"We bought this pot rack to clear some space in our cabinets and don't have enough height to hang one from the kitchen ceiling. It is now holding two large frying pans, two large saucepans and a large metal colander. I even have a few light metal pans sitting on the shelf on top. It looks great in our kitchen and I've gained so much more cabinet space by clearing these pots and pans out. We're so happy we bought this!"
