Constructed from Moso bamboo, this 3-tier rack uses cross-laminated sheets to help prevent warping in kitchen environments where steam and heat are common. The 12mm side supports provide solid lateral stability, and the material is rated to support up to 15 lbs across the entire unit. It is designed with formaldehyde-free adhesives, supporting a more natural home environment.
Each step is approximately 3 inches deep, which is ideal for standard 2-inch diameter jars. Tests indicate that while the bamboo is strong, the center of the steps can flex if used to store very heavy items like stone mortars and pestles. For the best longevity, it is recommended to avoid over-tightening the assembly screws to keep the bamboo fibers intact.
Specifications show that the unit lacks silicone feet on the base. For those with polished quartz or stone countertops, adding small felt or rubber pads can help prevent the unit from sliding or scratching the surface.
The aesthetic of the raw bamboo provides a neutral look that fits many kitchen styles. Because it relies on the strength of the frame screws rather than a rear cross-brace, ensuring the unit is placed against a flat surface can offer additional support during daily use.
If you find that your spice collection is growing beyond 15 jars, the expandable 2-pack of 4-tier racks offers significantly more storage capacity.
