LOCAUPIN Foldable Metal Dish Rack review

Three levels plus dedicated slots for a chopping board, knives, and chopsticks, and it still folds down. The rack that handles the awkward items everything else leaves on the counter.

What does it hold that others do not?

Most dish racks handle plates and cups and abandon everything else. This one has a chopping board slot, a knife holder, and a chopstick cup built into the frame, which covers exactly the items that otherwise end up lying wet on the counter. The board slot is the useful one: standing a board on edge dries both faces, while a board left flat stays damp underneath and eventually goes mouldy. Three levels stack plates, cups, and bowls vertically, so a family load fits into a single counter footprint.

How well is it made?

Carbon steel under a black painted finish, with a removable drainboard. It carries more than any other rack here and still folds down, which is a genuinely unusual combination since folding frames normally mean giving up capacity. The costs are honest ones. Three stacked tiers make it tall, tall enough to foul a low wall cabinet or a window sill, so measure the clearance first. And painted carbon steel rusts from any chip, with the fold joints being where chipping starts.

Is it sulit?

Around ₱1,300 as of August 3, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. That is mid-range money for the most storage in this roundup, and the 4.9 rating over 814 ratings is the kind of sample that means something. LOCAUPIN sells through its own Shopee store with a long housewares record. The value case is strong if you will actually use the board and knife slots; if you only ever dry plates, a simpler rack costs less and rusts in fewer places.

Who should buy it

Buy this if your counter collects a chopping board, knives, and chopsticks after every meal along with the dishes, and you have vertical clearance for three tiers. If your cabinet hangs low over the counter, choose a two-tier rack.
