I've just been all the way to John Lewis to buy their stainless steel plate drainer which i found online. All good. Expensive (for me) but I have no dish washer, i do a lot of washing up, we are a big family and i wanted a good big one for a change which might last. Not disappointed, bought it.

I thought while i was there i thought i'd pick the/a cutlery caddy/drainer thing to go with it.
Nope.
Assistant didn't even really know what i was even on about !

Got home, been googling. It seems a decent steel cutlery drainer is like the holy grail.

I'm trying to avoid plastic, but each and every metal one online has reviews to say either they rust after a month or the cutlery falls through them, or they're too small for purpose, or all 3 !

I've been at it nearly an hour now, so i thought - no thread is too boring for MN Grin I'll ask !

So - if you've got a decent cutler drainer what have you got and where did you get it. TIA.

Oh here's the JL drainer for anyone interested:

Thank you both of you 😊

The Joseph one - i think i saw that when i was in there. I don't feel i can part with another £25 Blush

The IKEA ones look good! I was only 5 mins up the road from IKEA as well! <face palm> (Milton Keynes) It's a 45 min drive to get there (and DD4 (8) will moan like crazy that we have to drive aaaaallllll that way again just for shopping) but i might pop back next week. Might get the large and the small. Tenner for the pair.

😃
