Save on counter space and mess with this roll-up dish rack — down to $7 during the Amazon Big Spring Sale
If counter space is at a premium or a sopping wet counter after dishes drying in your traditional drying rack drives you nuts, we've got a solution for you. Our editor raves about this dish rack, but it's no ordinary rack. It's slim and sleek and does the job of a traditional drying rack with none of the mess. The Seropy Over the Sink Roll-Up Dish Drying Rack rolls up for easy storage, and rolls out quickly to dry the handwashed dishes right on top of the sink. The talents don't end there, however. You can also use it is as a food strainer, kid-art dryer, trivet, laundry rack and so much more! It even acts as extra counter space for food prep and as a cooling rack for cookies. And now it's just $7 — almost 50% off — during the Amazon Big Spring Sale.
Why is it a good deal?
This minimalist wonder is on sale for $7 for the size I have (17.5" x 11.8") which is the lowest price it's ever been. Other sizes include $15 for a slightly bigger size (17.5" x 15.7") and $27 for the largest size (20.5" x 13.7").
Why do I need this?
The primary use for this roll-up dish rack is to drip-dry dishes. It completes this task without the eyesore of a big clunky rack or the eventual ickiness of a mat.
When I need to reclaim my sink space, I simply roll it to the side. When it needs a cleaning, I pop it in the dishwasher. Several friends have praised my strainer, and I was slow to take the hint. But I finally purchased more as gifts!
Because it's food-safe and heat-resistant, you can use this surface for so many purposes, from thawing to cooling. Plus, Amazon shoppers (myself, included) love the minimalist look. It's sleek unrolled, but disappears in a snap when you want it to.
Oh, and if you're searching for a better way to dry your unmentionables, look no further.
What reviewers say:
I'm not alone in my love for this rack. It's earned 4.6 stars and more than 28,000 five-star ratings.
One five-star fan said: "I hate how dirty and moldy those other drying racks get, so this also solves that problem! The pots dry/drain directly above the sink instead of like other drying bins where the water drips and pools and becomes stale and moldy. Easy to clean. Easy to put away. The perfect solution if you have an island and don’t want to ruin your kitchen aesthetic."
"This dish drying rack is surprisingly sturdy," shared another shopper, who found it has many uses beyond drying dishes. "Made of high-quality stainless steel wire, it can support heavy pots and pans without bending or sagging. Plus, its versatile design makes it perfect for more than just drying dishes. I also use it as a trivet for hot pots and pans or as a rinsing station for fresh produce. It's truly a multipurpose kitchen essential!"
"I love this drying rack!" wrote another happy customer. "It fits perfectly on my sink. I have very limited counter space, and this frees up what little precious space there is. Additionally, I feel it dries the dishes much more quickly! When I don’t need it, it rolls up very neatly, until I need it again. I am very happy with this purchase!"
One savvy shopper added: "I have a laundry room sink that does not have any counter space to drain something wet. This fits right over the sink and does the job I needed."
"Great for drip drying vegetables after rinsing, sturdy and can hold a fair amount of weight," noted one final fan. "But it’s not going to stand up plates or cutting boards the way I had thought. Still feels like a good buy."
So many uses, I tell you! Perhaps you'll discover a new one.
