A drip pan is not needed. Most of the water that collects in a typical drip pan comes from the water that drips off your hands as you transfer the bottle over to the rack. Once the cup or item is washed and rinsed, lightly shake over the sink to remove the large water left behind and place in the EZ Bottle rack. Once all the bottles and accessories are washed wipe down the countertop and the remain water will evaporate off the bottle.

No, this rack system can grow as your kids grow. The EZ Bottle system will hold sippy cups to kids water bottles. Other Items it can hold are protein shaker bottles, and other plastic containers. It is not recommended to use for any glass objects.
