DISH RACK

A deformable and foldable dish rack system for drying items is disclosed. In one embodiment, a dish rack system includes a deformable dish rack and an underlying portion. The deformable dish rack may be of a flexible material that may be deformed from a first planar shape used when storing the dish rack system to a second non-planar shape that may support and maintain the position of items for drying. An underlying portion may underlie the dish rack and may be of a material that may absorb liquids from drying items positioned on the dish rack. The dish rack, once deformed into a second shape used for drying items, may be connected to the underlying portion such that the connection between the dish rack and the underlying portion maintains the deformation of the dish rack in the second shape.
