Bought these for a kitchen update a year ago, so we could hang our cast iron griddle and vintage cornbread iron. We use all these vintage cast irons for cooking, so we needed something tough, durable, strong enough to hold the weight of these heavy pans long term, and something that allows us to grab whichever pan we need to use easily. If you use a lot of cast iron like us, then you know, nothing is more frustrating than having to stack your pans and griddles so they weigh a ton and you can't get to the bottom one without removing 30lb of iron above it. Just not feasible.This system works perfectly. Even our great-grandpa's butcher knife is hung neatly and without damage. Perfectly accessible, tidy, and even kinda cool looking, IMHO. If we need it, we can just grab it off the hook, use, clean and hang it back up.These hooks are perfect. They hold a ton of weight, can be used to hang all manner of things, and are veey affordable.Just one tip... If you are hanging something heavy, make sure you tap into a stud. ? Despite other reviews taking issue with the supplied screws, we have had no problems whatsoever.
