Wine glasses are one of those items best washed by hand. They’re easy enough to wipe clean without leaving smudges or scratches, but drying them safely is another matter.

Leaving wine glasses to air dry can feel a little like playing Jenga, balancing them precariously upside down on countertops or sideboards where one wrong move can send them tumbling and cracking. During busy hosting season, when glasses are constantly being washed and refilled, it can quickly become more than a minor inconvenience when cleaning a kitchen after dinner.

That’s why the Joseph Joseph DrySmart Wine Glass Drying Rack from Amazon is such a gem. Designed to hold delicate glassware securely while it dries, it protects your glasses from knocks and scratches, while its integrated base catches drips to keep surrounding surfaces dry.

If you have taken the time to remove cloudiness from drinking glasses, the last thing you'll want is for them to chip when left to dry. Expensive glassware in particular can be tricky to balance, with weighty bases that ooze quality but make them particularly difficult to stack upside down.

With rubberized grips to cradle the stems of glassware securely without slips or heavy pressure, the Joseph Joseph Glass Drying Rack prevents both clinking and watermarks, so that you can easily clean wine glasses properly without damage.

For our Ecommerce Content Director, Lindsey Davis, it is a no-brainer investment for the busy holiday period. 'My wine glasses fall over so easily when draining; it makes washing dishes a nightmare when the kitchen is already cluttered,' she says. 'The Joseph Joseph glass drying rack looks like the perfect solution. I love that it folds flat between uses, tucking away neatly and making under-the-sink organization simple.'

It's a small yet simple investment, but one that can save a lot of headaches when you're already feeling the pressure.
