Scream if you wanna go faster!
Our dishrack has a habit of collapsing, it needs replacing. Now, clearly, there are about a gagillion different replacements available, but when we were staying at an AirBnB place in the autumn they had one that was brilliant (as far as these things go, obvs). It was a design not unlike a supermarket shopping basket with deepish sides and with a load of spikes in the bottom, and worked a treat.
I'll be buggered if I can find it online though. I can find ones like supermarket shopping basket with deepish sides. I can find ones with a load of spikes in the bottom. I cannot find ones that are both of these things.
Help me STW, you're my only hope.
This?...

We have one like that one up there ^^^ (although it could be a larger size) as the person who designed our kitchen (long before we bought the house) obviously thought draining boards on sinks we're naff. It works well and doesn't wobble of bend much and only overturns if you put a large roasting dish on one side when it's empty. It even dibbles most of the water back into the sink.
Hmm, kinda like that, but does need to be bigger as it's generally used for the big stuff that won't go in the dishwasher.
We've been using the JosephJoseph one that Fuzzy linked to above for the past 4yrs.
Lasting well, holds a lot of pots etc. Needs cleaning itself occasionally and can be partly collapsed and put away if required (we never do).
Can drip out underneath if over extended in length but overall I'd recommend.
Edit: should also say it used to come in different colours as well. Ours is grey plastice/silver rack.
If this doesn't make TOTW, there is no justice!
The JosephJoseph one is nearly there, but it's more like this, a simple basket, but with spikes on the bottom:

Well, I couldn't possibly comment (but you're absolutely right)

(Yes, I am sat waiting for my car to be fixed, browsing dish drainers. FML!)
Well this being STW, surely it has to be the Simple Human dishrack
We had one in an airBnB, it really does allow everything to be dried.
Crap, the one I found on my phone isn't even a drainer. Must try harder.
Simple Human copy?

Sorry, I'll find something else to do

Brabantia for the proper 80s middle class vibe.
I actually just bought one of those Swan ones 😎

So far it's brought me crushing disappointment 🙁
