Fortunately this dish drainer arrived in good condition and appeared to be as described. Unfortunately, after two weeks, every place where two or more pieces of metal crossed, rust began to appear. The chrome plating is not heavy enough and unless you want a dish drainer with little red/brown dots at every joint, this is not the best choice.

This item is not stainless (SS) and it RUSTS! It rusts bad after a few months. The Chrome eventually wears off and as it does rust spots begin showing and more and more appear until you try to clean them off. Scrubing might make it look a bit better for a day or two but never can you get the rusted areas totally clean looking. And so if they made this in stainless for 4 times the money it would be PERFECT. Instead in Chrome It is PERFECTLY AWFUL.

Right size but stick with the color coated ones in same style and size or look for a stainless version that is identical. Bummer!

This is nice quality and nice looking, but I can assure you it will NOT fit into one half of a double or "twin" sink, unless you have an unusually large sink. I found one of these in Home Depot and carried it over to the sink section -- it fit into ONE out of about 15 of the double sinks I tried it in! (And that model had one side of the sink that was unusually large.) It will fit into the top of many sinks, but since most sinks taper down towards the bottom, you cannot get it in all the way, and you risk scratching your sink if you use it that way regularly.

I ordered this based on the picture and the fact that I had one before. I used a chrome drainer in the sink and it did rust after a few years but I blamed that on the rust from my "all stainless steel" hand can openers. (the screws are not stainless and rust something awful, I have three different kind of "ALL stainless openers") The rack is the new design by Rubbermaid that features an oblong utensil holder that is the pits, everything slides and tips over so it doesn't hold much. Since the holder is in the end the utensils are in the way either way I use the rack. Plus if you remove the holder there is a large hole and everything falls out. The Rubbermaid designer who re-did the old classic should be fired. When I replace this one I'll order one of the coated ones and continue to use my old utensil holder. If I see the old design in a store I may buy it anyway just to get the old design.

Item was what I expected based on description. The picture, when it shows, is very misguiding and will deceive whoever asumes that is buying what is being shown. It is a chromed plated steel wire product without any other plastic coating. It is the right color and size for me, which is what I looked for. I must say it appears it will rust within 6 months, based on some early stains in the weld joints, which means we will need to replace fairly often.

This is a light duty rack, but does the job. Looks nice when new, but the light gauge plate guides and cup holders bend easily. Still, with care, they work. But regardless of how nicely we kept this rack, it is rusting out after only 3.5 years. Wish they made this simple design in stainless.

I am very happy with the quality of this chrome dish drainer. It is nice because it is so easy to keep clean and looking nice compared to the rubber coated ones. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a neat looking drainer.

I was disappointed in the product because the picture on line showed the flatware container to be square shaped--that was not what was shipped to me--it was a narrow rectangle shaped flatware container which is not satisfactory for much flatware.

The drainer itself is high quality but i was dissapointed that a silverware holder was not included.
