Premier Steel Wall Pot Rack

Enclume PR10-HS Premier Shelf with Half Circle Wall Rack, Hammered SteelWe've been working on our kitchen since we moved into our new place, and even though I've increased the size of my kitchen substantially, I find that I never have enough room. Clearly, getting the pots out of the cabinetry was key, but with the layout of the room, there aren't a whole lot of options. Finally, I found this pot rack, and it's exactly what I'd been looking for. Unlike other wall-mounted racks that we looked at, the mounts extend the rack 4" away from the wall, allowing me to hang smaller pots from the main rail without having them bang against the drywall. I was able to mount the rack within 1 1/2" from the ceiling and still add/remove the hooks easily, giving me the maximum amount of room and head clearance (note my wife and I are both above-average height, so this solution may not work for everyone). Mounting was easy you have to have wooden studs to mount this into the wall (4 carriage bolts finished to match included), and owners of older homes should be aware that lat-and-plaster finished homes are likely not going to be able to accommodate. Ceiling hooks are included, but I didn't see any use for them, given the way the wall mounts work (but they'll be nice for other work I'm doing). The biggest negative I see is that the hook count is a bit skimpy and additional hooks are a bit pricy, given the overall cost of the rack. But, I still give this rack a 5/5 it's sturdy, well-made, easy to mount, and I'm confident that I will get many years of use out of it.
