For me at least, a bottle drying rack wasn't one of the most fun baby purchases I made and I don't think they're absolutely necessary but I found having one did make life a smidge easier. There are a few newcomers to the market since our last drying rack roundup and I've also included a few longtime favs.
1. Drying Station Deluxe, Prince Lionheart ($15, a compact version is $10)
2. Bottle Drying Rack, OXO ($20, in four colors)
3. Rustic Glass Dryer Rack, Farmhouse Wares ($50, temporarily out of stock)
4. Lawn, Boon Inc ($30, a smaller version, Grass is $18)
5. Splash, Skip Hop ($28, also in white)
Chime in below with a comment if you have a bottle drying rack you love and want to recommend to fellow readers.






Shaw's Original Fir...
I have the Boon Grass one. It's so cute! I don't know if it's as quick in drying or as great with pump parts or bottle pieces etc since there are no dividers etc BUT we are beyond bottles now and I keep it as a drying rack for cups and even non-kiddo items. Just too cute!
I love my lawn rack. Now that the kiddo has outgrown bottles, I'm using it to hold pens and kitchen nick nacks.
I have the First Years Modular Drying Rack. Not aesthetically pleasing but it holds all of her bottles and pump accessories.
I also have the grass rack. It is awesome for bottles, paintbrushes, sippy cup parts, medicine cups, delicate drinkware....I could go on and on. Its one of the best things I bought for the second kid.
The lawn rack is cool but sometimes skinny bottles (Evenflo, Gerber) pop off mine.
This might be stupid question, but do you need one of these if you have a dishwasher?
hello katie - I find that when I put bottles in the dishwasher they are not dry at the end of the cycle (whereas my dishes are always dry) and I end up putting them on the drying rack.
We have the red Splash rack. Love it - also love that it comes apart and can go in the dishwasher itself. Hello Katie, since I pump and bottlefeed, we have so many pump parts and bottle parts laying around...there is no way everything can go in the dishwasher every time it needs to get washed - we handwash about half the time. Also, I'm with vab, nothing dries super well in the dishwasher and it ends up going on the rack anyway!
I'll admit that I just bought a boon lawn rack (though my children have been bottle-less from the get go) and I LOVE it. I hand-wash most dishes and despise glasses that turn upside down and never dry, so now I use the lawn. And I love it. And it's so stinkin' cute on top of it all!
I have two of the grass racks (i didnt know it came in lawn size) and they are a life saver. During the bottle stage, they can fit all of the Dr. Browns bottles and parts and pumping gear. Once older, they are great for sippy cups, teethers, toys, wine glasses, etc. Totally a staple in our home.
