Dish Rack & Brush Holder

The rack is made from powder-coated aluminum and anodized aluminum, so it will not rust.

Our Dish Rack is specifically designed to prevent mold growth. The quick-drying properties of our materials significantly reduce the chances of mold forming. With proper care and maintenance, your dish rack will stay mold-free—but in the rare event mold does appear, we’ve got you covered with our warranty.

We recommend contacting your countertop expert to ensure your countertops are properly sealed and ensure they are safe to use with our TPR feet.

Unfortunately, no. The Dorai Dish Rack is designed with unique features that are not compatible with old accessories.

When selecting materials for our products, we strive to find the perfect balance of style and functionality. All while ensuring our materials pass rigorous testing. Learn more about our testing on our testing FAQ. 

Beyond material safety, we love aluminum for the following functionality reasons: 

• Weight: Aluminum is significantly lighter than other metals, making it an excellent choice where weight is a factor. We ship our products and do our best to reduce our packaging size and carbon footprint. We also understand many customers want to move their dish racks around, and with the added weight of diatomaceous earth, using a lighter-weight metal helps provide this accessibility for individuals of all abilities. 
• Formability: Aluminum is highly formable, meaning it can be easily shaped and molded into complex shapes. In designing our dish rack, we wanted to create the most ideal form for all hand-washed dishes and not be limited from a manufacturing standpoint. 
• Corrosion Resistance: Aluminum is highly resistant to corrosion, especially when properly alloyed and protected with coatings, as we’ve done with our rack. This makes it an ideal material for environments exposed to moisture, such as kitchen counters.
• Recyclability: Aluminum is one of the most recyclable materials, making it an environmentally friendly choice. This is a significant factor for Dorai, as we are committed to sustainability.

• Aluminum Rack 

In a bowl, mix equal parts water and white vinegar. Dip a cloth into the mixture and gently wipe any spots on the rack. We recommend a microfiber cloth for the best results.  

• Diomat® Stone Base

To remove stains, wet your stone and gently sand it with the included sandpaper in a well-ventilated area. Learn more about care and cleaning at https://doraihome.com/pages/care-and-cleaning.

Place all accessories on the top rack of your dishwasher to clean.

Please watch our video here to learn how to assemble the Dish Rack.

1. Setting up your Diomat®  Stone Base 

• Slide one Diomat® stone under the main rack and place it on top of the bottom bars. Make sure the curved edge is on the outside of the rack.
• Repeat this step with the second stone. The straight edges of the stones should line up in the middle of the rack.

2. Customizing with Accessories

• Accessories can be clipped onto either end of the dish rack. 
• End 1: Align the top and bottom clips on the back of your utensil holder with the rails on either end of the rack. Push them down until you hear a click. Repeat with the knife holder.
• End 2: Place the cup holder’s connector hooks over the outer frame, then under the first rod on the dish rack base, and click into place.

Choosing between plastic and metal for a dishes drying rack depends on your needs and priorities. 

Metal racks, particularly those made of rust-proof materials like aluminum, are generally more durable and stable. They are ideal for supporting heavier dishes and maintaining long-term use without the risk of breaking or warping. 

Our kitchen Dish Rack features a rust-proof aluminum frame, which makes it robust enough to hold over 30 lbs of dishes, including heavy pots, pans, and cutting boards. It also features plastic components that are BPA/BPS-free, recyclable, and lightweight to add functionality without compromising safety. The combination of rust-proof metal and high-quality plastic is what makes our dishes drying rack both practical and long-lasting.

Yes, a dish drying rack can absolutely be worth the investment. A kitchen dish rack not only helps organize your dishware but also keeps your kitchen clean and dry. By providing a dedicated space for dishes to air dry, it eliminates the need for towels that can harbor bacteria growth. 

Our dishes drying rack takes it a step further with a diatomaceous earth base that rapidly absorbs moisture to prevent mold and mildew. This quick-drying technology keeps your dishes sanitary and your countertops free from water damage.
