This is a very nice stainless steel rack at a very good price. I installed this on a column in my kitchen and it turned up really nice. It has a great design that holds my very heavy Emerilware Pot set (including lids), a fondue pot, and a few extra skillets.

Installation was not that bad... about the same as installing a shelf. However, the hardware that was included didn't give me too much confidence. It was a few small screws with thin plastic anchors. Instead, I used a few toggle bolt wings which can hold a few hundred pounds. Everyone that sees my kitchen loves the rack and I can't be any happier!

Nice design for a 3' wide area of wall we have. The upper shelf has only a single screw in the center to attach to the wall, and this allows the edges of the top shelf to bend away from the wall and make the front of both shelves slant downwards. I added 2 holes at the edge of the upper shelf and attached those to wall anchors too, but it still sags a little bit. A good value, but I would rather pay $50 more for a sturdier design that sits truly level.

With the 3 screws at the top and the OEM 2 on the bottom shelf, I feel completely comfortable putting 7 pans and lids on this rack and it helped clean up the kitchen and free up cabinet space. I'm happy but the design could be better.

I really liked this wall mount pot rack. It's a basic design that we found very useful. It's plenty sturdy, and you only need 3 holes in your wall. Wall anchors are provided. There is room for many more hooks than the half-dozen-or-so provided. We purchased some Cuisinart hooks that are angled - those work well on the sides of the rack.

My only other suggestion is to have some soft of rubber mat availble when assembling. The shelf uses decorative ball-end fasteners. If you have a rubber matt available to you, the shelf can be assembled very sturdy by wrapping the matt around the ball-end screw and hand-tightening. Ladies or those without a strung grip can use the mat and a pliers or vice grip to solidly tighten the screws. If those screws are not securly tightened, the shelf unit will not be nearly as sturdy. Perhaps this suggestion my help an earlier reviewer. We used a piece of rubberized shelf-liner that is commonly available (and works great underneath portable cutting boards).

We have the Stainless Steel version of this rack and have found the finish to be very durable.

It looks nice, but very cheaply made. The mounting holes are arranged 1 on top, 2 on the bottom. When weight is put on the holder, it pulls out away from the wall, due to the poor placement of the mounting holes. If you buy it, be ready to drill new holes in the top horizontal member. It does look very nice on my wall though :-)

This is a nice looking pot rack; i bought the stainless version. I have a cuisinart set of pans:Cuisinart 77-17 Chef's Classic Stainless 17-Piece Cookware Set and it compliments them nicely. Plenty of room for lids on the bottom shelf, and room for a few other items on the little top shelf. The included hooks provide room for my 3 sauce pans, as well as 3 frying pans, and a big risotto pan, with another hook leftover. Only part of the pan set that i don't use the rack for is the big 9-quart stock pot, but that's just my personal preference. All-in-all for the price i think this is a great item, only took a few minutes to install by myself. No complaints!

While the design and size were great - the construction left something to be desired. With only a few pots hanging from the rack, the top portion was dipping down. After my husband drilled 2 additional holes in the top band and affixed all three hollow wall fasteners it improved but was not perfect. All in all we like the pot rack but the manufacturer should have installed a couple of these first before offering them to the public.

This is a wonderful pot rack for organizing when you don't have a lot of cabinet space for pots and pans. It's attracive on the way but doesn't take up a bunch of space itself because it mounts to the wall. I just love this product and I'm so glad I purchased it.

I am quite pleased with my purchase although I thought it important to write this review as the packaging was great and the instructions were complete.
The only thing I found a slight problem was that during assembly of the product I noticed the edges were quite sharp and I feel they should have been made with smoother edges.
I only hope that using this product does not cause injury to either myself or others.

The shelf is great, but it tends to lean forward. I added extra reinforcements as the 3 provided didn't seem to be enough. Also, I make sure I put the heaviest pots towards the back.

The finish on this rack is very nice. The larger bottom shelf is big enough for lids or a small pot. The top shelf is very small and will only serve as decorative storage. I have a 12 piece kitchenaid set that weighs about 25 lbs. The bottom shelf is too small for the 8 quart stockpot.

As with other reviews, I noticed right away that it will pull away from the wall if the weight limit is exceeded. With < 25 lbs this is barely noticed. However, it is rated for 30-40 lbs. I will probably add additional top screws if I decide to move or remount to reanchor the bottom screws. The two bottom screws are very close to the side. This made mounting the bottom screws very difficult. Especially with any kind of power screwdriver. It was so difficult I considered sending it back. However, I finally got the screws in place and it seems ok.

The top shelf is almost useless and mounting is more complicated than you might expect.

For the money, you may want to shop around.
