The Cuisinart Chef's Classic rack is a 33-inch bar-style storage solution that uses a semi-circle grid to help distribute weight effectively. The grid is constructed from heavy-gauge stainless steel wire, providing a strong platform for both hanging pans and storing items on top. Its brushed finish is designed to maintain its look even in the high-humidity environment of a busy home kitchen.
To ensure the rack can handle the weight of heavy cast iron, it is recommended to secure the mounting points into wall studs or use high-capacity toggle bolts. Because the mounting holes are in fixed positions, they may not always line up perfectly with your home's stud spacing, so having heavy-duty anchors on hand is a good preparation step. The swivel hooks are a helpful addition, allowing you to turn your pans to different angles to save space.
If you have a tighter corner and need a smaller footprint, the Cuisinart 25-inch half-circle rack offers a similar style. You can view our full collection of wall mounted pot and pan racks for more sizes and shapes.
