"Functional and useful answer to my knife problems"
I searched for some time for the "right" knife holder, one that would not take much space, but that would hold every knife I use regularly. This compact unit does the job beautifully. The magnets are strong, and hold even the knives with the thinnest blades easily, and was easy to attach to the wall. 14" of the 15" is usable, though I do wish they had incorporated some way to store my knife sharpening steel as well, but a heavy duty cup hook took care of that.

I have nine knives on the bar, ranging from the thinnest paring knife to the sturdiest chef's knife and can easily remove and replace them with ease, and nothing ever slips or slides. Well done!

"Perfect!"
This is perfect, its strong enough for even my largest knife! I have a small apartment kitchen and about 6 - 7 knives (4 large ones) and others that are medium to small all fit with ease. Its very handy and once away from traffic is a safe way to store knives!

"Form and Function"
This knife bar looks very sharp hanging in my kitchen. I don't know why I stuck with that ugly, unhygienic, counter-hogging butcher block for so long! It mounted easily, is sturdy and has just the right amount of magnetism. My only advice would be to get two! I find myself sticking all kinds of kitchen utensils to this, and no more "losing" the scissors.

"Don't buy this knife rack! Designed very poorly"
When knives are stored on this rack, the blade of the knife rests directly perpendicular to the stainless steel frame of the knife rack. When the user wants to store it or remove it from the rack, it is very difficult to do so without letting the edge of the knife hit the stainless steel frame. I have good, expensive knives, which I want to keep for my lifetime, and I never let them hit metal. And now with this rack it is nearly impossible to put the knife onto the rack, or remove it from the rack without letting the blade come into contact with the stainless steel. The only way to do it is to put the spine of the knife against the rack, and then slowly rotate the knife until it is resting flat against the magnet. When removing the knife, the reverse of the process must be done. If they had put a slim strip of rubber all the way around the perimeter (similar knife magnets have this), it would prevent the blade from touching the rack, thereby protecting the knives. I find it amazing that this model is reviewed so highly, because this is a problem that everyone has to encounter.

"Works perfect!"
It works perfect for my house. I have only one knife on it but it is strong and there is no fear of it falling. The price was great. No complaints here.
