Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have an ancient, basic Rubbermaid dish drainer. I tolerated the growing rust for years because it otherwise works perfectly. My rating for this new version is low because I refuse to grade on a curve. This Evolution model was the best I could find in the way of a large & simple drainer, but it is still unsatisfying. They've spaced the slots for the plates wider, pointlessly so, so you can stand far fewer dishes in it than in the old design. The old Rubbermaid (as well as the cheap, flimsy version they sell today, Rubbermaid Antimicrobial Large Dish Drainer, Black) has loops that extend along the sides that you can put glasses on. Very handy. I misunderstood the picture here, the Evolution's loops are too short to hold anything. Dumb - some evolution. The "loft" you see pictured is a marvel of poor design. The prongs are too wide and spaced too closely to make them useful for much, I can get 2 or 3 glasses on it. Whoopie! Even then, since that loft sticks stiffly straight up, the glasses take valuable space away from inside. Stupid! Didn't it occur to them to angle it outward? The way I'm able to make this system work for me is to add a mat on the side to dry glasses. OXO Good Grips Silicone Drying Mat, Rectangular (BTW, I don't use the utensil holder, to make more space I use a fine mesh external basket Design Ideas Condiment Caddy Mesh Silver) Well, probably you can feel OK about getting this product, at least it is well made, and will meet your needs if you don't have too many dishes. But I can't help thinking about what could have been ..... guess I'm an incurable romantic when it comes to dish drainers.
