Does the rim of the plates come up vertically, or more horizontally? Will it hold a meal with a lot of sauce?

this would be a great plate for a meal with a lot of sauce. the sides come up a bit more vertically than any normal plate. I think you would like them.

It comes up at an angle something like 45° and the rim is 1 inch high. A meal with some sauce will hold but a soupy dish will not be contained in the plate.

There really isn't much rim to the plates, while they are quite large if the sauce is rather liquid you might run into a problem

The rim comes up at about a 45 degree angle and makes the plate 3/4" to 1" deep. I wouldn't serve soup in them, of course, but stews, soup beans, and pasta with sauce are all more than adequately contained -- even when my husband carries his plate from the table to the couch to be in front of the TV.

The top is very sturdy. We eat dinner on it a lot and it holds 3 heavy plates plus other bowls and platters of food. I wouldn't sit on it or anything but I think it is very stable.

Yes, the lid is firm enough to hold the weight of another dish on top of it. I do it all the time in the fridge and freezer.

It should be okay. I use it in the kitchen to hold a lot of different cooking sauces and oils which are quite heavy.

Not stack-able. But they look great vertically and can hold one more bottle of wine if placed this way. I have two side by side. Sturdy and minimalist.

Not very well. The rack is designed for curved pans in a vertical arrangement.

The dinner plates are large. I store them in one if my cabinets that is in a corner and is deep. They look great on the table though.

The cooking surface is about 11" in diameter and the feet are hard rubber. I put two 50 lb. barbell plates on it without any issues. I think it can hold twice that.

I don't think this would fall over however I could see it rattle if there were just a couple of dishes in the holder as they would bump against each other. Having mine stacked as I do, there is no rattling because my stands are full of plates.

The way it cooks together there ARE about 4 or so small gaps between the bacon strips of the bowl. They arent huge but any liquid sauce is probably going to spill out the bottom. I have not tried cooking with more then the recommended 2.5-3 strips HOWEVER, I imagine you could keep it in, if you filled the bottom with something else like a bit of crisp lettuce, or a thin strip of meat (in the way of luncheon or something similar). I know amazon doesnt like links but I'm gonna try to share these images on imgur (dot) com. They are at "imgur (dot) com / j5D1mcK" which shows my first two bowls in comparison to a ritz cracker. One of them cooked a bit too much on the bottom compared to the one on the top. The second image is at "imgur (dot) com / moeOyQV" which shows my filled bowls. They look fairly good, and tasted good too, as I said in my review filled with chicken alfredo, crushed red pepper, parsley.

I have it tucked away due to the heavy rain we are suppose to get but just guessing, I'd say it's about table height. Easy to cook with standing up.

it has fluted sides so I'm not sure. I gave it to my daughter and she loves it..I never thought of using it for food since it's metal but i guess that would work. it is pretty deep.

I have no problem with holding big dish plate 11". Actually side bar did not even touch the plates, it sits in lower third of a plate. I am very pleased with this rack, the only problem is that for glass rack there is no drip pan, so if you want to place it in a cabinet (my case) you will need some kind of protection.

The rim is about 3/4" of an inch, leaving about 8-1/2" of usable space inside the rim. I have plenty of room for a napkin holder, bud vase, salt&pepper, and a couple of bottles of hot sauce without any problem. It's a nice piece, especially for the money.

they are fairly large. I just measured and it would hold 4 cups of food but it would be slightly heaped but not slipping. Wish I could add photo to show you it doesn't look bad.

No. It is mostly flat, but there is a slight edge to it, which is useful to keep whatever on the plate.

I think it will entirely depend on the size and shape of your dinner plates. The bed of the scale is quite large and it's well-balanced. I've had no issue with a variety of different plates and containers.
