Paula Deen Pantryware Cookbook Stand, None, Bronze

Solid and sturdy. Attractive. Holds my iPad on it. Fast shipping. Might be a bit high in front for a recipe card.

Really nice cookbook stand. Very pretty. The picture does not do it justice. Perfect weight and size: it fits under the counter nicely and is not too heavy or massive but plenty substantial. The design is great! It will hold about any size cookbook you have and the angle is perfect for reading while cooking. I have about 35 cookbooks of different sizes and it works well for all of them. In addition, it does a good job of keeping the cookbook open flat. I love it! In the last ten years I have had two other stands (the plastic type with the acrylic screen that was suppose to hold the cookbook up and open and a heavy iron one which was way too bulky and heavy to be covenient. Eventually trashed them both. Neither was as functional or attractive as this one.

It arrived in a very big box and I thought, well they certainly overdid the shipping. Then I unwrapped it and it was HEAVY and bigger than I thought it'd be. I set it on my dining room table thinking that I'd try it and then just return it. Then when I put a cookbook in it it swallowed up the book. Big does not mean bad. I found that I can put 2 big cookbooks on it (side by side) and a 3rd cookbook in front of those two. Well, it is the best designed cookbook holder I have ever found. I do use more than one cookbook at a time and now I have a place to keep them all together, to use one after another. How ingenious is that? I love the Paula Deen design with the rooster on top. So charming and one of the very best tools in the kitchen.

Works very well for holding up my cook books and look amazing on my counter!

Just hope it will hold a large hard covered cookbook.
