This silverware basket is gray in color and measures 8 inches wide by 11-1/2 inches high by 12 inches deep. The silverware basket is used to hold small utensils such as forks, spoons, and knives during dishwashing. The manufacturer has redesigned this part to be a complete, full basket with a handle and covers. The basket comes apart in two pieces if you prefer to place them along the sides of your dishwasher instead of at the front section of your bottom dish rack. To prolong the life of this part, try to place utensils into the holders carefully instead of dropping them in.

Versatile piece
This piece changes its form. It can be divided into two into a long basket down the side of your dishwasher which my husband says does a better job at cleaning that’s a regular shaped basket. Very versatile and very well made. Will last for years!

No problem
I just followed the instructions and all went well
My old silverware basket was wearing through on the bottom and silverware was sticking through
Replaced with the new basket. However, the part had been replaced, and I do not like the new setup. One basket has been replace with 2 that are hooked together.

My "fix" was to remove both lids and use the lid from the old basket to cover one part of the new basket. It's not very satisfactory, as it is not hinged and had to be removed and tucked in each time!
