I have 3 of these, they are very nice. I also have a couple other similar ones, different brands, selected for different heights and/or widths (if you want something for a narrower cabinet, you can find one that does not open as much, for a little less). 7 in total. This format expands your storage options greatly, and the open design gives a much more spacious effect (and better visibility) to the cabinet, than the addition of another solid shelf would. Honestly I do not have any I do not like, all work, all appear as if they will last a lifetime, and if I move, they can move with me. Figure out how and where you'll use them, Order a few, and see what you wind up with. A few times I've not been completely happy with how one worked for the planned use, but was able to put it to good use in another cabinent. Then I just poked around Amazon and found that slightly different one I needed, and ordered it.
I originally intended to use this shelf for coffee mugs but the height (4.5") turned out to be too low. I already have the Seville Classics SHE14052 Expandable Kitchen Counter Shelf which works fine for mugs but it's also double the price of this one. While this Schulte shelf is not as thick and heavy duty as the Seville, it still looks good and I knew I could use it for something else. I have a tall cupboard where I store serving bowls, sheet pans and pot lids. I put the pot lids below the shelf and the bowls on top. The sheet pans I inserted at the side and the shelf actually holds them upright.
I bought this for underneath my kitchen sink. It was perfect for what I was needing. I like that it is expandable so if I decide to use it somewhere else, it will fit
Depth was just right for the cabinet. I was able to use the shelf fully extended. I wanted it to a rubber or other non-hard coating, so deducted one star for that reason. The unit seems to sit flat with dishes on it. Correlle fits well, as that is what I have.
I don't have a lot of cupboard space and was looking for something like this to be able to give me more shelf space. I bought 2 and I put dishes on the bottom and the top and it really makes a big difference. Things that I had to reach for on a higher shelf are now on the bottom part of the shelf and my other dishes are on the top. It is very sturdy, not at all flimsy. If you have shelf space problems, I would highly recommend these. Solved a big problem I had.

Description
The beauty of the Organized Living Adjustable Shelf is that it can be extended or condensed to create custom storage space in your cabinets or pantry. Designed to give you the freedom to extend its size from 17 to up to 34 inches, the Organized Living Kitchen Organizer adjustable shelf is a great addition to an organized kitchen. Use it to store canned goods and boxed foods in a pantry or plates and glasses in a cabinet.
I bought several of these for my cabinets. Instead of having 3 shelves, I now have 6. I don't use them for glasses but for plates, platters, bowls, mugs and other glass items that I don't want to stack too high. I love the fact they are adjustable because I can use them in different cabinets. These are very sturdy, too. My cabinets look so well organized and these shelves make everything accessible. I really can't have enough of them.
This wire shelf is very well built. I also own the Rubbermaid wire shelf that is similar to this.
Pros: Very sturdy and strong. Steel is noticeably thicker than the Rubbermaid wire shelf unit. Great for holding up plates and bowls and heavier items.
Cons: The legs are not very tall. Cans of soup will not stand up underneath this shelf. I can fit cans of tuna and small jars underneath it but no 'regular sized' cans or jars.
I thought that the other racks of this type were too tall or were otherwise a poorer fit. This proved to be just right for the bottom shelf of a wall cabinet. By using this to stack our plates and other dishes we freed up some shelf space and made the most used dishes easier to access.
It not only helps expanding the cabinet storage space but make it so convenient for short people like me. I am 5' 2" and kind of limited in terms of reaching the high cabinet shelf. Naturally I want to keep all my dish wares in the lowest shelf. With this shelf divider, now I have all my most used cups and plates neatly organized on the first shelf. I love this product.
I love organizing, and these shelves have really helped me to maximize my rather meager cupboard space. I have at least six of these in use in my kitchen and am very happy with them. One small criticism might be that the top wires, though fairly close, are far enough apart that items need to be set on it with precision so they don't tip.
