The device includes a housing on which a spinner is mounted that has an open trough and angled end for effectively spraying water and causing rotation of the spinner without clogging. The small size of the device allows placement in strategic locations for effective water spraying distribution and yet does not obstruct or reduce the placement of dishes, glasses, cups, utensils, pots, pans, etc. in the dish racks.
