FIFO Pantry Storage Organizer Dispenser Rack for Canned Goods/Drinks, 54-Can Capacity

Love the FIFO system I have 4 of these. Easier to see what you have & how many then when they are in a dark pantry on shelves & might get pushed behind other cans. The screws are heavy duty plastic as the over all entire system. They are very easy to use & only weight a few pounds each. When used on a completely flat surface they are very stable & even placed a shelf across the top for a few cans that don't fit in the system. The system is also adjustable to make smaller cans fit as well.

Works great! Love it and how it organizes party of the chaos I call a pantry. Great quality!

This is a great product because you can adjust them to fit the various size of cans. However, I had issues putting it together because turning the dowels to lock them was so hard that I had to use lubricant to get them to turn. Once I used the lubricant I had no issues putting it together quickly. Great idea, but not executed very well.

This is so cool. I use it for catfood, the little cans. It was easy to assemble once I figured out what needed to happen.

Worth the price

Pros: 1) I had a LOT of fun putting this together. 2) Modular design provides MANY options re: width. 3) Sturdy design. Cons: 1) Not TRULY first-in-first-out, unless .... 2) Sometimes, the can "hangs-up" when trying to remove from bottom row. 3) Won't work w/ cans larger than 15oz; dicey w/ tuna/cat-food cans. 4) About $10 overpriced, especially w/ the problems. I bought two units. This was to take advantage of the modular design, and allow me flexibility in how I'd ultimately arrange the unit(s). These are extremely easy to assemble, and a LOT of fun. Any kid who can build things w/ Legos can put this together. In fact, you might want one to do it for you (see below). It is also a sturdy unit. There is some flexibility at the front, but this is somewhat advantageous for loading/unloading. I immediately began "playing around" to find out its capabilities. Back to that kid. I found the LONG dowels easy to twist, however, the SHORT dowels difficult, but do-able since I have medium sized hands. Small hands would have no problem. Before I move on to the Cons, let me elaborate on flexibility of the modular design w/ some actual dimensions (+/- 1/8"): 1) The width for a single LONG channel, is 7"; but the width for two LONG units is only, 11.5". 2) Width for a single SHORT channel, is 6", the width for two SHORT units is, 9.25". 3) Width for 3 LONG channels (typ assembly), is 16.25", w/ 4 LONG channels at 21" 4) Width for 2 LONG & 1 SHORT channels (alt typ), is 15.25"; 3 LONG & 1 SHORT, 19.75". 5) 2 LONG & 2 SHORT, 18.75"; 3 LONG & 2 SHORT, 23.75"; 4 LONG & 2 SHORT, 28" 6) While I wasn't gonna, 5 LONG & 2 SHORT, 32.25"; 6 LONG & 1 SHORT, 33.75". As others have stated, the middle row does NOT empty second. As the bottom row is used, cans from the TOP row will follow. ONLY when there are no cans in the top row, will the MIDDLE row move into the bottom, but USUALLY only w/ some "nudging" (can also reach into empty top row to aid the lead middle row can). If one loads from the top until both the bottom & top rows are full (the middle will remain empty) and THEN loads the middle row, it will function as FIFO, in a matter of speaking. To avoid an essentially empty channel, one could continue to load the newest cans on the top row, place the OLDEST cans in the middle (from the bottom front), then use the middle row FIRST, which is what I intend on doing IF I keep these units (not finding anything better out there). Due to the opening on both SIDES of the bottom opening, the edge of the can can/will "catch" on the upper edge of the opening. This could easily been avoided, simply by having this area solid. While I haven't done it, I suspect that using masking/duct tape across these openings will prevent this. While I knew by reading reviews that they wouldn't work, but just to round it out, I did play around w/ larger than 15oz cans. Most simply won't fit into the channel. A 18.5oz Progresso soup can will fit into upper row, slide properly, but can't get past the bottom row dowel. Too bad the bottom row wasn't just a little taller. I played w/ two tuna cans. If a single can is loaded flat in either top or middle row, it slides just fine into the bottom (flat). If two cans are loaded together flat in top row (won't fit in middle row opening) they jam trying to get down back chute, but two stacked cans won't fit past dowel anyway (same thing for can on short edge at outer end chases). A can WILL fit on long edge under dowel. PERHAPS, if bottom is first stacked w/ cans on long edge, then MAYBE cans loaded flat on middle row could fall on edge into chute, to replenish bottom row. To be determined by others. One last thought. A single unit comes w/ 12 long dowels & 3 short. A total of 6 will be left over, as noted in instructions. It would have been nice to have instead been given 9 long & 6 short. 6 will still be left over, but this allows more flexibility if two or three units are purchased, re: the number of short channels, especially if the tuna/cat-food can thing works.

Just got two of these and set them up in my cellar. Set up is quite easy, you just have to snap (force) the spacer pegs into the holes, then twist to secure. I had to use a wrench, as suggested in the instructions, to turn the pegs. In the sample picture, you can see green cans on the left and right sections, and yellow in the center. The center yellow cans are separated by three shorter pegs. You can choose to put those in, or just use three of the longer pegs instead, which would give you three sections of larger (15 oz) cans. It comes with extra pegs so you can pick. The cool thing is if your shelf is long enough, you can attach two units together - so you just keep going after you build the first three sections (as shown in the picture) and add the next three on, with a section in between, instead of 3+3=6, you get 3+3+1 (in the middle) = 7. Each unit comes with six extra pegs, three short ones for the smaller section if you want it, and three extra to attach another whole unit to the side of the first. Each section holds 16 or more cans, I don't know, I don't have that many cans of one type. I ended up putting a [...] case (12 cans) in the top, which means they roll out the bottom, and then putting three or four other cans in the middle. The middle ones don't join the roll toward the bottom until there's about five of the bottom cans left. The shelves are made of a strong sturdy plastic, and a smart design. They don't hold the big soup cans (18-19 oz) just the regular 15 oz cans.

works great, may need 2 people to put together
