Carousel Spice Rack (48-bottle): Maple by JK Adams

This spice rack is lovely and definitely meets my needs. I would recommend it for the serious cooks. I do have a small problem, when unpacking the rack from the saran type of plastic, a bottle stuck to the wrapping plastic. Before i could catch it, it had dropped to the floor and broke. It would be helpful to be able to rplace broken bottles and also to replace the lables as they become soiled.

This is the largest capacity spice rack I could find. It looks good and I am happy with the quality. Very solid and much heavier than I expected. It was packed VERY well for shipping.<br>The only thing I would change is that the corners of the metal base on which it sits are VERY sharp. I cut myself on it when taking the spice rack out of the box. But since this spice rack is stationary, this is not a major problem.

This is one of the few spice racks that will hold as many spices as I have in my pantry. It will also (barely) fit under my kitchen cabinets when placed on the kitchen counter, thus being easily accessible to the stove and small appliances. The mechanism is smooth, the jars are glass and easily accessible. Attractive labels are included for the lids. Although there is some time involved in loading the spices into the jars, the project can be rewarding.

I ordered two of the 48-bottle spice racks. The size of the bottles and the size of the slots vary. In both racks I found a bottle or two that were a bit large for most of the slots -- either a VERY tight fit, or not able to fit in the slot at all. The rack comes with the bottles in the slots. Some are a very tight fit -- and that same bottle won't fit in any other slot. I threw away some bottles and used some old ones from the rack I was replacing.

For anyone who uses a great variety of spices, this spice rack is fantastic. I cook often and try a lot of recipes. This spice rack was the perfect way to keep everything organized, the space to a minimum, and to be able to keep all of my spices in the same area which I didn't have room to do before.
