Important info on mounting
By Dave
As you can see by the other reviews, this is a great pot rack. However I have some very useful information if you want to purchase it. The rack was well designed and the mounts were spaced properly so that you screw the pot rack directly into the studs.There is a major flaw...the screws that they provide are only 1 1/4 inches long. My kitchen has 3/4 inches of plaster before you hit a stud and the rack is about an 1/8 of an inch wide. That means the screws only bite into the stud a total of 3/8 of an inch. The result...during installation the pot rack ripped itself out of the wall. So I found a better way to mount it.My solution cost an extra $1.77. I went to Home Depot and I bought five 1/4 by 2 inch lag screws and five 1/4 inch washers. I had previously measured and marked the three mounts on the main unit prior to installation. I then predrilled the holes with a 3/16 inch drill bit. Predrilling is very important, you don't want to split the stud when putting the lag screws in. And of course check your measurements so you don't miss the studs or put in any extra holes in your wall.Next put the washers on the lag screws and use a ratchet to screw them in place. Once the main portion of the rack was in place I installed the 2 supports, predrilled each hole, and installed the remaining lag screws.This pot rack is easily 10 times stronger than it would have been with the original hardware. I would hang cast iron cookware off of it without hesitation. It looks great in the kitchen and is ultra stable. I highly recommend the pot rack so long as you replace the original mounting hardware.

By Niall O'Driscoll
Like everyone else, I love this rack. One of the benefits of this wall mounted rack, as opposed to a rack suspended from the ceiling, is that you can hang and remove pots without worrying about unbalancing the rack and having things slide around or fall off. The downside is that this rack may be a bit more work to attach. My building is quite old and the wall studs weren't spaced 16 inches apart, as this rack requires. If you search the web for "how to hang a pot rack" you'll get all the extra info you need to deal with this and other problems not covered by the very brief instruction sheet.

I love this rack! Not only can it hold all your pots, it has a upper shelf as well. I keep my bread up there! It's very pleasing to the eye! Highly recommended! Easy to install too!
