They could have expanding this by just increasing it to 1.5 times bigger which I think would be a reasonable size (for one baby).

Throw all of your dry racks away, this one tops them all. Everything sticks straight up and is very organized. Looks great on your counter!
Pros: Cute, functional, dishwasher safe
Con: Smaller than I would like, a bit pricey (but I think it is worth every penny)

We have been using a spinning bottle rack and a dish towel or two to dry bottles & parts for the past 5 months. The spinning rack was always full so we oveflowed everything onto dish towels to dry. I was tired of the dishtowels which inevitably would catch crumbs from around the kitchen.

We just got a Boon Grass countertop rack last week and it's awesome! It's great for the Dr. Brown's bottles and also great for odd-shaped or small items like spoons, baby gum brush, boon spoon, etc. It is a little small, so we ended up going and getting a 2nd grass drying rack. Definitely easy to use, easy to clean and allows the bottles and parts to dry without a mess.

I already have one of the tower drying racks, and I was looking for a second one that wouldn't take up too much counter space, but still hold a lot of items. This drying rack fits the bill perfectly. Another reviewer left a picture of how much it can hold, and based on that picture I decided to buy this. I have not been disappointed. Yes it is small, but if you use it strategically, you can fit a TON on there. I stick bottles all around the edge using a few blades of "grass," and bottle caps I stick sideways in the grass. This takes up a lot less of the surface area than if you just lay them flat, and they still dry fine. I am happy with this purchase.

Best bottle drying rack ever. I bought a second one, and I probably will not throw it away after we grow out of bottles. Very practical. Nothing falls over.
