KitchenAid Compact Dish Rack Satin Gray — 15 x 13.25 in Slim Draining Rack with Removable Flatware Caddy

The KitchenAid Compact Space Saving Dish Rack is a slim, satin-gray countertop drying solution with a removable flatware caddy and an angled drainboard that funnels water straight into the sink.

If you live in a small apartment, have limited counter space, or prefer a tidy sink area, this compact stainless steel dish rack offers a balanced mix of capacity and footprint. It assembles without tools, resists rust with a satin-coated finish, and uses an angled, removable drainboard to keep counters dry. Soft nonslip feet protect surfaces while the sturdy wire frame holds plates, cups, and cookware securely for faster air-drying.

How much drying space does this compact rack actually provide?

Although designed to take up minimal counter area, the rack is arranged to hold everyday items—plates, bowls, glasses, and a fair amount of flatware—without overcrowding. The vertical wire spacing supports plates and bowls upright while leaving room for cups and small pans on the base.

• Fits standard plates and bowls with vertical slots for upright drying
• Includes a removable flatware caddy with adjustable compartments
• Compact footprint sized for small counters: 15" x 13.25"
• Open wire design promotes airflow to reduce drying time

How does the angled drainboard and self-draining feature work?

The integrated drainboard is angled to channel water directly toward the sink so liquid won’t pool under the rack. It lifts out for quick rinsing and cleaning, making maintenance simple and sanitary.

• Angled panel directs runoff into the sink for a dry countertop
• Removable drainboard detaches for easy cleaning and drying
• Non-skid feet keep the drainboard and rack stable during use

What makes the materials and construction durable?

The rack uses heavy-duty wires with a satin coating that resist rust and wear while maintaining a refined appearance. Sturdy stainless steel panels at stress points add rigidity so the rack holds up to repeated daily loads.

• Satin-coated, rust-resistant wire frame for long-lasting use
• Reinforced stainless steel panels where extra strength is needed
• Soft nonslip feet protect countertops from scratches

Is the flatware caddy practical and easy to handle?

The removable flatware caddy has a built-in handle and segmented compartments so utensils stay separated and easy to grab. It lifts out for immediate unloading into drawers or for hand-washing, and the compartment dividers can be adjusted to fit larger utensils or kitchen tools.

• Built-in handle for one-handed removal and transport
• Adjustable compartments to keep forks, spoons, and tools organized
• Detaches for simple transfer to drawers or cleaning at the sink

Who is this for: Ideal for renters, students, couples, or anyone with limited counter space who wants a reliable, compact drying solution. It’s also a practical second rack for busy kitchens that need an extra drying spot for prep items, glassware, or frequently used utensils. Hand wash only; backed by a KitchenAid Lifetime Limited Warranty for long-term peace of mind.
