Don't Buy This Spice Rack

Posted on the 15 June 2012 by Thismomloves @ThisMomLoves

I took a photo of my beautiful new "9 Can Magnetic Spice Rack" (purchased at Canadian Tire) but then didn't get around to writing up a post that day. Good thing, since by the end of the day the cans had fallen off the magnets, and I began the almost daily process of hot-glue-gunning them back on (a few each day, repeating in rotation as it happened again and again. I see now that others who reviewed the product online had the same problem).
I know, I know: I should have returned it. But the packaging was already broken down, and I would have had to empty out all the spices and wash the cans before taking it back. Plus I'm just not much of a "returner".

So while I did love the look of it when functional (for a few hours) now it sits flat on my counter, looking awkward and taking up more space. And really, nine cans isn't enough anyway, so we still have multiple other spice containers stashed away in the cupboard. Live and learn.
I don't normally bother writing about products I don't love, but I thought this one might save someone else some grief! Once summer comes and I have time to assess my kitchen cupboard situation, I will be finding another place for the spices.
