Climbing Tendril 6-Bottle Wine Rack

Oenophilia 6-Bottle Climbing Tendril Hanging Wine Rack, ChromeWe have remodeled our kitchen and now have a 6 inch wide space between our cabinets and the doorway that just seemed to beg for something to fill it. We have been looking for a wine rack, and this one fits the space beautifully. That said, it would fill a larger space beautifully as well it really commands the area and draws the eye.

It comes in three pieces, shaped in spirals. Each piece has two spirals, which accommodate two wine bottles (for a total of six bottles when fully assembled.) The spirals hook onto one another (think 'barrel of monkeys'). I've experimented with several configurations of the spirals you can make them line up symmetrically so that all the spirals go the same direction, or you can arrange them in a more artsy, tumbled look. Either way, the presentation was quite eye catching in the kitchen, even before I put the wine bottles in place. Best of all, it doesn't take up counter space, and is a very space saving way to store the bottles.

One added note: I debated whether or not to use all three spirals that were included. Ours is hanging from a bulkhead, and it hangs a little bit low. There are several options included in the kit, which inspired me to consider using two spirals in the kitchen and one of the spirals in the basement. Ultimately, we decided to keep it all together, but it could be used as separate pieces. The optional hardware in the kit includes a wall bracket and a ceiling hook both are similar to the kind of hardware you would use to hang a plant in the kitchen. You choose which works better for your space. The optional extender rod is great if you have an extra high ceiling or if you want to use just one of the spirals alone in a different location as I considered. (I also considered giving the extender rod and a spiral to a friend with a smaller kitchen.)

Overall, I find this to be a piece that is as artful as it is functional, and very versatile to boot. And best of all, the price is quite reasonable. Highly recommended!!!!!!

My husband and I are not big drinkers, but we do use wine for cooking. What I like about this product is that in addition to being able to store unopened bottles cork down, you can also use it to store already-opened bottles cork up, which is how we use it (apologies to all of the wine-drinkers out there who are cringing as they read this). I also use it to store opened vinegar, etc., which has helped clear out my cabinets. You just reverse the way the bottle goes in. My only wish is that the bottles hung in a perfectly straight line. This is a more arty, dangling look, whereas I prefer things to be more linear. Still, it does the job that we need it to do very well.

The item looks great. It arrived as ordered. Why did I give it a poor review? Because the top hole in the bracket is aligned with the curved bar that has the hook for the tendrils. You will not be able to screw it in straight with a normal drill and screw bit. So far I have been unable to install it securely. This aspect is poorly designed and is not worth a great rating. If they redesign it and put the factory made hole above the top part of the curve I would give it a much better rating.
