Realistically, how many pots/fry pans will hang from this unit?
1376852
It comes with 6 hooks. I hang 8 pots & pans on it. Two sizes of frying pans share 1 hook and 2 sizes of pots share a hook. I thought about contacting the company to order extra hooks, but it's holding all of mine now, so I didn't worry with it. It has space for 9 lids too. I love that it hold lids. I would buy another in a second if anything ever happened to mine. I love not having to dig for the right lid. I also think you could double up a few more pans if you had more pans. I double up the smallest ones.

I have purchased this rack in white twice - once for my son and later for my daughter. Both have 11 piece Cuisinart sets as well as other frying pans. Neither put the large pot on the rack as it takes up too much space, but both are using the 6 hooks that come with the rack plus another 6 hooks that I ordered from the manufacturer. If you want extra hooks do not select from any of the suggestions on the site. Call the manufacturer (1-800-728-5698) and order a package of 6 extra hooks for $10. All the lids to their sets and more are held on the rack lid. They both love their racks. It is very convenient for them and really saves limited cabinet space in their small apartment kitchens. I wish I had wall space to get one also, but my kitchen layout is not conducive to this.

Lids fit easily in each slot. I have a large sauce pan and a steamer that fits inside on the back row. Two fry pans and a sauce pan on the front row. Everyone who has seen the rack think it is very nice. I hung the rack with toggle bolts because it's on a dry wall which would not support regular screws and I am not fond of other hanging screws or molly bolts. Hope this is helpful.

Mary, it comes with six hooks and I filled them...I have my large stock pot, medium sauce pot, small pot and a small fry pan, regular fry pan and an extra large sauté pan. All of the lids fit on top without banging into each other. I love this product!!

I have six on mine. I have five pieces of my stainless set and one cast iron frying pan on it. I did put the lids closer together on the top, but I did that to save room. I keep a few of my go-to cookbooks up there too.

Not a lot; maybe 4-6 or so, but it generally holds more than you think if you "stack" the items, because it is deeper than the typical dish rack. If you are just using it as secondary to your dishwasher (so just to hold plastics, pots, etc.) and you have a small household, this should work fine. If more for primary usage and/or household is larger, you might want to consider next size up.

I have pots and pans hanging from 4 hooks, plus lids and utensils. Other reviewers are correct, taking the time to find a wall stud & hanging it correctly is the only way to go! Otherwise you'll have a 'decorative' pot rack vs something that is actually 'useful'. It is attractive and sturdy and I'd buy it again

That really depends on your pots and pans and implements - I will say that I bought extra hooks and they are sitting in my drawer tights now. :D

There are 4 mounting locations. This should be mounted to studs in order to hold the weight.If mounted properly to studs, it can hold pots and pans on both the top and on the hooks.

Yes, it will handle a fry pan or very large pot, as well as a wok. Very good design. Update - Sorry, I didn't read this all the way. This unit is not well built, very wobbly - I returned it before I even fired it up, so I would now say "no" to using it for anything! I ended up buying one that was less expensive and better built. Can't recall the brand, but it was from an outfit in North Carolina. Found it - search Portable Kahuna XL

I have heavy stainless pans and it's fine (I screwed it to the floor of the cupboard). Works very well for fry pans but not enough space between shelves for sauce pans unless they're pretty small.

Hello,I used the unit for few days and than put it aside.We could not use it because after installing it on the kitchen sink faucet there was not enough clearance to use pots and pans in the sink.Thank you!

Well, I've got a set which includes 7 pieces of Cuisinart Tri-Pli All Clad plus a metal strainer and a rather hefty grilling pan. The weight would be a matter of what your wall can take - The bar and it's hooks are awesome and I'm confident would hold whatever you needed to hang: extremely sturdy, space efficient, not unattractive. I am extremely pleased with mine!

Yes, I have used a large pot to make stew on this along with a 6" skillet and a 12" skillet. I had no problems with it holding my pots and pans.

Yes you should be able to hang 7 pots. We have 6 plus a colander and a couple of strainers.

It comes w/ 8 hooks, but 2 different styles... 4 stick out from the wall, 4 are parallel (the hook curves along the wall). I use the parallel ones for utensils, the others for pots because the pot handle's holes won't hang properly unless they hang on the hooks with the curve coming away from the wall. So if you have more than 4 pots, I'd say definitely buy extra for pots. Also, fyi, our order came with 1 extra of the utensil type, and 1 short on the pot handle type.. cannot use the extra flat one for pots, but we have 2 of these racks side by side (thus 7 hook pots and 9 utensil hooks) and I have 7 pots hanging, the rest are utensils. hope this helps!

This pot rack has 10 double-sided hooks to hang things from. I personally have ten pots of various shapes and sizes hanging. I also store all the lids on top. This was a great buy for the price.

it will actually hold about 12" worth of pans: 6 - 2" pans, 3 - 4" pans, or 2 - 6" pans

I don't really know. But we hung all our All Clad pots and pans on the rack (10), and it does not have sign of problem so far.

I don't think they will work for that weight. Although they are sturdy and I have some heavy pots and iron frypans hanging I am not sure I'd want to try that much. 2 or 3 together might work, but you'd have to buy a pack to find out-Amazon had the best price for these as I looked around first and didn't find what I wanted quite like them for the value. If they don't work for this need keep them for another.

You can hang it from 2. You need to have 2 hooks coming down from the ceiling - the kind where it's just a solid circle at the end. Then you can use one of the hangers for the pots, you turn it upside down and hook it into that circle. That's how ours hang.
