Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Perfect for delicate decanters or slender vases, this drying rack from Cilio is handy, simple, and effective. The durable piece is made from stainless steel with a stable base and a sturdy central pole. To dry vases, decanters, and other narrow-necked items, just invert them and balance them on the rubber foot. Drying glassware this way minimizes water spots, and protects mouth edges that can get nicked in a dish drainer. The piece also comes in handy with plastic bags, which can be propped open around the base. A mirror finish makes the rack sleek and shiny, and the minimalist design allows for a variety of storage solutions. The triangular base is 7 inches in diameter, and the stand is 13 inches high. --Emily Bedard

4.0 out of 5 stars Completely functional, although should have a wider base., July 2, 2004

This review is from: Cilio Stainless Decanter Drying Rack (Kitchen)

I was in a bind. I had a beautiful new wine decanter, but no way to dry it. The decanter would not balance upside down on it's own....so I found this.

I'm happy with it (hence the 4 stars) except for one minor flaw....the base circle is far too small. After placing the decanter on this 'rack' i find i have to carefully adjust the interface so as not to have an out-of-balance assembly.

In other words...it's kind of scary how small the base on this is. I live in earthquake-prone California...and a decanter sitting on this wouldn't survive a 4.0

However, given the other options (and the price)...you can't go wrong. After all, it works!

2.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't hold decanter securely, February 9, 2009

This review is from: Cilio Stainless Decanter Drying Rack (Kitchen)

I'm perplexed by the other reviews, or possibly I just have a bad one but I find the tip on the end of this is very slippery and does not function to hold the decanter securely well at all. I had been using it until the other day when you guessed it, the decanter slipped and cracked up it's side as it went. I cannot recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple but effective design, May 15, 2003

The quality of this gadget is quite good, nice plating on the metal. I tried it with a few decanters and they all sit securely on it, helped by the rubber stopper that keeps the decanter from slipping off. I doubt many people need this, but if you use and clean your decanter a lot, this drying rack is an economical and very effective device.
