That Temp-tations Bakers Rack is a hot mess!

Love the size, and the metal work enough but those printed shelves are a nightmare, especially when you add the printed dishes. 

 

Why they didn't just put plain shelves on those is beyond me. Way too busy for my taste.

I had to look it up and have to agree.  Even the frilly iron work doesn't agree with me.  There are many nice bakers racks, but I don't care for this one.

I only saw it briefly, but was able to discern that it was just hideous and it was also very cheap-looking, as in cheaply made.

 

I find those patterns busy also, and profoundly unappealing.  

 

Wonder how many they sold.  heh

It's very busy looking.  Not a fan of the metal scroll work.

Wouldn't the paint on those shelves eventually wear off if you slid items around on them too much?

 

Also, to me, that is a piece of furniture, and I wouldn't buy a piece of furniture with a pattern on it that I would probably tire of eventually, even if I liked it, which I don't

 

Of course, I own no Temptations, so maybe I'm no judge of how much appeal it has.

 

Years ago, I ordered  some solid dark green and dark blue Temp items that came with wicker baskets.  Sent them back in disgust.  Was going to use some as gifts, BUT  the sloppy packing job had tiny bits and pieces of broken styrofoam stuck in every nook of the wicker baskets and stuck to the dishes because of static.  I didn't even take them all out of the box, because I didn't want the clean-up job.

I wonder if the shelves are removable and could be turned upside down?

Recently got an Oragami bakers rack for less money and its better looking, holds more and is sturdy..

 

I am  afraidTara went a little over the top on this one...

I don't usually go for busy prints, but I thought it was pretty.

Of you love it, you could easily put a couple of clear coats on the shelves.  They'd help you pick the right thing at a home store.
