Review on ๐Ÿท Kitchen Organization: Southern Homewares Nine Bottle Wine Display Wall Rack - Simple Storage for Wine or Spirits by Virgilio Patton

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Only fits 750ml bottles, requires rack assembly in addition to assembly

I originally bought this rack specifically for its single vertical pole mount so it could be securely mounted to a single wall stud. I was planning to install this stud in an open frame/non-drywall area, so I couldn't rely on the drywall anchors or custom length mounting holes that other studs require. That was an advantage for this stance and still is for this stance, no complaints here. After receiving and testing the rack, I quickly became disillusioned. The most obvious disappointment for me is that this rack only holds standard 750ml bottles. The vertical distance between the shelves is too small for a 1.5 liter bottle and the shelves are too deep for a 375 ml bottle. I may not be a typical wine consumer, but I have all three wine sizes in the house at all times. If you only have standard sized bottles, this coaster might still work for you. The second disappointment is that the stand itself requires little assembly. I don't usually mind, but in this case the stand is in two pieces and they're needed. must be snapped together to hold the two pieces together. Something about that really put me off. Seems like it could be assembled as a single piece or more easily assembled with a clip, pin or overlapping screw hole when installing.

Pros
  • Always loved
Cons
  • I won't say anything
