The Best Sink Organizer - 2021

Organizing your kitchen comes with many benefits including less stress, better time management, financial savings and increased efficiency. In addition to making the best use of your cabinet space, you’ll also want to organize the area around and under your sink.

When counter space is limited, you’ll find there are organizer trays that you can buy that attach to the inside of your sink. You’ll want to look for a model that uses a super-strong adhesive so that it doesn’t come loose once the water from the sink splashes up against it. Most of these trays are able to hold dish rags, sponges and scrub brushes.

Another option is to go with a tray that sits to the left or right of your sink and holds both your sponge and your liquid dish soap. These trays come with a built-in drain lip, so that water is able to run back into the sink instead of collecting in the tray. You’ll find these sink organizers typically come in either plastic or silicone. Silicone is a great choice, as it is both heat- and water-resistant.

There are also sink organizers that help you make the most of the area under your sink. They take into account the space you need for plumbing and have extenders that allow you to adjust the organizer to the size of your cabinet. Some models also allow you to move the organizer’s top shelf a little higher or lower, which is nice if you have cleaning products in large bottles that don’t fit on a regular sized shelf.

• Whether your sink organizer is made of stainless steel, plastic or silicone, it can be cleaned with a little dish soap and water and dried with a lint-free towel.
• Sink organizing trays can also be used in your bathroom to hold hand soap, mouthwash and teeth cleaning products.
• Sink organizers make excellent housewarming gifts.
• It is important to replace the kitchen sponges in your organizer once a week and to wash your dish rags every three to four days.
• As you begin to browse the price of sink organizers, you’ll notice models that go in or next to the sink, like the Luxet Sponge Holder Kitchen Sink Organizer Tray and the KINCMAX Sponge Holder & Dish Cloth Hanger, are among the most affordable. You’ll pay a little more for sink organizers that go under the sink, like the Simple Houseware Under Sink Expandable Organizer Rack and the Deco Brothers Under Sink Expandable Shelf Organizer. These models are designed to neatly store your cleaning supplies.
