Choose a dish rack made from stainless steel or another rust-resistant material, and keep standing water to a minimum. Empty and wipe the drip tray down regularly, let the rack dry between uses and follow the maker’s care instructions. A little sink-side maintenance helps keep rust, grime and soggy surprises away.
Doing the dishes can be dull, but the dish rack doesn’t have to be. Since 1977, Peter’s of Kensington has helped Australian households keep the clean-up looking sharp. Explore dish racks and drying racks that tame the trickle, corral the crockery and keep wet plates neatly parked, from compact classics to streamlined space-savers, with plenty of sink-side style.

Why invest in a quality dish rack?
A quality dish drying rack brings extra sparkle to your turn at the sink with smart drainage, faster drying and rust-resistant materials. Air-dry plates and glasses after dinner, drain hand-washed pots and pans, and give delicate pieces a safe place to sit. A dish drainer keeps water moving, dishes organised and the post-dinner pile neatly contained.
Your guide to choosing the right dish rack
Choose your dish rack by available space, setup and the scale of your usual clean-up. A compact benchtop rack with a removable drip tray suits singles, couples and smaller kitchens, while standard sizes cover everyday family duty. Over-the-sink and roll-up designs save precious bench real estate and drain straight into the sink. Larger two-tier racks step up for bigger households, keen entertainers and Christmas-lunch carnage.
Complete your kitchen clean-up kit
Once the sink is sorted, go full Kondo on your kitchen. Explore organisation and storage for cupboards, drawers and benches behaving beautifully, add an apron for sink-side protection, then finish with tea-and-coffee essentials for a post-clean-up cuppa.

What is the best dish rack for a small kitchen?
For a small kitchen, look for an over-the-sink or roll-up dish drying rack. Both make clever use of the sink space, drain water straight where it belongs and free up valuable bench space. Compact benchtop racks are another good option if you prefer a more permanent setup with a removable drip tray.
