I loved my old pot rack that dangled everything, but I did not know what I was missing. This almost makes art of all the kitchen stuff I hang up on it, and it feels so much cleaner, sleeker, and more organized than my old pot rack! We ended up mounting them a few inches apart which is fantastic because it looks even more like art against our freshly red-painted kitchen walls AND it gives you a little extra space to fit more objects in a clean way. So glad I stumbled upon this!
