Ikea's SpaceSaving Drying Mat Works Under A Dish Drainer Or On Its Own - Tasting Table

"Dishwashers certainly do a lion's share of modern-day dishwashing, but there are still some items in our kitchen cupboards that have to be hand washed due to their delicate nature. Drying racks and mats are therefore one of those must-have items that keep the cycle of washing and drying your plates a lot less messy. However, they often take up very valuable counter space, which is why we're currently loving Ikea's space-saving RINNIG dish drying mat, priced at $5.99."

"Ikea is full of affordable finds that make kitchen organization easy. If the RINNIG mat is too big for your space, there's an even smaller mat available from the same collection, selling for just $3.99. It's 15 ¾ inches long, 12 ¼ inches wide. It's not foldable, but it does have two different sides - one catches the drippy water, and the other lets it drain directly into the sink."

The RINNIG dish drying mat measures 20 ⅛ inches long and 16 ½ inches wide and folds in half to save counter space for smaller loads. Wide grooves with raised ridges prevent porcelain and glass from sliding and improve air circulation to minimize musty odors. The mat can be used under a dish rack to protect counters or as a standalone surface for wet dishes. A smaller RINNIG mat (15 ¾ by 12 ¼) is available for $3.99 with two sides for catching drips or draining into the sink. The RINNIG collection also includes a compact dish rack in yellow or black for $5.99.
