dish drainer?

DW wants me to use a dish drainer other than the slotted sink cover. Does anyone have a drainer that fits inside the stainless steel double sinks on modern Mini-Lites?

Camco makes one designed to fit rv sinks but you're going to have to measure to see if it will fit https://www.amazon.com/Camco-Durable...t_feature_diva

I found a similar one at the dollar store for $1, but probably couldn't do that again.

You might consider picking up a cloth dish drying mat also. We find that useful for larger pots and pans that won't fit in the sink.

Try this one. I have it and it does the job, nice thing is it is collapsible to help save space. You can also get it at Walmart.

That manufacturer also has other collapsible products that might be of interest to readers here.

I tried linking directly to their web site but that shows pictures without being able to purchase.

I am wanting a collapsible tea kettle, but I am not real certain about cooking in silicone. I just don't know what kind of toxins are in it, but I have been reheating in plastic for years so I guess it won't kill me. I have the dish pan, colander and microwave cover. I have the laundry basket on my wish list. They do save a lot of room.

I thought you were kidding when you said collapsible tea kettle, but they do make them. This looked like the most collapsible, but not the cheapest.

They make silicone baking pans which take a much higher temperature than boiling water, so it should be safe.

x2 on mdstudey offering

For us the one mdstudey mentioned was the winner. It doesn't sit on the floor of the sink in our old 233S or our new 235S sinks, but the rubber sides sit softly on the top wall edges and works perfectly. If I remember we found it either at TJ Maxx on clearance isle or at a dollar store, we didn't have to pay that much for it.

Not what you asked for.

The DW loves the Oxo collapsible dish rack from Costco or Bed Bath & Beyond, about $40.

Fairly large when open. On top of the counter top. Has a drain that opens to let water out. Folds up and stored under the sink when not used.

She puts a Rubbermaid pan in one sink. Use the soapy water and rinsed water in the toilet. Uses a plastic mat in the other sink. Minimum fill of the gray tank plus soapy water is good in the black tank.

We have this one and love it. It doesn’t fit in the sink but it’s collapses flat and the price is right.

Hi All,
Good evening. Just another day in Paradise and only 43 days til Spring.... I purchased the Camco one and it has worked well in two campers and fits the new 2104S as well. Less than $10.
Have a great day,
F
