Customer Reviews
Easy to install and operate
This drain board came with everything needed for a quick installation. still we were somewhat disappointed the board did not come with an owner's manual that we could ignore, but we were able to install without having to call customer service. Once freed from the box and packing materials, after some trial and error, we just placed it into the position we thought best. We observed absolutely no microbial activity so assume it's doing exactly as advertised. If you have the inclination it might be fun to watch the water make its way from a dish or utensil to the board and then, through the well engineered gravity driven slope process, watch drops of water inexorably make their way to the sink. However, some may be disappointed to observe that some moisture evaporates before actually reaching the sink. I don't know if this might be a design flaw, but it didn't disappoint us too much.
Looks good, but needs better tilting
The main thing that makes this board a 3/5 instead of a 5/5 is actually the most crucial. It is designed to take the drainage from your wet dishes and silverware into the sink. Unfortunately, it has not tilting whatsoever and the lip at one end only serves to keep the water from spilling on the counter instead of directing it into the sink.
A better design would be tilting it even just slightly more, so that the water would trickle into the sink rather than much of it staying on the board. The board is supposed to be antimicrobial in nature, but with standing water on it, I do not see how that is possible. Don't get me wrong here, it is nice and compact and I would rather have it than not. I just would prefer something that did not need to be lifted to drain the water.
Same thing - different color
I liked this because of the Antimicrobial feature and hoped that improvements had been made in the way it drained. Water still accumulates in the the 2 corners and has to be wiped up every time it is used. I'm still looking for a drain board where the water runs to the middle and out into the sink. This is NOT it.
