Atlantic Gravity-Fed Compact Single Canrack - Kitchen Organizer, Durable Steel Construction, Size Fits Most Pantries, PN1002 in White

I bought two of these for my pantry several months ago, and they are holding up great! I use one for basic canned goods, and the fatter cans like spaghetti sauce, fruit, Progresso style soups, do have to go on the top rack, as they won't fit in the lower racks. Each shelf hold regular 15 oz cans three across by three deep. Technically, I can fit four cans deep, but the fourth one hangs partially off the lip of the rack, and if I did that in each spot the rack would become front-heavy and likely tip over (I decided not to test that theory). Smaller cans, like 10 oz Cream of Chicken soup, can fit four deep but still only three across (with some wiggle room). 24 oz cans of spaghetti sauce will fit two across by three deep on the top shelf, and still have enough room for six cans of tuna, two across by three deep. The second rack I bought to hold baby food, so regular 4oz glass jars fit four deep by five across per shelf, so with six shelves the racks holds 120 baby food jars, or you can do what I did and use the top shelf to hold all of the random other little snacks that babies go through so quickly. The racks are a little wobbly when you take cans in and out, but even being used several times per day I've never had a shelf fall. The most that's happened is a divider bar popping off, which doesn't affect much and is easy to slip back on. The only downside is that you can only see the can that's in front, so I only put like items in the same row, or I forget what's back there. Since it's only three cans deep it's not a big deal to check what you have, though, and to rotate cans if needed, since you can only put cans in through the front, not the back (so if you have one can of beans left and buy two more, you have to take out the one, put the two new purchases in, then put the older can in the front of the rack). Not a big deal to me, but may be a deal breaker for some. I definitely recommend these, and are the best storage I've found for baby food in particular, especially at this price.

My decision to buy the Atlantic 23235595 Double Canrack was based primarily on the depth of the shelving within my pantry. After reading the a lot of reviews on this product as well as others, I was pretty much convinced that I couldn't go wrong, especially with the sale price. I am glad I did, because the product was well made, sturdy, and easy to assemble and suits my needs perfectly. From another review, I picked up on the fact that this double canrack was simply two of their single canracks packed into one box at a discount, and this is how I am using the product, as single canracks. Several reviewers mention assembly problems but if you pay attention to the need for the loop to point outward on the back panel during assembly (as indicated in their instructions), it is no sweat. Also, several reviews mention problems of getting larger cans into the bottom and middle shelves, and what I found is that theloop vertical space between each of the shelves can be increased by hanging the shelf in question on the higher of the two horizontal rungs that each shelf hangs upon. (These can be seen in the picture on the left and right sides of the unit.) The instructions actually indicate placing the shelf on the lower of the two rungs, but it also works to hang a lower shelf on the lower rung, and the shelf above it on its higher rung. Effectively in that way, you will have an extra 1 inch approximate vertical clearance to move cans in and out of the lower shelf, standard clearance on the middle shelf, and clearance on the top shelf defined by the pantry shelving above it. (Remember I am using this in the single rack, three shelf mode.) I debated about giving this product 4 or 5 stars, as it is currently designed, for my needs it would be absolutely perfect if it was about 1/2 inch or 3/4 inches in order to maximize the vertical spacing between the shelves, but this would not be possible unless they changed their design specs, and then it would be a taller product. I did manage to grab a pdf of their instructions for the product and wanted to upload it here to add to the review, but sadly I can not. In lieu of that I am including links to these below, from the company's website. Also, some specifics on dimensions for the double canrack:(in inches ) Length: 15.25" Left To Right Measurement Width: 11.13" Front To Back Measurement Height: 23.25" Bottom To Top Measurement Weight: 7.30 lbs http://www.theatlanticstore.com/Instructions/Instructions_23235595.pdf For the single canrack; (in inches) Length: 15.25" Left To Right Measurement Width: 11.13" Front To Back Measurement Height: 11.75" Bottom To Top Measurement Weight: 3.60 lbs http://www.theatlanticstore.com/Instructions/Instructions_23235594.pdf

This is a sturdy item and I had no difficulty with assembly. It held together well once the shelves were inserted and I was able to easily move the entire unit to where I wanted it in my pantry. It can be assembled as shown with six shelves or it can exist as two units (each with three shelves). It feels very solid and secure. I did not use the included divider bars. I use a lot of fairly standard sized cans of food, such as 15.5 ounce cans of chickpeas, 13.5 ounce cans of coconut milk, and 14.5 ounce cans of diced tomatoes. I use these three foods the most of all the canned foods in my pantry and wanted these racks to organize my stockpile. I wish the rack were deeper. If it were, I could easily fit 12 of each type of can per shelf, but can only fit 9 total because the shelves are not deep enough to accommodate four cans in a row. I don't really buy soup cans, which are smaller, but I do buy small cans of tomato paste (6 ounce size), tomato sauce (8 ounce size), and canned green chilies (4 ounce size). I can successfully fit more of these smaller cans, with a smaller diameter, per shelf. I took a star off of the review because it was frustrating to me to be unable to put up my most commonly used foods four cans deep. I foolishly tried to put an extra can, resting on top of the third can and the back of the rack, on each row on the top tier. I recommend you do not try that. As does the big toe on my right foot. It was attacked when one can of chickpeas decided to do a belly flop off of that top tier onto my foot! Overall, a good product, but be aware, if you stockpile certain cans of food in the size range mentioned, that you will have a gap in the back of each tier behind the three cans that do fit. I have inserted my small cans of tomato paste in front of the three larger cans, but my OCD side doesn't really like the way that looks. I didn't read the assembly instructions (I know an engineer who claims they are really "destructions" and meant to be read only when taking a thing apart). I first had the sides turned out the wrong way and couldn't fit the first shelf into place, so I turned the sides in the other direction and everything went together quickly and easily. I read some of the other reviews and I guess that's a common issue -- the sides facing the correct direction. I might buy again. I'll play with what I put on the two I have (I have them set up to be individual can organizers and I do not have them stacked right now) and decide later on. I am glad that I ordered, but I wish I had considered the depth of the item and the capacity of each tier of the organizer.

So, I got the 2-pack of this to either stack or sit side by side. 4 plastic feet were supposed to be included, but we’re not. I put each together and had them stacked at first. Set it on my countertop and began loading. The feed from the back is not possible for me, so my hope of FIFO is dashed. The next thing I noticed was that in loading up my vegetable cans, I was presorting them according to contents (a row of peas, a row of corn, etc) and if I only had 1 or 2 cans on some shelves, even the higher shelves, it became tippy towards the front. I also am experiencing a slightly narrowed front opening so that putting in and taking out cans from the front becomes more delicate given the already tippy nature. I am currently looking into weights to anchor the back of the rack. In the meantime, putting the 2 racks side by side has reduced the tipping somewhat, but not alleviated it. Would I recommend this one? No.

We have a lot of canned goods and this turned out to work perfectly for us. I don't really use the dividers except for the rows that I have smaller cans on. It took a little coordination to put it together but it wasn't a big deal. As long as you're not drunk it'll take you all of two seconds to figure out which way to turn the sides so the racks will fit. It feels like it's good quality and it's sturdy. I'm sure you could find thicker metal or plastic but for the application here that isn't necessary. It's holding cans, not body weight. I read a comment about it being cheap but mine feels pretty stable. I always take those reviews into consideration before making an amazon purchase. I like that it can be separated (it's just 2 can racks and the pair is cheaper than buying one by itself) so that when we move in future we'll be able to use it in a different kitchen. As of now, it's stacked. Obvious benefits are that I can utilize the vertical space in a cabinet and see where everything is located. Even if I have three different cans in a row at least I only have to move 2 cans to get to the one I need instead of tearing apart my cabinet to get to the mystery can in the back. For larger cans, I used the top row and one beneath it by using the upper support bar to make more space between the shelves which you can see in the photo. This works for us because I just don't have that many big cans. Best of luck!

It is perfect. It fits perfectly on my 10" deep shelf, was easy to put together, fits an assortment of cans. It will not hold up a car, but it holds all of those cans just fine. I forgot to put in the slide deviders, but they are not really necessary for me. I needed to be able to keep a larger assortment with only a few of each item; I can have two of each veg and have plenty of variety by putting the cans in long-wise, and the cans slide right down like they are supposed to. One note - I left the front of the bottom tray directly on the shelf, not on it's bracket - see pic - to accommodate the getting the cans in and out of the bottom shelf. Also there is 13 1/4" between the shelves. Works like a charm! For $8 you can't beat it - I'm getting a second one.

Absolute pain in the a** to try and put together. One of them went together just fine - after reading a previous review on the proper way to assemble them (the directions I got are iffy and the pics are too small for me to distinguish much). The other one, however, must have a warp or something. I still can't get it to stay put together. I put one shelf on and when putting the next one on, the first one pops put. I've tried putting the shelves on in a different order but still they keep popping up. I've tried having someone hold the previous shelf in place so I can put the next one on but as soon as they let go, they all pop up again. If I put cans on them it will probably be better but the whole idea is that it stays assembled even if it's not currently in use. I'm hoping they'll send me a replacement without me having to pay to ship this back or drop it off at a store (Kohls) that is out of our way and that we never even go to. Really disappointing because the one that actually stays put together seems like it will get the job done but I paid for 2 that get the job done, not 1.

I'm very happy with these shelves. I was hesitant to buy them because of some not so favorable reviews but for our pantry these are great! We don't have a lot of room and I was tired of stacking cans on top of each other where I couldn't see what we had or I was knocking all of them over to get another can out. Thanks to these shelves I can see what we have and get it out easily. On each shelf I can get 2 regular sized cans across and 3 cans from the front to the back. I leave a space in the middle where I put smaller cans that will fit such as tomato paste, mushrooms, or applesauce snack cups. We can sometimes get 3 cans across (notice in the picture the second row on the left has a can of green beans, corn, and tomato sauce) but the sauce is slightly smaller. We can also get 3 cans of cream soups across. Our pantry is much neater and organized with these shelves. I can also plan grocery lists and meals easier since I can see everything at once. Mine have held everything with ease and seem durable. If needed I would buy these again because they've been great!

Excelente

good and does what it says some cupboards were to small to put it in. just swopped things around good

My Cans are on a Stairway to Heaven: "Copco 2555-0188 Non-Skid 3-Tier Cabinet Organizer, 15-Inch" so that's perfect, but this Can Rack is a perfect Plates & Bowls holder/organizer for my cupboard. Besides the top shelf of this Can Rack was touching the top of the shelf with the cans on them. So those Canned Goods are on the stairway to heaven and this becomes the organizer for the plates and dishes. That cupboard is perfect size to have plates on each shelf of this Canrack, not only that, but bowls and small saucers on the side on the same shelf. Sharing and organizing at will, because all those old heavy plates and old light plates are always on top of each other, so now I have the light ones alone and the heavy one's alone. I don't like heavy dishes, and I don't like moving them to get to the wonderfully light dishes. And we have two of these Racks on the shelves, they both do the same thing, and in between them both we put the special tall glasses and cups and stuff. It's fun and sweet, and a good thing I could use it for something else other than the Canned Goods because apparently no one likes it for that. But it's not useless it's perfect for me and could be used for anything else that needs that kind of build, such as an arts and crafts room, or an office, so don't give up on it, it does help. "What? A Canrack? Mom says it's a holder for her different washroom make-ups and creams". It holds paper, papers, mail and magazines to name a few other things, so think of it as the Company getting the name wrong, and asking you to call it something else besides useless. Get Creative. When you're working on the different rooms with your washing and cleaning brushes, you can keep the cleaning brushes on this thing, with drying towels on the top, it's handy and practical. Having a Barbecue or Social Gathering, everyone loves a table displayed with foods, not racks, but foods, and you can put trays on these racks or big square plates, and then snacks or foods, on each shelf of this CanRack. No one will realize it's not even for social event snack tables. You won't find anything of this design or build anywhere else but this company and right now, so even though it's not good for what they say it is, it is still good, and you'll wish you found this design or build for something else later on down the road. Besides, If you hate it so much, give it to Mom without a name, and she'll find something for it, loving it, and asking you to get another one, then you can tell her your story and she'll laugh and laugh and laugh. Enjoy Mom's Laugh that's worth it all.

Merci

Die Nasen mit denen man die Regalböden in das Regal einhängt sind anders geformt als auf den Verkaufsbildern hier. Sie sind zu kurz, was dazu führt dass man das Regal auf Biegen und Brechen nicht zusammenbauen kann. Es wirkt als wenn am Material gespart werden sollte, aber niemand überprüft hat, ob die Funktion noch gegeben ist.
