Boon Travel Drying Rack, Green & White, Multi, B11015A

We have the large Boon Lawn at home and it’s one of my favorite things, so when it came time to visit my mom out-of-state this little set came into play. I wasn’t sure if we’d need to stop at a hotel along the way, so it seemed a necessity.

The set folds up really nicely. When I first got it, I wasn’t sure that the size of it would work out because I was used to the big lawn. It worked fine. I brought 4 bottles and a jug to mix formula in. It handled the 4 bottles and all the parts well and the jug was easily rotated in. If I wasn’t so picky about spreading things out to dry thoroughly, it probably would have handled all of it fine.

The bottle brush and straw brush are really nice and snap into the case securely. I’ll admit the first time I used the brush I didn’t like it, because it is flat. I’m used to using a brush with a sponge on the end, so this took a little getting used to. The butt end of it is very good for cleaning bottle nipples. I didn’t use the straw brush, but I’m sure it will come in handy once we move to sippy cups.

My only disappointment is the lack of a reasonable accessory to take with it. We bought a flower to take, but it didn’t pack well because of its shape, even though it stood up to traveling just fine. I’d have preferred one of the branches, but those seemed likely to break. I’d love to see Boon come up with a travel accessory that is designed for this travel system. That would make it perfect.

Overall, I was really happy to have a portable Boon system to take with me. It’s just so much nicer than trying to use paper towels or some other cobbled-together drying system. It folds well and packs great. I’m so glad they thought of it!

I am traveling abroad and needed something that was good quality. I have the boon patch at home but this travel version is great. It comes in a neat case with all the parts fitting inside. It’s not too big that it takes up huge amounts of space in a changing bag and yet it fits a few bottles. A great buy in my opinion.

Great little drying rack and easy to clean.

This makes traveling with a bottle fed baby so much easier and less stressful. This is in my skiphop leather diaper bag at all times so when I’m out and about I only bring 1 bottle. When my son is done eating I find a bathroom sink to wash it and then I set it on top of there so I can dry the parts with paper towels. I use the drying function of this when I am staying at hotels or friends houses. At hotels I just set this up next to the bathroom sink and let the bottle air dry. Before purchasing this I would set the bottles upside down on a hotel towel and it took forever to dry! This makes it a lot quicker since air can get underneath. If you travel a lot, The bottle brush that’s included will probably need to be replaced after a couple months unless you don’t aggressively scrub your bottles like I do lol

I pump and then bottle feed my baby at work which is what I bought this set for. It’s small which makes sense since it is a travel set but it’s too small for me. The breast pump flanges take up all the grass so I ended up needing to buy a “tree” for the bottles and nipples. All this doesn’t make it very portable. I wish I just bought a regular bottle rack since I can’t move it around anyhow with everything on it. I ended up just keeping the rack on my desk and carrying everything I wash back from the kitchen because I don’t want my pump parts and bottles in common areas. Water pools under the grass and you have to clean the rack regularly because it will get gross. It’s really annoying the clean regularly because I always have something drying on it. Also the travel brush which fits well in the set doesn’t clean well because it doesn’t have all the sides and bristles a regular bottle brush has.

I have wanted the original grass but haven’t boughten it because I didn’t want yet another huge thing left on the counter! Found this and thought this was the perfect solution!! Even if I did leave it on the counter I can close it up and you can’t tell it’s an iconic baby item! Or I can close up and put away in my pantry! Also I can use this for travel when we end up going on vacations. I included a pic of me trying to max it out with just my bottles, I fit 4 full sized avent bottles with lids.
