The Trecaan Fruit Basket system offers a vertical footprint designed for small kitchen counters. It utilizes powder-coated carbon steel wire with a frame diameter of approximately 2.8mm. The open wire spacing is optimized for airflow, which helps maintain the freshness of root vegetables. This set features an engineered wood lid that provides a contrasting aesthetic and an additional surface for lightweight items.
The baskets are designed to be stackable using gravity-fit tabs, though they can also be hung on a wall. When stacked, the unit is most stable when the bottom bin is kept weighted. For wall-mounted use, tests indicate that the wire mesh at the hanging points is best suited for loads under 8 lbs. Because the wood lid is not treated with a heavy hydrophobic sealant, it is a practical step to keep it dry and away from high-moisture areas to prevent any warping.
Specifications & Constraints
- Material: Powder-coated steel frame with an engineered wood/bamboo lid.
- Stability: Stacked units are most secure when placed on level surfaces.
- Maintenance: The wire intersections may collect dust and are best cleaned with a damp cloth or compressed air.
If you are looking for a wall-hanging option made from natural seagrass instead of wire, the Storageworks 2-pack may be worth considering.
