Joseph Joseph Flip-up Adjustable Draining Board, Dish rack drainer drying mat with drip tray, Grey, 4

This is great as a stand to put the washing up on as the ridges are high and will not leave you items sitting in water. if you can do a bit here and a bit there and leave to air dry you will not need to dry them after a bit of time drying on the side. The plate rack is a little unsteady but this is likely down to the weight of our dinner plates as it tries to push the arms out when you rest a plate in them, We have heavy Denby plates and after 2 stood up in this it will not hold any more and will collapse. Smaller and lighter plates and bowls are perfectly fine.

Really handy lives in a drawer and comes out at Christmas when we have guests and more washing than usual. Well made.

I like this because it’s small and minimal. It forces me to dry the dishes and put them away instead of being lazy and leave them out for ages, so my kitchen is much tidier. it’s easy to clean as the ribs are wide enough to pass a cloth with a finger, I dry it every night in a minute, and it doesn’t get crusty and dirty like the tray in my old one. the texture of the plastic base feels like a non stick pan, so the water slides away as soon as you tip it a little to the side and any lime scale comes off easily. the feet are just a little too low for my sink’s edge, so I had to stick felt pads underneath but now it’s perfect. I would give it 5 stars if the rack were detachable for cleaning, but unfortunately it’s fixed so drying underneath the base is a bit fiddly.

Ideal for our motorhome, space saving

Lasted 3 years and plastic fold up arms broke on bottom axle. Second one to have failed like this, first one lasted 18 months. Not particularly expensive, so not a disaster, but annoying.

Bought on the 22nd of April, so I feel like I’ve had enough time to draw my conclusion. It’s simple and makes washing dishes that much easier. The water does drain off well, it’s sturdy and the plate holder bits are holding up. I know from other reviewers that some people struggle with limescale, I live in North London, so the water is hard, I do get limescale, but it’s nothing that limescale remover can’t remove (the M&S one is the best), I aim to deep clean it every week and it looks like new. You will have to experiment how best to lay glasses/mugs to dry the best, it’s just figuring out what works for you. I use it everyday and it has been great, looks like new and easy to clean. 10/10

Good compact solution for granite or wooden worktops without proper draining surface. Will hold a few dinner plates bowls and cutlery. Drained water directed back into sink but a little water will remain on the drainer surface.

My wife is not a big fan of any sort of draining board or mat. Nor is she keen on my preference for washing things by hand rather than use the dishwasher. I worry that things that won't fit into the dishwasher or are done by hand will sooner or later damage the draining surface that is cut into our worktop next to our inset sink. Enter this draining board from Joseph Joseph which we chose because our daughter bought a set of chopping boards from the same company which she was delighted with. I must say when I fished this out of the box I was a little disappointed as it just wasn't flat. It sat rocking on the draining surface and such a thing irritates more than it should. This being said, in the few days that it has been in situ it has calmed down (and Duncurin too!) as it is now sitting perfectly and the warp or whatever it was that caused it not to sit and seat properly has gone. It is of fairly substantial construction, not too big - so it suits us, the space we have available and I guess the fact that the majority of our pots go in the machine. It does what it is supposed to do and protects the worktop surface and also the grooves that have been milled in said surface. It is easy to clean and keep clean. The grey colour is not very inspiring but I think it just about goes with the rest of the worktop. I also like the way the retaining arms pop up for plates and glasses and things so they don't slide about. Its low profile and understated appearance is more in tune with my wife's preferences. I think if it were up to me I'd select a larger more fully featured one and use it to wash more things by hand - but there we are such is the nature of compromise. All in all then, it isn't going to shoot any lights out. It quietly and unobtrusively gets on with its job and doesn't cost the earth. The fact that it flattened as the days passed has made me more disposed to it hence 4 stars not 3. Happy dishwashing.

After years of draining hand washed items on the counter around the edge of the sink, this Joseph Joseph drainboard is perfect! It is easy to store, the flip up rack increases its' efficiency, it has ample draining space and as a bonus. it is attractive. I am very happy with this drainboard.

Good quality and well packed.

Gute Abtropfschale

Par manque de place je recherchais un petit egouttoir avec possibilités d'y mettre assiettes, couvercles etc.. Il est réglable, peu encombrant et me bac de récupération permet que la vaisselle sèche mieux.

Not as thick as you might expect it to feel though lmao It's definitely a nice drip tray- i suspect that the hinge for the plate holders may eventually wear out, but by the time it does you're probably intending to freshen your kitchen up w a new look anyways.
