This Tether Holds Your Wine Glasses Upright In The Dishwasher

The worst part about drinking wine at home is getting your wine glasses to be properly cleaned in the dishwasher. It's damn near impossible to keep the wine glasses sitting upright so they don't tip over, otherwise they're pretty much laying on their side the entire time the dishwasher is running, thus not getting cleaned. Plus if they tip over mid wash, it could damage the glass. This dishwasher wine glass tether attaches to your wine glass's stem to keep the wine glass from tipping over through the dishwasher's washing cycle. Simply snap the tether to your wine glasses stem, and then jam the other end of the tether, which is hollow, into one of the prongs that stick up on your dishwasher's rack.

Made by Quirky, a social inventing website, the wine glass dishwasher tether is one of many unique kitchen gift ideas that Quirky has made in the past, including the Modular Spatula Handle that uses multiple spatula types with one handle, the Pixel Waffle Maker that lets you make your own waffle design, and the Nibble Cake Pan that lets you create a mini version of a cake to taste it without having to slice into the real cake.

The wine glass tether is flexible so you can bend it into shape to fit any sized wine glass as well as oddly shaped dishwasher racks. The tether comes only in purple, comes in a pack of 4 tethers, and each tether measures 6.75 inches long. Not only can the tether be used to hold up wine glasses, but they can really be used for any stemmed glassware that you might need to put into the dishwasher.
