Norpro 18 by 16-Inch Microfiber Dish Drying Mat, Grey (359G), Pack of 1

I got this microfiber drying mat in the color grey which works very well with the other colors around the sink. It's attractive and very easy to clean. Just the right size for my counter. Works well under a drying rack or can be used alone for dishes, utensils, pots/pans. Very versatile, compatible with any sink type.

I like this drying mat. It’s my second time buying it. Is big enough, absorbent, nice color and texture, dry fast

I love this dish pad. I had to buy a new one because of a water issue at my home and I immediately reordered this same pad. It's washable, a good size, and nice thickness.

This product came in good packaging (a little over the top protection). It was folded and easy to open. It absorb water to itself well and does not leave the kitchen counter underneath it wet. It did not have any smell and I did not see a need to wash it before use. It has a small hook like thing for hanging it and it can be refolded easily to fit into a kitchen cabinet. Unlike microfiber towels this doesn't leave wetness in a glass upside down on it. Of course it takes time, but much less so. Good for the price. Will be purchasing another one to accommodate for all my dishes in one wash.

I am very pleased with this dish mat. I use an in-sink drainer for plates and silverware but needed additional drying space for bowls, pots, knives, glasses, etc. without having to permanently set such space aside. Enter this dish mat. It can be folded up or hung over my oven towel rack when not in use and placed on my counter only as needed. It is highly absorbent. My counter stays dry underneath. Plus items stay wherever they are placed on the mat; they don't slip around. The size is perfect and the color is neutral. I can't think of anything else I could have expected from this item. Even the price is great. Definitely five stars! UPDATE- I have been using this product for a little over a year now. I have machine washed and tumble dried it several times. It still looks as good as new and functions as well also. I find it still has the high absorbency that made me love it in the first place.

This was EXACTLY what we were hoping for. The mat is the perfect size to fit on top of our Suburban three-burner stove when we have the bamboo cover on top of it. It allows us to dry dishes, cookware and silverware from our small sink in the RV. Absorbancy is as good as our larger home drying mat, and it dries itself very quickly after cookware is removed. Easy to use and store, it is a FIVE STAR rating from us and pleased that we purchased it. We would buy again if lost or worn out at some point. Easy, honest, and hearty recommendation!

I have a dual sink, one side for washing, the other side for drying. But most of the time I need more space, and this mat works perfectly. It's very well padded and absorbent. The quality is high, and the color and style fits perfectly in my kitchen. For all the reviewers who say that it started to smell bad, I wonder if you ever wash your bathroom towels. Anything that stays wet a lot is going to smell after a while. The good news is, this will go right into the wash with the kitchen towels and come out clean and crisp. At the price, buy two if you don't want to worry about not having one ready to go. I've had mine a few months now, and it does not have an any bad odor, i'm sure i'll get around to washing it before it is ever a problem.

Simple, efficient, easy to care for, inexpensive......pretty good combination of positive qualities. Though the illustrations show items placed directly on the mat to dry, I find that using it under a dish rack works really well. Most dish racks come with a plastic drip tray, which is often ribbed and one side is higher than the other so water can drain into an adjoining sink. There are problems with this system: the ribs seem to attract dried-on crud, the draining water may partly go into the sink, but some usually finds its way under the drip tray, resulting in a build-up of more crud and slimy stuff. And these trays are hard to clean. With the microfiber drying mat under the dish rack, draining water is captured very efficiently, and every so often (around twice a week) I squeeze and rinse it several times under the tap, wring it out, and hang it outside to dry. If it gets a bit funky, you could, as suggested, machine wash and low dry the mat. An excellent, well-constructed solution for an everyday problem.
