I registered for the Boon Lawn, but received the Munchkin Bottle Drying Rack at my work shower yesterday. Do I need them both, or should I return the bottle drying rack? I haven't gotten the Boon Lawn yet, but I like the look of it better so I'll probably buy it if I don't get it at my other shower.
I don't think you need both. In fact, I have the lawn and never use it. I wash everything in the dishwasher and then just put it right in the cupboard. Lazy mom, party of 1.
The Lawn is the bigger one, right? The other one is just too tiny.
We have the grass and use it for pump parts right now. Get the tree accessory too like in the picture.
We don't have a bottle drying rack - once DS starts daycare we will just run the dishwasher more often, and barring that the grass works for us just fine (we have limited counter space otherwise I'd go for the lawn).

Yeah it's the bigger one.
I have a thick dish drying mat that I use for our dishes, but I figured the Lawn would be better for drying bottles and pump parts.
If I don't need both, I'll return the bottle drying rack, I just didn't want to return it then wish I'd kept it.

I wouldn't think you need both. We have the Boon one and I LOVE it. I also use it for wine glasses and other stuff occasionally. I'll keep using it once we're out of the bottle stage!
I had the Boon and an Oxo Tot drying rack. I rarely used them. The Boon one didn't seem very functional to me, but I liked the look of it better than the others.

I have the Boon Lawn (no tree though! SAD) and we use it all the time. I wouldn't need two drying racks though. Use which one you like the most and get some cash money for the other!

I have the lawn one and love it. It helps keep pump and bottle parts separate from our regular drying racks ( where dishes especially little ones get lost). I use the dishwasher daily, but it rarely dries my bottles. In fact I googled this morning- Dishwasher won't dry bottles for a fix. Glad to know its not just me.
I don't think you need 2 unless you plan to have lots and lots of bottles. I have 12 drinking bottles, 12 storage bottles ( enough for two days) and 3 sets of pump parts in rotation and the one rack is fine for me, though its usually always full.
I don't think you need both, but we have the lawn and really like it. I set things out after the dishwasher to make sure they're dry before putting them away. Not things I want to risk getting mildew or something on, you know?

You can buy a tree or flower separately. I like it for nipples or the small yellow pump pieces.

I have the boon lawn and that was all I needed. I had the smaller one though and it would have been nicer to have the large one. I would not have both.

We've used both of those and have also gone without a drying rack. Of the three options, I've found that the grass is my favorite. It is the most versatile, has less water pooling in the bottom (and therefore less scum/ water deposit build-up), and the bottles/ pump parts dry faster than when left only on a drying mat.
