Till some time ago, I was a lifetime resident of the city apartment. I had every kitchen and, for years, I learned every trick in the book, which was to avail the available small countertop and storage space. I do not yet have a dish drying rack. I hung my utensils and pans. Some small equipment I was worthy of, they were removed from a kitchen car, squeezed into a nook between heat and garbage bin. All shelves had a Pinterest-recommended outfit tool raiser, hooks, or some other forms. Everything was a place – until I had a child.
Friends along with the children warned that their luggage would be found EverywhereFor the first time as a parent, I thoughtfully thought that they meant clothes and toys, so I was fully prepared to pile up in my nursery and even living room. I was required to feed all the objects that I was not ready for: bottles, pump parts, brush to clean those bottles and pump parts, and eventually a complete classification PlatesUtensils, bibs, sippy cups, and food storage trays. He got his dedicated drawer and cabinet location, but mainly sat at the kitchen counter because we used him so many times.
When our child came to get rid of those things that beat our child, we became ruthless. The general advice was to hang on everything (“if you have another!”), But we happily packed hand-to-down bags to friends with young children. There has been an exception to that Oxo bottle rack He is with us from the first day.
Bought after our early stages of baby stuff research, the drying rack earned the title “Space-Saving” in almost every best list and came up with bright reviews Heroic(Currently there are 4.9 stars out of more than 14,500 mice.) I felt that we would get rid of it after the bottle exiting, but it has not happened yet and he is about to enter the kindergarten. Instead, it has become a default drying rack for all our drinking ships.
While now we are one Standalone dish drying rack It comes with cup holders, I still like to use Oxo when it comes to drying our drinking glasses, travel mugWater bottles … you get ideas. For the beginning, it is surprisingly strong to something that is completely made out of plastic. I have entrusted it to keep everything from heavy ceramic mugs to delicate wine glass. It is yet to tip with my huge 35-Oons Bruomete Tumbller,
Anglend pegs not only allow any extra water to get out – apparently, they slant on one Very accurate 48 degrees – But efficient drying is quite small to give air. And unlike the intensity of metal on my dish rack, there is no concern of any scratch (or worse) on the interior. Additionally, there are removable trays on the top and bottom to keep the straws, lids, and any other parts that need to be separated and cleaned.
It is true to its name, the vertical profile of the drying rack is actually space-spent, but nine pegs are more than enough to keep different drinking ships, which pass in a day of my family in three days. It is tall, but not so long that it cannot clean the space under the kitchen cabinet, as well as a flat back in the rack that can sit flush against the wall. The best thing is that this dishwasher is safe – I regularly wash the tray to the machine and even throw the entire rack without any problem.
While it is technically part of the Oxo Tot Collection, the bottle drying rack comes in surprisingly palecular, non-condated color scheme. The white and gray design “baby product” basically fits in most kitchens without shouting and explains why it has caught the attention of so many guests. More than once, a child -free friend has gone to my kitchen in search of a snack or drink, only to stop and tell that they need something like this to dry their growing collection of re -appropriate water bottles. Partner parents definitely laugh and say that they have done the same thing. Because if there is a group that knows that it likes to wash and dry a lot of bottles, then it is the parents – and we have found the right tool to do so.
