I originally bought a different model and I hated its thin wire and very poor design. I just got this in the mail today and I can say that its a million times better.
First off this is made of a nice thick gauge wire, not the coat hanger thin wie the competition is made of. (It actually has some heft to it) Secondly I like that the uprights that hold the lids in place are sufficiently tall that they prevent the lids from toppling over.
I also like the design of the bottom of the unit. it has these dual rails that run front to back. I like mine secured to the drawer in which it sits so I popped a couple of screws in between those rails so that when you open and close the drawer the unit stays in place,
In fact the only complaint I have about this unit is that I wish it were a few inches longer if this was 4" longer it would be perfect!

I love these! I will probably use these in every house I own. It's great to be able to reach under the counter and grab the lid I need!
This is a heavier gauge metal with plastic covering lid or plate holder. I have 26 plates in a variety of five different sizes. All lite weight Corning Ware and stainless steel plates which fit very well in the spaces.
This was close to what I wanted, but not exactly right - but it's my pantry's and my expectations' fault, not the product itself. This item sits the plates up fairly high - the edges that the plate lips rest on is a bit more than 1" high. I only have 11 1/4" between shelves, so this makes it hard to get the plates out if I don't start at one end. My meat platter fits in it nicely, but for my plates, the spacing is awkward - as another person says, thinner plates lean back a good amount. But putting 2 plates into each slot isn't a good fit either. Also, it's not really obvious from the picture, but each of the dividers is a little taller than the one in front of it, so the first one's about 3", and the last is about 4.5". For my situation, I would've been better off finding a 12-slot that was 3/4" or so between dividers. It is a nice heavy gauge, and covered to not scratch your dinnerware.
I love to keep things organized, especially with our tiny kitchen so when the cabinet we keep our lids in started to just become a cluttered mess, I was on the hunt!
This lid holder is exactly what I needed and has made a huge difference in our small cabinet! We've been using it for over a year now and it still looks brand new, so its definitely worth the price. The quality is great and sturdy. I have a ton of different size lids and they all fit perfectly without falling out.
This was a huge space saver for our kitchen and I highly recommend for anyone who needs a little more organization in their kitchen.

Description
The Organize It All Wire lid rack is great for holding plates or lids. This lid rack is a sturdy and stylish solution to organizing your pot and pan lids. The rack is coated with vinyl so that there will be no scrapes to your plates or lids
After moving into our new place, i was in that mode of looking critically at how we stored things, and i started getting very critical of the old school way of storing dishes...one on top of the other.
Amazon to the rescue, i found this and ordered it. Aweeeeesome! exactly what i wanted.
Quality:
very good, not dollar store, but rather a satisfyingly thick frame with a thick coat of that white coat stuff.
Design:
Perfect, BUT: we have some deep dish plates, kind of a dinner plate with a deep dip in it so it's kind of a bowl too, and those fit a little more oddly into this, but they still do fit. I like that the holders get larger towards the back, and that they're not overly tall like some other models, so it's easy to grab a plate without having to have human tweezer fingers.
Quirks:
If you take too many plates off the front end, the back end could tilt back. If this bothers you, just use some small screws or thumbtacks to secure it down.
Now i don't understand anyone who doesn't have one of these
Love this for my pot and pan lids! They stay in place. It's not perfect but I'm very satisfied with the way it holds lids in place. I tried an uncoated version where each section was the same size instead of graduated heights. The lids did not stay in place and it's now in the garage sale pile.
Perfect! Exactly what I needed for my pot lids and Tupperware lids! Now I won't spend so much time looking for the right lid while throwing everything else around the kitchen! A must have for the organized chef!
No more piled up lids and racket from clanging them together looking for the right size. I have all my lids sorted by size and never have to worry about pulling one lid out and 3 others following it in a noisy clatter on to the floor. These have simplified cooking and created more space and organization.
I've combined this with the Coleman 33-Quart Party Stacker Cooler to create a DIY sous vide tank for the Gourmia GSV140. This sturdy wire rack is completely covered in a plastic coating to keep any rust at bay. The spacing works great to hold vacuum packaged food.
