Learning Curve The First Years Modular Drying Rack Review

We started with the Munchkin drying rack, but quickly outgrew it once we got more bottles into rotation (along with pacifiers, pump equipment, etc.).

The First Years Modular Drying Rack was a vast improvement, but it only gets 4 stars because it does feel a bit flimsy and the trays don't spin as nicely as I'd hoped. I'd be willing to pay a bit more if it had some ball bearings in it for spinning ease.

One part that we don't use is the drip spout, which is supposed to hang over the edge of the sink so it can drain. The type of sink we have won't allow that - but in addition, we never have THAT much water draining where I can imagine that it would need to drip into the sink. They also say that you can put bottles on the inner part of the rack (not hanging on the hooks) which you can, but then they are hard to get to if you have bottles hanging on the rods. I would also make the top rods the same height as the (taller) bottom rods so that you can put big bottles up there as well.

All that said, it does hold quite a lot of items and I would buy it again (heck, we might end up buying another, as we still have more items than will fit on this rack!).
