Can anyone recommend a good dish draining rack please?

Our current one, (chrome) has got a bit rusty. Ideally I'd like one which will be longlasting and doesn't scratch the steel draining board.
It won't be used for "proper" washing up as we use the dishwasher for that, but just for the odd thing that can't be put in there and some of the plastics that come out a little wet.
I thought maybe a white plastic one perhaps, that could go in the dishwasher to keep it clean.
Thanks in advance!

I’ve just bought a new one.

I don’t have a dishwasher, so it’s a necessary part of the washing up process for me.

My old one was a good strong chrome one, but the little round ‘feet’ were also chrome, and I had to stand the rack on a piece of plastic to prevent the feet scratching the draining board. It was also going a bit rusty.

It was difficult to find a suitable replacement, but the one I ended up with is from Tesco, chrome, plastic covered feet, quite a ‘deep’ one, cost £9.

I don’t like it as much as the old one, but like many new purchases, e.g. a new purse, takes time to get used to things.

Oh, thank you, I'll have a look at Tesco. It sounds as though it might be just the job!
