Is the handle so narrow at the bottom so it will fall through the dishwasher rack?

Nope. Stays in nicely, however, dishwashing them has caused some scratches. Hand washing is better & i wish i had headed that warning! Still nice, just scratched up.

No it is not! It is incredibly designed, I have been so happy with this set!

I have no problem sitting them in my dishwasher silverware rack! I love this set and get many compliments on it. The weight is very nice as well.

Hi Donald, I personally have not had this issue. The knives are actually not narrow. If you look at other pictures, it's easier to see. They are basically designed so they can rest on the edge of the plate with the knife blade facing down. Bellasera 4 Piece Steak Knives Set Thanks, Catherine

My dishwasher has a special rack with places for knives--my stand up knives do not fall through; the handle is in such a position that it is opposite the blade. No problems so far.

The bottom is flat but much smaller than the top. I find the sloping sides work with a whisk.

It doesn't seal as tight as a Rubbermaid type conainer, but it is pretty tight. I ran mine through the dishwasher and it came out all discolored and nasty looking, so I do not recommend putting it in the dishwaser!

The holder is 2 3/8th inches deep, so while it could hold a handsoap pump container, I think it is not deep enough for a bottle of dishwashing soap - though it would be wide enough. I have to say that I LOVE this gadget, and in my stainless sink, it holds the following: sponge, two sink strainers a tuffy pad, and two scrubber hand gadgets. VERY quality item that keeps my DW stuff OFF the sink floor and not mildewing. Two thumbs UP! (PS, if you transferred the dishwashing detergent into one of those bathroom handsoap containers, yes, it would fit.

Absolutely NOT...It should be smooth and the basket handle should be sturdy,mine falls off at the handdle and is a real burn danger. Send it back, as I wish I had. It is the poorest design foran appliance I have seen only in electrolux overpriced large appliances. I vote it a piece of junk...

No. As the unit opens out for the basket, the handle comes up. Lowering the handle smoothly closes the basket and it's flat for storage or travel.

To clarify my answer. The handle pulls out to one other length, but is not adjustable in between.

I don't know, the smaller handles slide down but the larger handles stay put. I don't have any thing heavy on it.

If you don't want it to move it would need to be screwed down. There are holes in the legs for that. Screws are not included. Plan for the handle clearance too. Also the stainless steel grate rusts. I don't have a dishwasher. I used mine only twice before I bought an electric one. Made in China.

The handle rotates up and down and pulls out about an inch and a half. If you can mount the baseplate you shouldn't have an issue.

I do not have a dishwasher but would think it too tall for the top rack. The way it is shaped it probably is easier to just wash by hand and with a bottle brush if needed.

It fits the left side (small side) perfectly and is really a nice basket. I use mine everyday as a dish drainer for items that I don't put in my dishwasher.

Yes the handle is part of the rack/stand that you pull out of the cabinet. The garbage can sits on it. It glides right out.

it should be, but you are not restricted to that width as the handles are connected to the faucet under the sink via two short hoses so you can adjust the distance a bit based on the cutouts in your sink. they can be as much as 10in apart if need to.

No! That handle is actually attached by two screws and nuts on the BOTTOM side. It runs down through the entire structure, holding it together. If the screws are removed, the rack crumbles down like a house of cards. Hope this helps. :》

I'll be going to a craft store some and I'm going measure the width and see if I can find the smallest but efficient handle. Wish me luck! Plus double Thanks for answering my question!

Yes, it is also wider at the bottom than at the top to prevent tipping. I have ten knives in it and it never tips when I pull one out. I love this item.
