The Simple Houseware Adjustable Fruit Basket features a unique oblate (flattened sphere) design that measures 11 inches wide. This geometry is particularly useful for narrow kitchen corners where traditional round baskets might not fit. The vertical height of 30 inches is adjustable, allowing you to customize the spacing between tiers to accommodate larger items like pineapples or bread loaves.
The alloy steel wire is finished with a black electrostatic powder coating, designed to minimize ethylene gas buildup through maximum ventilation. While the unit provides significant vertical storage, the "S-hook" connector links are a point where care should be taken; ensure the weight is distributed evenly to avoid unbalancing the tiers. Tests show that the clips are most stable when the weight per basket does not exceed 8 lbs.
Specifications indicate that for ceiling installation, mounting the primary hook into a wood joist rather than just drywall provides the most secure support for long-term use. This helps manage the leverage created by the 30-inch vertical span when the baskets are full.
If you prefer a wall-mounted wire solution instead of a hanging ceiling model, the Ptinyiv wall baskets are a great alternative.
