Product Overview

Here’s a straightforward solution to one of the most common problems in any busy bar or restaurant: protecting your glassware.

Specifically designed for venues that deal with high volumes of pint glasses—think bustling pubs, lively event bars, and  busy restaurants—this basket is the perfect fit for standard 350mm commercial glasswashers.

Expert Review and  Insights

The Vogue CD242 is a classic for a reason. It’s a simple, unpretentious piece of kit that does its job exceptionally well. For any pub or bar owner, reducing glass breakage is a constant battle, and  this basket's high-sided, coated design is one of the most effective and  affordable bits of armour you can buy. It's a prime example of getting the fundamentals right.

Freddie Wallace – Pub Equipment View Profile →

  • Practical Protection: The tall sides and  PE coating genuinely reduce chips and  breakages in a busy environment.
  • Size Specific: It’s perfect for pints, but less versatile for a mix of smaller wine or cocktail glasses.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Queen's Head, a popular gastropub in York, was struggling with frequent glass breakages during their frantic weekend service. Their old, low-sided dishwasher racks weren't providing enough protection, leading to unnecessary stock loss and  replacement costs.

"We switched to these high-sided Vogue baskets six months ago, and  the difference is night and  day. The team can move them around quickly without worrying about glasses toppling. They're sturdy, easy to clean, and  fit our washer perfectly. A simple change that has saved us a surprising amount of money."

Michael Davies – Landlord

The pub reported a significant drop in glassware expenses and  a much smoother, faster glass-washing workflow, especially during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon arrival, give the basket a quick rinse with warm water to remove any dust from transit.
  • Confirm it fits comfortably inside your 350mm glasswasher, with enough clearance for the spray arms to rotate freely.
  • There's no assembly required – it's ready to go straight out of the box. Simply start loading your glasses!

Keeping It Going

  • After busy shifts, rinse the basket to remove any lemon pips, straws, or other debris.
  • Periodically check the PE coating for any deep cuts or peeling to ensure it continues to protect your glasses.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh bleach, as this can damage the protective coating over time.
  • Stack them neatly when not in use to save space and  prevent damage.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Glasswasher Rack

Not sure which glass rack is right for your setup? Here are a few things to consider to make sure you get the perfect fit.

Measure Your Machine

The most important step! Check your glasswasher's dimensions. This is a 350x350mm basket, a common size for undercounter models, but always best to double-check.

Know Your Glassware

This model's high sides are perfect for tall, unstable items like pint glasses. If you mostly wash short tumblers or stemware, a different compartment style might be more suitable.

Material Matters

PE-coated wire is the gold standard for balancing durability with protection. It’s far superior to uncoated wire which can rust and  chip glasses, or flimsy all-plastic racks which can warp.

Think About Storage

How will you store your racks? These open-frame baskets are designed to be stackable, which is a huge space-saver in a crowded kitchen or bar area.

Calculate Your Capacity

Consider your busiest service. A 12-pint capacity helps you keep up with demand, ensuring a constant supply of clean glasses without overwhelming your wash station.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this glass basket stackable?

A: Yes, the Vogue CD242 is designed to be stacked, helping you save valuable storage space when the baskets are not in use.

Q: Will the PE coating peel off in the dishwasher?

A: No, the polyethylene coating is bonded to the wire and  is designed to withstand the high temperatures and  detergents of a commercial dishwasher.

Q: Can I use this for glasses other than pints?

A: While it's optimised for 12 pint glasses, its open compartment design can accommodate other tumblers or large glasses of a similar diameter.

Q: What is the main benefit of the open wire design?

A: The open design allows for maximum water and  air circulation, ensuring your glasses are washed thoroughly and  dry faster with fewer water spots.

Q: How do the sliding corners work?

A: The corners are designed to be smooth and  slightly rounded, allowing the basket to glide easily across wet or dry countertops without snagging.

Q: Will this rack rust over time?

A: The tough PE-coating acts as a waterproof barrier, protecting the metal wire underneath from rust and  corrosion, even with daily use.

Q: How heavy is the basket when empty?

A: It's very lightweight at just 1.24kg, making it easy for any member of your team to carry, even when fully loaded.

Q: Is this suitable for a conveyor-style dishwasher?

A: This rack is primarily designed for static undercounter glasswashers. For conveyor systems, you would typically need a rack with a different base design.

Why the PE-Coating Is a Glassware Lifesaver

You’ll see 'PE-Coated' mentioned, but what does that actually mean for your daily grind? PE stands for Polyethylene, a type of tough, flexible plastic. In this dishwasher rack for glasses, it acts as a protective, rubbery layer bonded directly to the metal wire frame. Think of it like a shock-absorbing phone case for your glassware. As glasses rattle around during a powerful wash cycle, this soft coating cushions them against the hard metal, preventing the tiny, almost invisible micro-fractures that eventually lead to cracks and  breakages. It also creates a waterproof seal, so you'll never have to worry about the underlying wire rusting and  leaving stubborn marks on your crystal-clear glasses. It's a small detail that makes a huge difference to the lifespan of both the rack and  your glassware.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Bars: Ideal for high-turnover establishments needing a fast and  safe way to wash pint glasses.
  • Restaurants & Gastropubs: Keep your glassware service consistent and  reduce replacement costs during busy dinner rushes.
  • Event Venues: A must-have glass storage rack for bars at weddings, conferences, and  large functions to streamline cleanup.
  • Hotel Bars: Perfect for ensuring room service and  bar glassware is always pristine and  ready for guests.
