Can I use this to store onions and potatoes instead of bread? Is it safe for that?

I am not really sure but, would think that the wood being thin on back ( maybe ply wood) would pick up odor of onions but, don't really know.

I wouldn't store onions in it as they need a more ventilated area for storage but I think it would work for storing potatoes. To be on the safe side I would recommend calling customer service & asking them.

I use it for bread--and it holds 4 medium size loaves of Rye bread. I have not tried storing onions or potatoes in it but it won't hold but 1 of either one.

Yes you can! Currently, I have a two-slicer toaster oven on the top shelf. I also store snack like granola bar boxes, chips and cookie bins. This is a great bakers rack!

Fruits, vegetables, potatoes and onions fit great in the bottom cubbies. You could also fit shorter loaves of bread in the cubbies as well. Otherwise loaves of bread do fit well on the shelf lengthwise as the shelf is only 8" deep and about 21" long.

I use mine for home made bread. Good quality, wash well - they shrink in the first wash, but stay the same thereafter; this is included in the product detail in the fine print. Its the organic bit that's probably the justification for a slightly higher price point. Personally, I put cheese in plastic too. They do not seal. The muslin are great for say potatoes, carrots and other root veg. Greens in my opinion keep longer in the fridge in plastic. You can google the best storage methods for the particular produce you want to store.

Never tried baking potatoes in it but I guess you could. The dials could be confusing for toasting or baking but I haven't found any other units that are better for this price range.

Not understanding that first answer. I have 2 stacked to separate potatoes and onions. Very happy with them.

It's not really usable as a bread spread, but it's great for adding to vegetables or rice. You can add some of the powder to hot water, stir it up, add a few spices and drizzle over baked potatoes for a buttery sauce.

I wouldn't attempt to to anything that is not the consistency of cooked potatoes. I suggest a meat grinder for meat and poultry.

YES! It will store 2 standard-sized loaves of bread easily. I hope this helps.

The rack is safe when you are baking food in the oven that you do not want submerged in food oil. You can also, cool baked goods on it.

I guess you could, although they are not air tight. I purchased them to store dry cat food and bird seed, and they are PERFECT for that. They are good quality, sturdy and convenient with the flip up lid.

Yeah, that would be fine. Just don't put anything like Onions or other acidic foods in there.

I do my onions and potatoes by hand. I'm pretty fast so I don't bother using this. I have another toy for that if I want.

I have this same container and although I haven't used it for homemade bread I do use mine for bakery bought bread. It really seems to keep the bread fresher longer.

I don't store dry food in mine. I use it for office supplies. The seal isn't air proof.

I wouldn't use this for food storage at all ! it not made for that, it's not ait tight, you have no idea if the material if free of toxins or full of them. A better idea would be to but a Vittels Vault, they're great for food storage, they lock down air tight. Amazon carries them in many sizes I suggest checking them out.

I use the baskets for my onions , bread and anything light weight yes they slide in and out very easily. I put potatoes on bottom rack.
