Is the larger side big enough to hold paper plates?

The side that has no dividers? Yes, I believe it can. I would probably have the handle down though.

I think your square plates will enter the space to hold mugs and glasses. I don't think you'd be able to hold mugs and plates simultaneously. I'm not sure if it holds 5.5 inch mugs

The interior measurement on the long side is about 8 1/2", so yes for 8" plates.

probably not because it would not hold my square plates either. I know it will hold a dinner plate that is 10".

Yes. I have it on the side where it is lowest next to the rounded plate holder. On the end like in the picture made the rack too long for my space. I LOVE this dish rack.

I don't think it is deep enough to hold plates, but could hold smaller dishes. It is smaller than it looks in the picture, so check the measurements. I use it for DVD storage in the living room and it works great. It is very pretty and well made.

This caddy easily holds my 10" plates and I think it would very easily accommodate 12" plates. I love it!! Just checked my china plates which are about 12" and it works great. Goes perfectly with any decor.

The larger of the two trays is 12" by 91/2". Neither will hold a standard size dinner plate. However they are well made and attractive as servers.

You could display a dinner plate or a larger platter. I just tried it out to make sure.

No, the sides are high enough that it holds the paper upright. I have 3 of these and love them.

Technically I think it would hold up an 11" plate, but it would look too big in my opinion, the shelf parts are only about 4" wide.

Yes, definitely is! Large enough for Dinner-size Napkins, rolled cloth napkins; or if you're using paper type dinnerware/napkins, this compartment can hold some of each. Wonderful product, beautiful to look at, well-made. Good buy. Hope this helps :)

I unfortunately do not own any of the smaller cheeky plates, so I am not sure. Sorry :(. If it helps, I store konad, red angel, mash and bundle monster plates on this folio

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.

Hi Sue, The short answer is "no". The long answer is the shelves are 10 3/4" deep and there is a space between the shelf and the door of 1 3/4" so the largest plate would have to be 12 1/2" or less. Another issue with using this as a china cabinet is that there is a vertical partition in the center of the cabinet running from top to bottom making the shelves are only 15" long. So with this cabinet you will have 6 shelves that are 15" X 10 3/4" (plus the 1 3/4" between the shelves and the door). The size of the shelves may work for you, it may just not hold as much china as if the shelves were 10 3/4" by 31". It is a well made cabinet, but follow the directions carefully putting it together because the pieces are not interchangeable from left to right. Possibly you could display the large plate on top or put it somewhere else. I hope this info is helpful. If I may be of further assistance, please let me know. Kind regards, Marlene

I would say yes. They are sturdy yet elegant. The sizes of the plates is a plus for me.

I am sure you could. I have oversized dinner plates and they fit nicely. I was able to fit 8 of them in there no problem.
