Kait Reviews: Coffee Pod Rack

I received the Coffee Pod Rack through a promotion.

14.5" tall

The Nespresso Coffee Pod Rack is is made with chrome wire and a stainless steel finish. It looks very nice. I had thought it'd be heavier by the way it looked than what it actually was. It's pretty lightweight, yet the wires in the rack and the bottom of the carousel is fairly sturdy. The rack doesn't bend or break even if it accidentally gets dropped or falls to the floor.

The carousel part of the pod rack reminds me of a Lazy Susan. It spins very smoothly. It makes turning the rack easy and with very little effort.

When I first got this product, I was really hoping that it'd work for Keurig coffee pods, since that's what I have at home. At first, I was really disappointed when I tried to put my Keurig 2.0 pods in the rack. The space between the wires is too small for the lid or bigger part to go into the rack, as you would for the Nespresso coffee pods. I didn't think of trying to put Keurig coffee pods until after I saw another review on Amazon where the reivewer had images showing how they got the K-cups to fit. The K-cups do fit in snuggly using the bottom of the cup. The rack gives it a slight squeeze, but it's not enough to break or damage the pod. It does keep the pod in place. With having the K-cups fit in this way, you're able to see what flavors or types you have in the rack and how many. To get the coffee pods out, either slide the top one up to pop out or the bottom one down to where the openings are bigger in the rack.
