Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wilton 3 Piece Stackable Cooling RackCustomer Review: Space saving racks for large batch baking Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these at a store that I worked for that sold Wilton accessories, thinking they looked like they might be useful and knowing I could use a 40% off coupon, making them an excellent deal. I figured I had little to lose.
I bake A LOT during the winter holiday season, and one of the most annoying things has always been finding enough counter space for everything. These racks work amazingly well at saving just a little bit more space for mixing the next batch of cookies or what-have-you. There is just enough room between the racks for cookies and such to still cool quickly, and they stack very nicely. I have no regrets about buying them, and, knowing what I know now, I would pay full price if I had to do so.
A couple tips for those using them:
- It's WAAAY easier to fill the bottom one, the set the next one on top before putting anything on them. This might seem like a given to some of you, but I tried to fill them and then stack them because I was flustered by too much going on in the kitchen and the newness of the racks. It happens. Fill one, set the next one on top, then fill it, set the next one on, and fill. Easy, no?
- You may get a bit frustrated with the way they stack. The are a teeny bit wobbly. That is because they fold. If they didn't fold, if they were all one solid piece, the would be much more sturdy. When you are trying to get both legs to stand up on the rack below in just the right way the first time and muttering curses under your breath, remind yourself that you are GLAD that they fold, or they'd be MISERABLE to find room for in your kitchen.
- KEEP THE BOX! When you fold them up again after using them, put them back in the box and store them that way. Then you won't have to worry about legs falling open all over the place, and you can store them on their side instead of flat where they take up more room.
The only other issue I had was that cleaning them is annoying, but that is true of all cooling racks, and these were no better or worse.
Good luck!
