The Durbl bamboo drying rack is designed to make your everyday routine easier—whether you’re air-drying dishes or organizing freshly washed cups and utensils. Made from eco-friendly bamboo, it's durable, lightweight, and beautifully simple.

To keep your rack in top shape, regular care is essential. Here’s how to use and clean your bamboo drying rack properly.

How to Use Your Bamboo Drying Rack

1.        Set It Up on a Flat Surface
Unfold the rack and ensure it stands securely. Place it on a dry, even surface like your kitchen counter or sink area.

2.        Arrange Items Evenly
Spread dishes, bowls, or cups evenly across the slots. Avoid overloading the rack to maintain balance and airflow.

3.        Avoid Standing Water
Bamboo is naturally resistant to moisture but should not sit in water for long. Always keep the bottom dry and use in a well-ventilated space.

How to Clean Your Bamboo Drying Rack

Cleaning your drying rack doesn’t take long—but it makes a big difference in appearance and hygiene. Here’s the recommended cleaning method:

Step 1: Wipe Away Debris

Use a dry cloth or soft brush to remove crumbs, food particles, or dust from the surface.

Step 2: Wash with Mild Soap

Mix warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap. Dampen a soft sponge or cloth and gently clean all surfaces of the rack. Avoid soaking the bamboo.

Step 3: Rinse Lightly

Use a clean damp cloth to remove any soap residue.

Step 4: Dry Completely

Pat dry with a towel, then let the rack air-dry in a well-ventilated area. If possible, place it under indirect sunlight to ensure all moisture evaporates.

Maintenance Tips

  • Do not soak the rack or use a dishwasher—bamboo is best cleaned by hand.
  • Oil it occasionally using food-safe mineral oil to preserve its natural finish.
  • Store in a dry place when not in use to extend its lifespan.
