I recently moved into a very small studio apartment with limited counter space and I LOVE to cook. After reading the reviews, I thought I'd try this baker's rack and at the great price it wasn't a big "risk". It arrived in 2 days and it was so easy to put together. You can use either side of the bamboo board. I use the completely flat side of the board. It is very sturdy and I store my Kitchen-Aid stand mixer, Vitamix, Crock pot, 3 large pots and 4 saute pans. The hanging hooks are handy to hold my kitchen tools (spatulas, tongs, etc) and the shelf on the top holds all measuring cups. Can't say enough about how awesome this product is. I have 3 friends who saw it and are all planning on purchasing one soon!

Pros: Great value, very sturdy, holds a lot of items
Cons: Nothing!
