Great product, a little smaller than expected

So the baskets came out a little smaller than expected but it's my fault for not being careful (I only measured the overall height). Other than that, GREAT product! We've recently started eating healthier and our old fruit and veg bowl, while quite large, holds no more than 1/3 of what we now have in fresh fruit and veg. A beautiful and functional addition to our kitchen, this product fits right under our cabinets. I was going to buy two but only got one to see how it would work. Delivered…

Great holder for my coffee pods

I've been looking for something to hold my K-cups for a long time. We have different cups as my wife and I love different types of coffee. I found this and it was the perfect size, at least according to the description. I decided to give it a try so I bought one and when it arrived I assembled it. One of the screws holding the two sections didn't go in, but as the other went in fine I figured it was ok as I wouldn't be lifting it. It holds a lot of K cups, which is what I wanted it for. My only

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • New competitors

Honestly, the basket set is beautiful, but not very practical. I'm surprised it has so many rave reviews. The baskets don't hold as much as you think, and if you try to put more than a few onions or pieces of fruit in, they tip over and things fall out because the baskets aren't front-to-back centered. Maybe you could eat 2 large onions or some apples/oranges before it gets too full. The gaps are also quite large, making it easy to damage the fruit when it comes into contact with the grate and…

Peeling and rusty paint!

I hit something sharp while pulling out the base parts. It was paint peeling off RUSTY metal. I wanted to ignore it and hope the baskets themselves are made of better material, but I am VERY worried about putting food in a rusty fruit basket. As I proceeded to assemble it (when I was debating whether or not to keep it) I noticed that all my hands were covered in black powder. Unfortunately, this was the last straw for me. I really wanted to love this product and have never had anything faulty…

Pros
  • Heavy Duty
Cons
  • Damaged

I love this item (department store)! It's big size - can stand on the counter without taking up TOO much space, but it has enough storage capacity. I recently signed up for a grocery delivery service and was inundated with an avalanche of avocados and apples all over my stalls. this is the perfect solution! Keeps everything nice and vertical, circulates to keep fruit from spoiling and the base doesn't take up too much counter space - I can still use the space for cooking. (The white thing in…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Two (2) nuts are welded to the frame to secure the vertical handle. They included a small wrench to tighten the bolts. However, if you tighten the screws with the thought that they will go through the wall of a vertical square tube, you realize that due to poor workmanship, no one can do it. weld nuts. As you can see from the picture the hole in the nut does not line up with the hole in the frame. As a result, you tighten the screws to the limit and the handle just pops out of the frame. if the
