Editor's Notes
September 01, 2020:
Hanging fruit baskets do everything regular countertop fruit baskets can without taking up much-desired kitchen real estate. There’s a lot of places to hang them, from walls and ceilings, to cabinets and pantry doors, so feel free to get creative. However, if you are running out of places to put things in your kitchen, just a friendly reminder that you can always get an island cart to help you along.
Where safety and the hanging of storage containers are concerned, there’s a number of hazards you should keep in mind. Starting with installation, if you purchase a wall mounted model like the Granrosi Stylish Storage or MyGift Deluxe Rack, it’s better to use a stud finder before you start drilling and screwing things in. This is not only so you can figure out what sort of mounting hardware you should use, but to make sure there aren’t any live electrical wires hiding in unexpected places.
Once you get things safely and securely installed, please be sure not to overload your basket. While models like the Le Verre Counter Organizer are very sturdy and offer a lot of space, we would advise you to follow manufacturer’s guidelines where weight capacities are concerned. Most produce isn’t that heavy, and people use hanging fruit baskets everyday, so you’ll be able to enjoy your purchase perfectly if you take all the proper precautions.
