If you find yourself ducking and diving to avoid a constant avalanche of tinned food and condiments whenever you open your kitchen cupboard to make dinner, rest assured you’re certainly not alone.
Whether you cling onto old jars and containers even when the contents are well past their best-before dates, you’re just a bit short on kitchen storage space or, perhaps, like me, you’re a keen home cook with a plethora of spices, herbs and ingredients at your disposal, it’s only too easy to over-fill your kitchen cupboard. Before you know it, just opening it to make a cup of tea has become a serious safety hazard!
I’ve been meaning to organise my kitchen cupboards for ages so, recently, I decided enough is enough and I started browsing the internet for clever storage solutions to help me get organised.
When I came across the Yaheetech Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack, I thought I’d give it a go as I’ve heard good things about Yaheetech over the last few years or so. Based in Suffolk, they’re a UK-based online retailer specialising in a broad range of goods, all produced within the UK. Besides kitchen storage solutions, they offer everything from office and commercial furniture, to home and kitchenware, sporting and outdoors products, pet supplies, beauty and personal care item, and more.
Why I rate Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack so highly
Having already tried out a few kitchen storage solutions in the past, and spent hours browsing online recently for the latest space-saving products and gadgets, I’m incredibly impressed at just how handy Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack has been at helping me to better organise my kitchen cupboard.
Here’s why I love it so much:
- Eight tiers of storage space
With eight shelves to store your kitchen contents on, you certainly won’t be short on storage space anymore. The unit’s upper ‘hutch’ comprises four shelves, a stemware holder and a grid organiser, helping you to organise smaller cooking gadgets and barware. In addition, under the countertop, you’ll find pull-out wire basket, a wine rack (more on that below), two side rods, two height-adjustable open shelves and a generously-sized bottom shelf, all of which combine to provide a nifty solution to your kitchen storage challenges.
- Rustic, homely wooden design
Although the very title of this product suggests that it belongs in the kitchen, in actual fact, Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack will fit in perfectly fine in your lounge or dining room too.
Thanks to the rustic, dark wood the rack is made from, it won’t look too industrial or out of place stored in most rooms of your house, your kitchen aside. The stemware holder and built-in wine rack helps to make the unit look more inviting, too – more on that below.
- Built-in wine rack and stemware holder
One of my favourite things about Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack is that it has a built-in wine rack. What’s more, it’s been clevely built on a slight slant to ensure the corks always stay moist, avoiding oxidation. I’ve never had space for a wine rack in my shared kitchen before and, as a passionate wine drinker, I love having somewhere to store my bottle collection.
Another reason I love the built-in wine rack is because, if you’re short on space in your kitchen, you could choose to place the storage rack in your dining room instead and, thanks to the addition of the wine rack, it shouldn’t look too out of place as it gives off more of a homely feel.
What’s more, as the unit also features a handy stemware holder and grid rack, you won’t even need to head back into the kitchen for wine glasses, as you can store them in the rack for ease of access.
- Large-capacity microwave oven rack
One of the downfalls of the kitchen storage units I’ve tried out in the past has been the lack of space in which to store a microwave; while some of the storage racks I’ve tried have had a designated microwave space built-in, unfortunately, it hasn’t been large enough or strong enough to support the microwave I own.
Thankfully, however, Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack has a purpose-built space designed for storing a big microwave up to 560lbs in weight. My microwave slots perfectly into the rack now, helping me to free up more space on my kitchen worktops for food preparation.
- Height-adjustable shelves
Being just 4 ft 11 in height, this one is a biggie for me! One of the best features of Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack is the ability to customise the height of the shelves. No need to worry about hurting your back is you bend down to reach items on the bottom shelf, or having to stand on a chair to reach the top. It couldn’t be easier to adjust the height of the shelves to suit your preferred level – in fact, you’ll be able to set the height of the shelves as you’re assembling the rack for the first time.
So, as you can see, Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack has a number of distinct selling points which help to make it the ideal solution to those overflowing kitchen cupboards. Now you can probably understand why I love it so much; decluttering my kitchen has not only helped me to improve its overall look and feel, but it also helps me to feel calmer when I’m cooking in my kitchen and/or socialising with friends in the space, too.
To buy Yaheetech’s Kitchen Storage Baker’s Rack, simply check-out their Amazon store for the best deals and fastest delivery timescales; I paid around £150 for my rack, but it’s been worth every penny so far!
