I've not seen that. Yes, they are smooth, but the weight of the cans and jars against the wire frame through the plastic keeps everything in place with no problem.

The shelf liners are smooth on on one side and a little ruff on the outher side they should work for you.hope this helps you out, one last thing though they are very thin I wish they were a little thicker though.

Cheapest way to handle this if you have already purchased, is to buy a can of rubber cement and brush a light coating around the edges of the shelf liner. Let dry. Any object coming in contact with the rubber cement will stop sliding and would need to be picked up to move further on. Another idea is to use the rubber cement to hold popsicle sticks in a row and allow you to make guiding rows for can goods to keep in line. Have fun and always keep asking questions, you never know what might end up helping you or another later on in life.

on my container the metal is on the outside of the jar. it is lined in plastic on the inside and the metal fits on the outside of the jar, the plastic part fits inside of the glass and makes a tight fit to keep everything fresh. i am very pleased with my purchase. the glass is thick and the container is well worth the price.

It's solid. I live in a relatively dry climate so moisture hasn't been a problem. I am not sure how it is in a more moisture driven climate but I can tell you I have never appreciated a shelf liner so much. This stuff is great!

I didn't buy the plastic liners. I simply cut the box the shelves came in and used the pieces as liners. I have all of my laundry detergent, fabric softener, etc. on top of the cardboard. If spills occur, I simply wipe the cardboard.

No the jars were pretty clear and very cute. My daughter used them to make the green jalapeno jelly and they looked really nice. We would recommend them in a heart beat!

I am sorry to hear that, for you and for me! I bought 7 of them. Lost 1 jar due to a branch hitting it. (High Winds)We get raccoons so I automatically added bungie cords around the jars and boxes. Also, we did notice the staples and added nails and put them up on the trees with screws.I decided when I need replacements I will get plastic gallon jars through uline.comYou can get a case of replacements for 10-15 dollars! They have a 4" mouth and I will just make the box opening a little wider.Good luck!! �

From the pictures, it looks like there are definitely edges around the shelves. You might want to try the Trinity Utility cart, there are no edges on that one.

If I understand your questions correctly, the jars have the word "Ball" on the outside. Meaning that while teh inside is smooth with no ridges, the outside is raised. Hope this helps.

I'm sure it's not PET, same for polypropylene, polycarbonate is a possibility but the clarity seems a bit better than that, not to mention the price is a tad more reasonable. I'm a carpenter and not a chemist so this is only a guess - I'm going with Acrylic, based only on clarity and price. One thing to keep in mind is that I use these jars to store meds for a cat who might only live another six months so I'm not worried about contaminants. If you're young enough to be worried about out gassing, BPA or other possible plastic corruption to foodstuffs then store them in glass only.

Mine was smooth but when I took the lid off it cracked and chunks of hard plastic went everywhere. I just bagged it to keep it from getting dry. I make creams and as I used my last batch it got clumpy and crumbly but performed just as well.

Yes, the shelves slide easily. It does not convert from a 38 bottle, that is standard. Thank you

The metal is not coated with anything. Because of how the lids are supported, they don't rub or slide against each other -- a much more likely way for them to be damaged. I used to keep my lids in a drawer where they did slide around. And I often had to dig around to find the lid I wanted. Now I can open the cupboard, slide the lids out and pick the one I want.I've been using the one I bought for five months and I love it.

The jar is plastic, which I know bothers some people. I'm not bothered by the possible harmful effects of plastic jars in this type of situation, and I'm sure the product would be much more expensive if it was in a glass jar.

The picture shows it sliding sideways....there isn't any seal but the lid sits well over the compartments. It's a good way for me to use it since I keep Kosher salt and ground fresh pepper in mine. I'm very satisfied and happy with mine. I hope my answer helps you decide what to do.

They are sort of hard. I would compare the flexibility to that if an old film canister lid. The tops are not as hard as the other 2 pieces though.

I didnt like the lines it was clear but not as clear as I wanted. I have started buying the Duck Tape brand shelf liner and lovveee it! Perfect for vinyl. Not too sticky and is absolutely see thro! I hope that helps!

Hi Dee, I'm just seeing this question now. The other comments are correct, there shouldn't be any grittiness. It should be smooth and creamy. Your jar may have been subjected to heat during shipping. Please email me (if you haven't already) and I'll send you a replacement jar right away. Kenny CEO Christina Moss Naturals
