OXO Good Grips Large Silicone Drying Mat | Ribbed Design Speeds Drying, Fits Pans and Platters, Cookware, Pots and Pans, Drying Rack, Dish Rack, Dishwasher Safe

Long time OXO fan. I love 🤍 these OXO Good Grips Large Silicone Drying Mat, Large (Gray). We have them in multiple sizes and they work and clean up great, I highly recommend the OXO Silicone Drying Mats. I love the Gray color, it works great in the kitchen works great in a white kitchen with stainless steel appliances, timeless design, well-made, they look cool, they do the job, I highly recommend them! NOTE: But I just ordered a new one in December 2022 Sold and Shipped by Amazon just like the others that I purchased years ago. This new one that I received was brand new in the packaging, put it in a very clean dishwasher with all-natural Seventh Generation Dishwasher Detergent, which I highly recommend by the way! the new OXO Silicone Drying Mat came out totally spotted. I have other ones that are over 5-years old and they look pretty much brand new. I had to call OXO, let them know about the quality of the silicone. Visually looked the same, brand new NIP, but once it was washed just once in the dishwasher, it looks 10-years old now, not sure if there was a Quality Control issue regarding they bad-batch regarding the OXO’s silicone (Made In China), but OXO sent me a brand new one. The new replacement is having the same thing happen as well. OXO wanted me to send them photos which I happily oblige. I am posting the photos of the one I just purchased in Holiday 2022 to let OXO and other customers be aware if they experienced this discoloration/staining on a brand new product. Visually you cannot tell a difference, but there must be a different make up of the silicone utilized or I got a bad batch. If so, make sure you call OXO's Customer Service and make them aware of the issues. I love these OXO Good Grips Silicone Drying Mats in (Gray) don't change a thing. So please don't change the design, it is perfect. I have no need for the hole, it looks weird on the countertop. Would like different shapes and sizes though, because I use them now for unconventional projects. By the way OXO makes one for model for Target that is a more modern circular different design, which I do not like the pattern of. Timeless design never goes out of style!

I love this mat! I bought my first in a store, but when we moved to a home with less counter space, I couldn't find another so I tried a microfiber drying mat. Those have two problems--they can build up mildew if not cared for properly and more importantly, they just weren't helping my dishes dry. The flat surface would practically seal to the rim of my stemware, and I'd find water in the glasses the next morning. The ribbed Oxo mat allows venting that, when glasses are rinsed with hot water, dry fairly quickly. My only concerns with the Oxo mat are: * You do need to regularly wipe underneath the mat and the mat's underside. I have granite countertops, so this is important for both the life of my counter and to reduce microbial build-up. I do this at least every time I put away the dishes. I also use my Granite cleaner weekly in the same spot and let it dry fully before replacing the mat. * Water in the wells usually needs to be shaken out before the mat will dry. * Be careful when placing flutes; make sure to balance them along the ribs. * The mats are a bit small, so you may need more than one. But that also means you get to have them in two different places...which is nice. I use this mat: * Everyday for non-dishwasher pots/pans, knives, crystal stemware, & glasses * To place hot cast iron lids on while cooking * To place very warm pots from stove I use this mat BECAUSE: * It takes less room & commitment than a permanent dish rack * Dries dishes, especially glasses, better than microfiber mats * It is easy to clean * It doubles as a trivet

This review is NOT about using this product as intended. The short answer to that, is that it holds a lot of water and performs as expected. I have used it to drip-dry a couple of wine glasses and it performed well. (as expected) However, I bought this drying mat to multi-task in different areas of the kitchen with different purposes. What I like about this product: Size: good size to protect table/counter top from hot plates/pots. Design: ridges and flat reversible surface for different purposes. Pros and Uses: Using the flat surface: Keeps the bread machine in place, preventing the Breadman from "walking-off" the counter during some vigorous exercise. Cast iron cookware (hot or cold) won't damage brand new granite counter tops. Ridge Surface: Thawing out food on counter: Catches all the melted ice/water. Used as a spoon holder in a pinch, holds all the sauce/gravy. Used regularly to place pressure cooker and pots/pan lids on it. It catches all the hot liquid dripping from the lid and gives me a safe place to put the lid without having to worry about cleaning counters or hot liquid running off the sides onto the cabinets. Used to hold screws and nails in place (no rolling around, easy to find) during kitchen remodel. Also great to keep hammers, drills, screw drivers, etc. It provides a nice cushion and prevents accidental chipping. Cleaning: Easy as pie. A bit of dish soap, rinse, shake and store. Does not discolor no matter what type of sauce you spill on it. *there is a hole on the mat that allows you to store vertically/hang on hook somewhere. Cons: Only one color. Wish it came in different colors. The price is a bit steep. Would like an accurate rating on how many degrees it can handle. Most people will do fine setting pots/pans that have been baking at 375 degrees. However, Using the Alton-Brown method for cooking rib eye steak in cast iron at 500 degrees may be too much. (I simply put the pan back on the stove's iron grates) Wish list if OXO Good Grips is listening about future product development/enhancement: I'd like to see this product with a center-hole to use as a sink protector. I would use the ridge side down to allow water to flow. ** Maybe I will buy two more and cut the hole myself.

After three years of a less-than-happy relationship with the Rubbermaid 1180-MA-RED Antimicrobial Small Drain Board, Red , I finally decided that it was time to move on and get something that was actually working. After reading reviews, I chose the Oxo Drying Mat and I am so glad I did: Finally a level surface for my dishes - the Rubbermaid drain board was tilted and slick and had ridges which made for a precariously unstable surface for most dishes that were placed on it. The Oxo is just what it says it is - a mat. No tilting, and no slickness either. What is put on it, stays put, and so does the mat itself. Due to the Silicone material nothing slides, and the rigid yet flexible grooves are close enough together to where they accommodate all dishes securely - from a teaspoon to a large pitcher with absolutely no wobbling. After putting up with that Rubbermaid design for so long, it is actually a pleasure to put things on this mat. Yes - the Rubbermaid was that annoying... Water draining from wet dishes is securely caught between the grooves and once the dishes are dry, I can just grab the mat and shake it out over the sink. However, it would be nice if the Oxo mat channeled the water out on one of the short sides. It would make it easier to get rid of standing water, and this is the only point that I think could be improved upon. What the Amazon product description mysteriously fails to mention is that this mat is actually dishwasher-safe. Check Oxo's website for confirmation. This is a huge plus in my book and another reason to love this mat. I am happy with it and recommend it to anyone looking for a good drying mat or suffering from the Rubbermaid blues...

I bought this item a few weeks ago because of the rave reviews. I have many OXO products and they have never let me down; this product is no different. I live in a small apartment with a small kitchen and, although we use the dishwasher most of the time, we needed a drying mat for things that could not go in the dishwasher. I never knew that other drying mats harbored bacteria and such and I was getting fed up with using a towel/material drying mats because they never fully dryed! So, I bought this item. This is a great design and I love it so much! The ribbed design is genius- it allows whatever you are drying to sit slightly above the bottom of the mat and allows the water to drip off and air to get in so it will dry fully. Things dry beautifully now and I am very thankful. The mat isn't a bad size, although I could always go for bigger! This is very easy to clean because it is silicone and could easily go in the dishwasher to wash every once in awhile. I read a past review saying that the mat gets "slimy" on the bottom because the water doesn't always dry and they said you had to wipe under the mat every time after you used it to dry something. I haven't had this issue. I just put a plastic tablemat underneath it and haven't had any issues of it being slimy or gross. Depending on how many dishes you do and how often, you do have to shake the excess water off before you dry more dishes because it doesn't always dry completely. I for one don't mind this because it drys my dishes beautifully. Overall, another wonderful product by OXO and I am so impressed. Thanks, OXO!

***UPDATE*** I've owned this now for a few months and am still thrilled with it. It is hands-down leagues better than any fabric mat could ever be. Let me count the ways: 1. Dishes are elevated so air circulates. Dishes dry inside and out. 2. Cleaning is simple. Wipe it with a soapy sponge, rinse and hang it over the sink to dry. 3. You only need one, because it never needs to visit the laundry room. **Original Review*** Oxo seldom disappoints. I already own two of these mats in the narrow version, one for thawing frozen foods and the other for drying the pitcher we use to refill our coffee makers. They're very handy. This one is for dishes. I've tried to find an old-fashioned one that drained into the sink. Forget it, they're just not out there anymore. The one I thought would work has a fatal design flaw and won't work unless it sits almost 2" over the sink edge. So we turn to Oxo. Although this one doesn't drain into the sink, it DOES elevate my dishes well off the mat, allowing plenty of air to circulate so they do in fact dry. Other mats aren't so good at the drying part, taking all day sometimes. Dishes drained on this mat are fully dry within a couple of hours. This is important if someone is home all day, using dishes. After unloading it, I shake it out over the sink to get rid of the water. My counters are black and white granite. This soft gray blends beautifully and is very unobtrusive. Soft and flexible, this would be so easy to roll up and store under the sink.

My husband gave me one of these in my Xmas stocking 4 yrs. ago. I was sceptical - very skeptical - but since I hated having a dish drainer hogging counter space, I tried it. I liked it so much I bought one for my daughter and a spare one for myself. It’s pretty unobtrusive on my counter so it stays there most of the time, but it can be rolled up & stored in a cabinet out of sight. Because it’s pretty easy to clean, I can use it for dishes but also as a spot to dry washed fruit or vegetables. It holds a surprising amount of water & I’ve had no problem with mold on it. This has actually made my kitchen work better.

I bought my first one of these ~8.25 years ago and it became kind of crusty so I put it in the dishwasher and the crust is not coming off so it was time for another one. The new one arrived the other day and it is so nice, I hope to get close to a decade from this second one. All Smiles.

Gente,o tapete é pequeno,embora tenha esse detalhe ruim,ele é funciona. Após lavas a louça e colocar nesse escorredor,a água é acumulada no tapete e a louça se seca. Fácil de limpar e prática pra guardar. Só não dá pra guardar uma louca de uma família de três pessoas. É pequeno/médio. Mas você pode ir colocando com jeitinho os itens um sobre o outro,também. Se você quiser muito esse tapete,vale o investimento. Eu achei ótimo sabe para quê?? Taças e copos!! Excelente. Bom é isso,espero que ajude.

Mat is half the size of the description. Was supposed to be about 80 cm in length. Only about 40 cm.

Great product! Dishes dry well and are protected. Can use underneath hot dishes too when no dishes are drying.

Gives him good traction to strike at bugs for dinner time! Safe food grade silicone is all I would trust for him. Stops him super-manning as he tries to lunge at insects lol. I realize this is not the intended use for this product, but happy to share my experience with the product. It does not slide around at all on the bottom of a slick plastic tub, I am impressed.

Ce dessus évier est aux dimensions idéales et permet de garder le dessus évier sec. Souple et maniable il permet à la vaisselle de ne pas glisser. A recommander.
