Product Description
A good choice for those with smaller kitchens and no island, this wall-mounted rack still affords you the opportunity to free up some cabinet space and keep your cookware handy at the same time.

Amazon.com Review
Is your Calphalon collection getting out of control? Does finding the right pot mean triggering an avalanche of gourmet cookware when you open a cabinet door? Time to unclutter. Made out of the same heavy-gauge aluminum as Calphalon's hard-anodized cookware, this handsome wall-mounted rack puts your pots and pans on display, keeps them within quick reach, and frees up cabinet space, all at the same time. (Also, the pans don't rub or scrape against one another, which minimizes damage to your valuable investment.) A wall-mounted rack is the best choice for low-ceilinged kitchens, and as an added bonus, it doesn't block overhead light. Calphalon's patented pot rack hooks can support up to 60 pounds each. They slide freely up and down the rack but won't come off when you reach for a pan. The rack itself is easy to assemble with simple household tools, but Calphalon recommends professional installation. Maybe that's why this kit does not include mounting hardware. --Mary Park

5 out of 5 stars Perfect for my space   May 19, 2010
Julie (Fall Creek, OR USA)
I have a small kitchen with not enough space for all the stuff a gadget lover like me accumulates. There was some unused wall space up high but I had to be sure not to get something so long that it would interfere with a cupboard door. 32 inches was perfect. It doesn't come with hardware but it was easy to obtain the fasteners that worked with my wall. I bought a couple of extra hooks and it holds all my skillets and a sieve. I'm happy with the simple design and charcoal gray color. A winner for me.

Exactly as described. Does the job of keeping my pots up and out of the way. The pots and pans look nice also, hanging up. The bar is nothing fancy, but utilitarian. I have an Enclume bar which is far nicer and designed much better. Big difference is this one is far cheaper and still does the job. Recommend if function is your main consideration.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect Simple Pot Rack   March 11, 2010

This pot rack is perfect for a small kitchen ,it simple and fuss free. The price is right and it gets the job done.It DOES NOT included hardware,for me i live in a old home so it has plaster walls and does not require a lot of mounting materials. It is perfect!


5 out of 5 stars Pot Racks are great!   January 17, 2010

We had the Caphalon oblong pot rack before and it took up too much space hanging from the center of the ceiling. And we were always bumping our heads on the pots hanging from it. We bought 2 of these wall mounted ones and put them on either side of a beam in the kitchen. They open up the room, are much more convenient, and look nicer. Now we don't have to worry about bumping into the pots! We are very happy with the purchase and the price!

Nothing new to add with this review that others haven't already stated. The rack shipped quickly and arrived safely.

32" is a decent size for holding four pieces. Currently hanging from mine are a Le Creuset 3-Ply Stainless-Steel 3-Quart covered Saucepan, Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 10 2/3 Inch Crepe Pan, Cobalt, Le Creuset 3-Ply Stainless-Steel 3-Quart Saute Pan, and Le Creuset 3-Ply Stainless-Steel 11-Inch Nonstick Fry Pan. With these items hanging, the rack still feels quite secure when you give it a tug with your hands. I would not want to add any more items, but that is strictly due to the limited width.


Things I like:
** The rack works well and mounts solidly, even into drywall.
** The hooks go on the rack easily via the access notches at either end, and do not come off unless slid back to an access notch.

Things I could go either way on:
** The rack only comes with four hooks. The rack isn't really wide enough to handle more than 4 pots/pans, but a fifth hook would mean a pot holder, stirrer, or other small basic kitchen tool could be hung.

Things I don't like:
** As others mentioned, mine also has the anodizing chipped away around the mount holes. True Type-3 hard anodizing shouldn't do this, so I'm not really certain what is going on with that. I don't think that bodes well for the durability of the finish along the edges (particularly the top edge) where the hooks can slide. Of course, the top edge isn't visible to people under 11ft tall, and the hooks won't be moving around very much.
** The rack DOES NOT come with mounting hardware despite being listed as "complete." You will have to go to the hardware store and buy it yourself. Because the mounting holes are large, you will want a much larger fastener than the guy in the hardware store may recommend without seeing them. IIRC, I went with #17 screws and appropriate drywall anchors.
** Because the rack DOES NOT come with mounting hardware, you will end up with shiny chrome-like fastener heads showing against the black/charcoal finish of the rack.
